Subject: mm/gup: disallow FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE on hugetlb mappings
Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2022 16:25:24 +0100
hugetlb does not support fake write-faults (write faults without write
permissions). However, we are currently able to trigger a
FAULT_FLAG_WRITE fault on a VMA without VM_WRITE.
If we'd ever want to support FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE, we'd have to teach
hugetlb to:
(1) Leave the page mapped R/O after the fake write-fault, like
maybe_mkwrite() does.
(2) Allow writing to an exclusive anon page that's mapped R/O when
FOLL_FORCE is set, like can_follow_write_pte(). E.g.,
__follow_hugetlb_must_fault() needs adjustment.
For now, it's not clear if that added complexity is really required.
History tolds us that FOLL_FORCE is dangerous and that we better limit its
use to a bare minimum.

if (map == MAP_FAILED) {
fprintf(stderr, "mmap() failed: %d\n", errno);
return 1;
}
mem_fd = open("/proc/self/mem", O_RDWR);
if (mem_fd < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "open(/proc/self/mem) failed: %d\n", errno);
return 1;
}
if (pwrite(mem_fd, "0", 1, (uintptr_t) map) == 1) {
fprintf(stderr, "write() succeeded, which is unexpected\n");
return 1;
}
printf("write() failed as expected: %d\n", errno);
return 0;
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fortunately, we have a sanity check in hugetlb_wp() in place ever since
commit 1d8d14641fd9 ("mm/hugetlb: support write-faults in shared
mappings"), that bails out instead of silently mapping a page writable in
a !PROT_WRITE VMA.
Consequently, above reproducer triggers a warning, similar to the one
reported by szsbot:

So let's silence that warning by teaching GUP code that FOLL_FORCE -- so
far -- does not apply to hugetlb.
Note that FOLL_FORCE for read-access seems to be working as expected. The
assumption is that this has been broken forever, only ever since above
commit, we actually detect the wrong handling and WARN_ON_ONCE().
I assume this has been broken at least since 2014, when mm/gup.c came to
life. I failed to come up with a suitable Fixes tag quickly.
