Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
40d6366e9d
When we try to visit the pagemap of a tagged userspace pointer, we find
that the start_vaddr is not correct because of the tag.
To fix it, we should untag the userspace pointers in pagemap_read().
I tested with 5.10-rc4 and the issue remains.
Explanation from Catalin in [1]:
"Arguably, that's a user-space bug since tagged file offsets were never
supported. In this case it's not even a tag at bit 56 as per the arm64
tagged address ABI but rather down to bit 47. You could say that the
problem is caused by the C library (malloc()) or whoever created the
tagged vaddr and passed it to this function. It's not a kernel
regression as we've never supported it.
Now, pagemap is a special case where the offset is usually not
generated as a classic file offset but rather derived by shifting a
user virtual address. I guess we can make a concession for pagemap
(only) and allow such offset with the tag at bit (56 - PAGE_SHIFT + 3)"
My test code is based on [2]:
A userspace pointer which has been tagged by 0xb4: 0xb400007662f541c8
userspace program:
uint64 OsLayer::VirtualToPhysical(void *vaddr) {
uint64 frame, paddr, pfnmask, pagemask;
int pagesize = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE);
off64_t off = ((uintptr_t)vaddr) / pagesize * 8; // off = 0xb400007662f541c8 / pagesize * 8 = 0x5a00003b317aa0
int fd = open(kPagemapPath, O_RDONLY);
...
if (lseek64(fd, off, SEEK_SET) != off || read(fd, &frame, 8) != 8) {
int err = errno;
string errtxt = ErrorString(err);
if (fd >= 0)
close(fd);
return 0;
}
...
}
kernel fs/proc/task_mmu.c:
static ssize_t pagemap_read(struct file *file, char __user *buf,
size_t count, loff_t *ppos)
{
...
src = *ppos;
svpfn = src / PM_ENTRY_BYTES; // svpfn == 0xb400007662f54
start_vaddr = svpfn << PAGE_SHIFT; // start_vaddr == 0xb400007662f54000
end_vaddr = mm->task_size;
/* watch out for wraparound */
// svpfn == 0xb400007662f54
// (mm->task_size >> PAGE) == 0x8000000
if (svpfn > mm->task_size >> PAGE_SHIFT) // the condition is true because of the tag 0xb4
start_vaddr = end_vaddr;
ret = 0;
while (count && (start_vaddr < end_vaddr)) { // we cannot visit correct entry because start_vaddr is set to end_vaddr
int len;
unsigned long end;
...
}
...
}

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
