Subject: [PATCH V3] mm: fix use-after free of page_ext after race with memory-offline
Date:   Tue, 9 Aug 2022 20:16:43 +0530
Message-ID: <1660056403-20894-1-git-send-email-quic_charante@quicinc.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
Precedence: bulk

The below is one path where race between page_ext and  offline of the
respective memory blocks will cause use-after-free on the access of
page_ext structure.

process1		              process2
---------                             ---------
a)doing /proc/page_owner           doing memory offline
			           through offline_pages.

b)PageBuddy check is failed
thus proceed to get the
page_owner information
through page_ext access.
page_ext = lookup_page_ext(page);

				    migrate_pages();
				    .................
				Since all pages are successfully
				migrated as part of the offline
				operation,send MEM_OFFLINE notification
				where for page_ext it calls:
				offline_page_ext()-->
				__free_page_ext()-->
				   free_page_ext()-->
				     vfree(ms->page_ext)
			           mem_section->page_ext = NULL

c) Check for the PAGE_EXT flags
in the page_ext->flags access
results into the use-after-free(leading
to the translation faults).

As mentioned above, there is really no synchronization between page_ext
access and its freeing in the memory_offline.

The memory offline steps(roughly) on a memory block is as below:
1) Isolate all the pages
2) while(1)
  try free the pages to buddy.(->free_list[MIGRATE_ISOLATE])
3) delete the pages from this buddy list.
4) Then free page_ext.(Note: The struct page is still alive as it is
freed only during hot remove of the memory which frees the memmap, which
steps the user might not perform).

This design leads to the state where struct page is alive but the struct
page_ext is freed, where the later is ideally part of the former which
just representing the page_flags (check [3] for why this design is
chosen).

The above mentioned race is just one example __but the problem persists
in the other paths too involving page_ext->flags access(eg:
page_is_idle())__. Since offline waits till the last reference on the
page goes down i.e. any path that took the refcount on the page can make
the memory offline operation to wait. Eg: In the migrate_pages()
operation, we do take the extra refcount on the pages that are under
migration and then we do copy page_owner by accessing page_ext.

Fix those paths where offline races with page_ext access by maintaining
synchronization with rcu lock and is achieved in 3 steps:
1) Invalidate all the page_ext's of the sections of a memory block by
storing a flag in the LSB of mem_section->page_ext.

2) Wait till all the existing readers to finish working with the
->page_ext's with synchronize_rcu(). Any parallel process that starts
after this call will not get page_ext, through lookup_page_ext(), for
the block parallel offline operation is being performed.

3) Now safely free all sections ->page_ext's of the block on which
offline operation is being performed.

Note: If synchronize_rcu() takes time then optimizations can be done in
this path through call_rcu()[2].

Thanks to David Hildenbrand for his views/suggestions on the initial
discussion[1] and Pavan kondeti for various inputs on this patch.

Changes in V3:
   o Exposed page_ext_get/put() and hid lookup_page_ext to get page_ext information.
   o Converted the call sites to use single interface i.e.page_ext_get/put().
   o Placed rcu_lock held checks where required.
   o Improved the commit message.  

Changes in V2:
   o Use only page_ext_get/put() to get the page_ext in the
     required paths. Add proper comments for them.
   o Use synchronize_rcu() only once instead of calling it for
     every mem_section::page_ext of a memory block.
   o Free'd page_ext in 3 steps of invalidate, wait till all the
     users are finished using and then finally free page_ext.
   o https://lore.kernel.org/all/1658931303-17024-1-git-send-email-quic_charante@quicinc.com/

Changes in V1:
   o Used the RCU lock while accessing the page_ext in the paths that
     can race with the memory offline operation.
   o Introduced (get|put)_page_ext() function to get the page_ext of page.
   o https://lore.kernel.org/all/1657810063-28938-1-git-send-email-quic_charante@quicinc.com/
