mm: hugetlb: add huge page size param to set_huge_pte_at()
Patch series "Fix set_huge_pte_at() panic on arm64", v2. This series fixes a bug in arm64's implementation of set_huge_pte_at(), which can result in an unprivileged user causing a kernel panic. The problem was triggered when running the new uffd poison mm selftest for HUGETLB memory. This test (and the uffd poison feature) was merged for v6.5-rc7. Ideally, I'd like to get this fix in for v6.6 and I've cc'ed stable (correctly this time) to get it backported to v6.5, where the issue first showed up. Description of Bug ================== arm64's huge pte implementation supports multiple huge page sizes, some of which are implemented in the page table with multiple contiguous entries. So set_huge_pte_at() needs to work out how big the logical pte is, so that it can also work out how many physical ptes (or pmds) need to be written. It previously did this by grabbing the folio out of the pte and querying its size. However, there are cases when the pte being set is actually a swap entry. But this also used to work fine, because for huge ptes, we only ever saw migration entries and hwpoison entries. And both of these types of swap entries have a PFN embedded, so the code would grab that and everything still worked out. But over time, more calls to set_huge_pte_at() have been added that set swap entry types that do not embed a PFN. And this causes the code to go bang. The triggering case is for the uffd poison test, commit 99aa77215ad0 ("selftests/mm: add uffd unit test for UFFDIO_POISON"), which causes a PTE_MARKER_POISONED swap entry to be set, coutesey of commit 8a13897fb0da ("mm: userfaultfd: support UFFDIO_POISON for hugetlbfs") - added in v6.5-rc7. Although review shows that there are other call sites that set PTE_MARKER_UFFD_WP (which also has no PFN), these don't trigger on arm64 because arm64 doesn't support UFFD WP. If CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled, we do at least get a BUG(), but otherwise, it will dereference a bad pointer in page_folio(): static inline struct folio *hugetlb_swap_entry_to_folio(swp_entry_t entry) { VM_BUG_ON(!is_migration_entry(entry) && !is_hwpoison_entry(entry)); return page_folio(pfn_to_page(swp_offset_pfn(entry))); } Fix === The simplest fix would have been to revert the dodgy cleanup commit 18f3962953e4 ("mm: hugetlb: kill set_huge_swap_pte_at()"), but since things have moved on, this would have required an audit of all the new set_huge_pte_at() call sites to see if they should be converted to set_huge_swap_pte_at(). As per the original intent of the change, it would also leave us open to future bugs when people invariably get it wrong and call the wrong helper. So instead, I've added a huge page size parameter to set_huge_pte_at(). This means that the arm64 code has the size in all cases. It's a bigger change, due to needing to touch the arches that implement the function, but it is entirely mechanical, so in my view, low risk. I've compile-tested all touched arches; arm64, parisc, powerpc, riscv, s390, sparc (and additionally x86_64). I've additionally booted and run mm selftests against arm64, where I observe the uffd poison test is fixed, and there are no other regressions. This patch (of 2): In order to fix a bug, arm64 needs to be told the size of the huge page for which the pte is being set in set_huge_pte_at(). Provide for this by adding an `unsigned long sz` parameter to the function. This follows the same pattern as huge_pte_clear(). This commit makes the required interface modifications to the core mm as well as all arches that implement this function (arm64, parisc, powerpc, riscv, s390, sparc). The actual arm64 bug will be fixed in a separate commit. No behavioral changes intended.
