Commit Message

Way back it was a reasonable assumptions that iomem mappings never
change the pfn range they point at. But this has changed:

- gpu drivers dynamically manage their memory nowadays, invalidating
ptes with unmap_mapping_range when buffers get moved

- contiguous dma allocations have moved from dedicated carvetouts to
cma regions. This means if we miss the unmap the pfn might contain
pagecache or anon memory (well anything allocated with GFP_MOVEABLE)

- even /dev/mem now invalidates mappings when the kernel requests that
iomem region when CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM is set, see 3234ac664a87
("/dev/mem: Revoke mappings when a driver claims the region")

Accessing pfns obtained from ptes without holding all the locks is
therefore no longer a good idea.

Unfortunately there's some users where this is not fixable (like v4l
userptr of iomem mappings) or involves a pile of work (vfio type1
iommu). For now annotate these as unsafe and splat appropriately.

This patch adds an unsafe_follow_pfn, which later patches will then
roll out to all appropriate places.

Also mark up follow_pfn as EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL. The only safe way to use
that by drivers/modules is together with an mmu_notifier, and that's
all _GPL stuff.

v5: Suggestions from Christoph
- reindent for less weirdness
- use IS_ENABLED instead of #ifdef
- same checks for nommu, for consistency
- EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for follow_pfn.
- kerneldoc was already updated in previous versions to explain when
  follow_pfn can be used safely

I also think it also needs to be renamed to explicitly break any existing
users out of tree or int the submission queue.

Ok I looked at the mmu notifier locking again and noticed that
mm->subscriptions has its own spinlock. Since there usually shouldn't
be a huge pile of these I think it's feasible to check for the mmu
notifier in follow_pfn. And that would stuff this gap for good. I'll
throw that on top as a final patch and see what people think.

Probably the simplest is to just check mm_has_notifiers() when in
lockdep or something very simple like that

lockdep feels wrong, was locking more at CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. And since
generally you only have 1 mmu notifier (especially for kvm) I think we
can also pay the 2nd cacheline miss and actually check the right mmu
notifier is registered.

Need to hold the lock to check that and there are two ways to register
notifiers these days, so it feels to expensive to me.

CH's 'export symbol only for kvm' really does seem the most robust way
to handle this though.

I hope I can get that done for this merge window, but I'm not sure.

I still think we should at least have a new name for the old follow_pfn
that no one should use.  And it should sound more scary than
unsafe_follow_pfn :)

Uh I mixed stuff up all along, struct mmu_notifier *subcription that
all the mmu notifier users use has the ->mm pointer we want right
there. That's good enough I think.

Now I'm kinda lost in kvm code trying to wire it through, but it's
looking ok-ish thus far :-)

Yah, if you can pass in one of those instead of the raw mm it would be
fine
