Going down the current path I see 3 possible cases: copy_from_user returns -EFAULT which becomes SEGV_MAPERR or SEGV_ACCERR. A signal frame parse error. For which SI_KERNEL seems as good an error code as any. On x86 there is no attempt to figure out the cause of the -EFAULT, and always uses SI_KERNEL. This is because x86 just does: "force_sig(SIGSEGV);" As arm64 did until f71016a8a8c5 ("arm64: signal: Call arm64_notify_segfault when failing to deliver signal") I think the big question is what does it make sense to do here. The big picture. Upon return from a signal the kernel arranges for rt_sigreturn to be called to return to a pre-signal state. As such rt_sigreturn can not return an error code. In general the kernel will write the signal frame and that will guarantee that the signal from can be processes by rt_sigreturn. For error handling we are dealing with the case that userspace has modified the signal frame. So that it either does not parse or that it is unmapped. So who cares? The only two cases I can think of are debuggers, and programs playing fancy memory management games like garbage collections. I have heard of applications (like garbage collectors) unmapping/mprotecting memory to create a barrier. Liam Howlett is that the issue here? Is not seeing SI_KERNEL confusing the JVM? For debuggers I expect the stack backtrace from SIGSEGV is enough to see that something is wrong. For applications performing fancy processing of the signal frame I think that tends to be very architecture specific. In part because even knowing the faulting address the size of the access is not known so the instruction must be interpreted. Getting a system call instead of a load or store instruction might be enough to completely confuse applications processing SEGV_MAPERR or SEGV_ACCERR. Such applications may also struggle with the fact that the address in siginfo is less precise than it would be for an ordinary page fault. So my sense is if you known you are helping userspace returning either SEGV_MAPERR or SEGV_ACCERR go for it. Otherwise there are enough variables that returning less information when rt_sigreturn fails would be more reliable. Or in short what is userspace doing? What does userspace care about? Eric

Searching for the address with find_vma() will return SEG_ACCERR almost always, unless the address is larger than anything within *any* VMA. I'm trying to fix this issue by cleaning up the callers to that function and fix the function itself. I don't have an example of why userspace cares about SI_KERNEL vs SEGV_ACCERR/SEGV_MAPERR, but the git log on f71016a8a8c5 specifies that this function was used to avoid having specific code to print an error code. I am restoring the old return code as it seems to makes more sense and avoids the bug in the calling path. If you'd rather, I can change the notify_die line to use SIG_ACCERR as this is *almost* always what is returend - except when the above mentioned bug is hit. Upon examining the code here, it seems unnecessary to walk the VMA tree to find where the address lands in either of the error scenarios to know what should be returned. > > This is changing userspace visible semantics so understanding userspace > and understanding how it might break, and what the risk of regression > seems the most important detail here. > > >> This change requires exporting arm64_notfiy_die() to the arm64 traps.h > >> > >> Fixes: f71016a8a8c5 (arm64: signal: Call arm64_notify_segfault when > >> failing to deliver signal) > >> Signed-off-by: Liam R.

Almost always SEGV_ACCERR with the current bug, as mentioned above. find_vma() searches from addr until the end of the address space, it isn't just a simple lookup of the address. > > A signal frame parse error.

No, the issue here is that arm64_notify_segfault() has a bug which sent me down a rabbit hole of issues and I'm really trying my best to help out as best I can. The bug certainly affects this function as it is written today, but my patch will generate a consistent signal. > > For debuggers I expect the stack backtrace from SIGSEGV is enough to see > that something is wrong. > > For applications performing fancy processing of the signal frame I think > that tends to be very architecture specific.

I think I've answered this, but it's more of trying to fix a bug which causes an *almost* reliable return code to be a reliable return code. Am I correct in stating that in both of these scnarios - !access_ok() and badframe, it is unnecessary to search the VMAs for where the address falls to know what error code to return? Thanks, Liam

I can't see the rest of the patches in your series so I am not quite certain what you are doing. Looking at the places that arm64_notify_segfault is called I do think you are right to be suspicious of that function. swp_handler seems a legitimate user as it emulates an instruction. For that case at least you should probably add the necessary check to see if the address is contained in the returned vma. user_cache_maint_handler calls it with the tagged address, when it should use an untagged address with find_vma. Otherwise user_cache_maint_handler is also performing instruction emulation and should work the same as swp_handler. The only other users are in sigreturn and rt_sigreturn, where the address is iffy. But assuming the proper address is passed sigreturn and rt_sigreturn are also performing instruction emulation. > I don't have an example of why userspace cares about SI_KERNEL vs > SEGV_ACCERR/SEGV_MAPERR, but the git log on f71016a8a8c5 specifies that > this function was used to avoid having specific code to print an error > code.

Ignoring the possibility of a parse error what the code has is -EFAULT. If we want to distinguish between SEGV_ACCERR and SEGV_MAPERR we need the find_vma (and confirmation that the found vma contains the specified address) to see if there is a mapping at the specified address. Or as you point out later this could be a SIGBUS situation. >> This is changing userspace visible semantics so understanding userspace >> and understanding how it might break, and what the risk of regression >> seems the most important detail here. >> >> >> This change requires exporting arm64_notfiy_die() to the arm64 traps.h >> >> >> >> Fixes: f71016a8a8c5 (arm64: signal: Call arm64_notify_segfault when >> >> failing to deliver signal) >> >> Signed-off-by: Liam R.

I hadn't noticed earlier, but I agree that what the code is doing is a little strange. I get SIGBUS and SIGEGV confused when I have not looked at the recently.

You have answered you don't know what piece of userspace cares. For access_ok failure you are correct we don't need a find_vma call to tell what kind of failure we have. For anything return -EFAULT we don't know as -EFAULT has less precision than the instruction itself. My sense is that you should concentrate on the userspace instruction emulation case from swp_handler or user_cache_maint_handler. Because those instructions can run unemulated we know exactly what the semantics should be in those cases. I suspect arm64_notify_segfault should be renamed arm64_notify_fault and generate SIGBUS or SIGSEGV as appropriate. In fact I suspect that proper handling is to call __do_page_fault or handle_mm_fault as do_page_fault does and then parse the VM_FAULT code for which signal to generate. Possibly factoring out a helper converting VM_FAULT codes to signals. Eric

The initial patch was to do just that, but the discussion resulted in other patches to try and clean up the signal handling around this area. I was switching to find_vma_intersection() to find the vma. There was concern on if SEGV_ACCERR should be returned if the next vma VM_GROWSDOWN as that would potentially indicate a stack expansion.

The rt_sigreturn() checks for unaligned access, the frame is access_ok(), then tries to restore the sigframe/altstack.

My goal was to tidy up the signal processing in these two functions and alter the behaviour to be reliable. If you believe that arm64_notify_segfault() should be called anyways, then is there harm in fixing the logic in that function and leaving rt_sigreturn() and sigreturn() as they are? Please see my 3rd patch in the series at [2]. Thanks, Liam Link: [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210422185611.ccdf3rm4zr3xtuzl@revolver/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210420165001.3790670-3-Liam.Howlett@Oracle.com/
This entire discussion seems to come down to what are the expected semantics of arm64_notify_segfault. The use of this helper in swp_handler and user_cache_main_handler is clearly for the purposes of instruction emulation. With instruction emulation it is a bug if the emulated instruction behaves differently than a real instruction in the same circumstances. To properly fix the instruction emulation in arm64_notify_segfault it looks to me that the proper solution is to call __do_page_fault or handle_mm_fault the way do_page_fault does and them parse the VM_FAULT code for which signal to generate. I would probably rename arm64_notify_segfault to arm64_emulate_fault, or possibly arm64_notify_fault while fixing the emulation so that it can return different signals and so that people don't have to guess what the function is supposed to do. For the specific case of sigreturn and rt_sigreturn it looks sufficient to use the fixed arm64_notify_segfault. As it appears the that the code is attempting to act like it is emulating an instruction that does not exist. There is an argument that sigreturn and rt_sigreturn do a poor enough job of acting like the fault was caused by an instruction, as well as failing for other reasons it might make more sense to just have sigreturn and rt_sigreturn call "force_sig(SIGSEGV);" But that seems out of scope of what you are trying to fix right now so I would not worry about it.

This is way out of scope for what I'm doing. I'm trying to fix a call to the wrong mm API. I was trying to clean up any obvious errors in calling functions which were exposed by fixing that error. If you want this fixed differently, then please go ahead and tackle the problems you see. Thank you, Liam * Eric W.

I hope I have done that. What is very interesting is that the code in __do_page_fault does not use find_vma_intersection it uses find_vma. Which suggests that find_vma_intersection may not be the proper mm api. The logic is: From __do_page_fault: struct vm_area_struct *vma = find_vma(mm, addr); if (unlikely(!vma)) return VM_FAULT_BADMAP; /* * Ok, we have a good vm_area for this memory access, so we can handle * it. */ if (unlikely(vma->vm_start > addr)) { if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_GROWSDOWN)) return VM_FAULT_BADMAP; if (expand_stack(vma, addr)) return VM_FAULT_BADMAP; } /* * Check that the permissions on the VMA allow for the fault which * occurred. */ if (!(vma->vm_flags & vm_flags)) return VM_FAULT_BADACCESS; From do_page_fault: arm64_force_sig_fault(SIGSEGV, fault == VM_FAULT_BADACCESS ? SEGV_ACCERR : SEGV_MAPERR, far, inf->name); Hmm. If the expand_stack step is skipped. Does is the logic equivalent to find_vma_intersection? static inline struct vm_area_struct *find_vma_intersection( struct mm_struct * mm, unsigned long start_addr, unsigned long end_addr) { struct vm_area_struct * vma = find_vma(mm,start_addr); if (vma && end_addr <= vma->vm_start) vma = NULL; return vma; } Yes. It does look that way. VM_FAULT_BADMAP is returned when a vma covering the specified address is not found. And VM_FAULT_BADACCESS is returned when there is a vma and there is a permission problem. There are also two SIGBUS cases that arm64_notify_segfault does not handle. So it appears changing arm64_notify_segfault to use find_vma_intersection instead of find_vma would be a correct but incomplete fix. I don't see a point in changing sigerturn or rt_sigreturn. Eric

The reason VM_GROWSDOWN is checked here is to see if the stack should be attempted to be expanded, which happens above. If VM_GROWSDOWN is true, then wouldn't the do_page_fault() and __do_page_fault() calls already be done and be handling this case? > > I don't see a point in changing sigerturn or rt_sigreturn. Both functions call arm64_notify_segfault() on !access_ok() which I've increased the potential for returning SEGV_MAPERR. It is also not necessary to walk the VMAs when !access_ok(), so it seemed a decent thing to do. Thanks, Liam

arm64_notify_segfault() was used to force a SIGSEGV in all error cases in sigreturn() and rt_sigreturn() to avoid writing a new sig handler. There is now a better sig handler to use which does not search the VMA address space and return a slightly incorrect error code. Restore the older and correct si_code of SI_KERNEL by using arm64_notify_die(). In the case of !access_ok(), simply return SIGSEGV with si_code SEGV_ACCERR.
