The linux-next integration testing tree
60d5b473d6
This patch fixes an issue that a hugetlb uffd-wr-protected mapping can be
writable even with uffd-wp bit set. It only happens with hugetlb private
mappings, when someone firstly wr-protects a missing pte (which will
install a pte marker), then a write to the same page without any prior
access to the page.
Userfaultfd-wp trap for hugetlb was implemented in hugetlb_fault() before
reaching hugetlb_wp() to avoid taking more locks that userfault won't
need. However there's one CoW optimization path that can trigger
hugetlb_wp() inside hugetlb_no_page(), which will bypass the trap.
This patch skips hugetlb_wp() for CoW and retries the fault if uffd-wp bit
is detected. The new path will only trigger in the CoW optimization path
because generic hugetlb_fault() (e.g. when a present pte was
wr-protected) will resolve the uffd-wp bit already. Also make sure
anonymous UNSHARE won't be affected and can still be resolved, IOW only
skip CoW not CoR.
This patch will be needed for v5.19+ hence copy stable.

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.
