[PATCH] mm/mremap: account unmoved locked pages in dontunmap_complete()
Posted by Hui Peng 5 days ago
When MREMAP_DONTUNMAP is performed on a VM_LOCKED VMA,
dontunmap_complete() clears VMA_LOCKED_MASK on the entire source VMA
(vrm->vma) before vrm_stat_account() runs. This assumes that the entire
source VMA was moved into a distinct destination VMA (new_vma != vma) of
equal size, transferring the VM_LOCKED accounting 1:1 from vma to
new_vma.

However, two cases violate this assumption:

1. Partial MREMAP_DONTUNMAP on a multi-page VM_LOCKED VMA (vrm->old_len
   < vma->vm_end - vma->vm_start): vma_clear_flags_mask(vma,
   VMA_LOCKED_MASK) clears VM_LOCKED on the entire source VMA of size
   vma_pages(vma), while new_vma only inherits VM_LOCKED for
   vrm->old_len >> PAGE_SHIFT pages. The remaining unmoved pages in vma
   lose VM_LOCKED without decrementing mm->locked_vm.
2. Self-merge in copy_vma() (new_vma == vma, when new_addr is
   immediately adjacent to vma): copy_vma() expands vma by vrm->new_len,
   and dontunmap_complete() then clears VMA_LOCKED_MASK on the combined
   VMA. All originally locked pages lose VM_LOCKED without decrementing
   mm->locked_vm.

In both cases, subsequent munmap() of the VMAs sees VM_LOCKED cleared
and does not decrement mm->locked_vm, permanently leaking mm->locked_vm
until process exit and allowing unprivileged processes to exhaust
RLIMIT_MEMLOCK.

Fix this in dontunmap_complete() by subtracting the number of pages that
lose VM_LOCKED from current->mm->locked_vm before clearing
VMA_LOCKED_MASK.

NAK.

You are engaging in abusive behaviour on the mailing list and it's totally
unacceptable.

You sent 115 patches across 40 subsystems over a couple hours.

https://lore.kernel.org/all/?q=f%3Ahui+peng

DO NOT DO THIS.

You are in complete violation of kernel guidelines on generated content -
https://docs.kernel.org/process/generated-content.html

I will treat the report like an AI-generated report and figure out whether
there's anything valid here independently.
