[PATCH v5 0/4] dma-buf: heaps: Turn heaps into modules

by Maxime Ripard

Hi, The recent introduction of heaps in the optee driver [1] made possible the creation of heaps as modules. It's generally a good idea if possible, including for the already existing system and CMA heaps. The system one is pretty trivial, the CMA is now easy too with the reworks we got in 7.1-r1.

[PATCH 0/2] dma-buf: add DMA_BUF_IOCTL_DERIVE for reduced-permission aliases

by Albert Esteve

When sharing a dma-buf between components of different trust levels, the allocator may need to hand a consumer a read-only view of a buffer it holds with read-write access. An example is a camera pipeline where the capture component writes frames into a buffer and needs to pass a read-only handle to a downstream processing component that should not be able to modify the data. However, no such mechanism exists today. The access mode of a dma-buf file descriptor is fixed at export time, and the standard POSIX interfaces for duplicating or changing file descriptors (i.e., dup(2), dup3(2), and fcntl(F_SETFL)) cannot alter the read/write access mode of the copy. One natural candidate would be reopening via /proc/self/fd/<N> with O_RDONLY, which works for regular files. For dma-buf this would fail (that is, if we were to add a new handler for open f_op) with ENXIO because the dmabuf pseudo-filesystem carries SB_NOUSER, which prevents the VFS from opening its files through path-based resolution from userspace. Alternatively, exporting the buffer twice would produce two independent dma_buf instances, which breaks fence synchronization. Therefore we add a new DMA_BUF_IOCTL_DERIVE ioctl, which produces a new file descriptor for an existing dma-buf with a caller-specified subset of the original permissions: ``` struct dma_buf_derive { __u32 flags; __s32 fd; }; struct dma_buf_derive req = { .flags = O_RDONLY | O_CLOEXEC }; ioctl(rw_fd, DMA_BUF_IOCTL_DERIVE, &req); /* req.fd is now a read-only alias of the same buffer */ ``` Permission escalation is rejected with -EACCES. The new fd aliases the same struct dma_buf as the original, same dma_resv, same exporter ops, same underlying memory; so importers attaching to either fd see the same fence timeline and operate on the same object. Access control for which components may receive or pass on restricted descriptors can be layered on top via SELinux file:read and file:write permissions. A shared writable mapping (PROT_WRITE | MAP_SHARED) on the read-only fd is rejected with -EACCES in dma_buf_mmap_internal(). Two small internal adjustments accompany the ioctl: - __dma_buf_list_del() is moved to dma_buf_release() so it fires exactly once on dentry destruction rather than on every file close. - dma_buf_file_release() is updated to call dma_buf_put() only for files that are not the primary dma-buf file. This may not be the best approach, but after considering different options and alternatives (as described above), we decided to raise the discussion upstream. Thus, we welcome any alternative proposal or ideas. The series is structured as: - Patch 1 adds the new ioctl implementation. - Patch 2 adds selftests covering the new ioctl.

[PATCH 0/6] drm/panthor: Use guards

by Boris Brezillon

Turn the mixed bag of manual locks and guards into something more consistent.

[PATCH 00/12] misc/syncobj: add /dev/syncobj device

by Julian Orth

This series adds a new device /dev/syncobj that can be used to create and manipulate DRM syncobjs. Previously, these operations required the use of a DRM device and the device needed to support the DRIVER_SYNCOBJ and DRIVER_SYNCOBJ_TIMELINE features. There are several issues with the existing API: - Syncobjs are the only explicit sync mechanism available on wayland. Most compositors do not use GPU waits. Instead, they use the DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_EVENTFD ioctl to perform a CPU wait. Being tied to DRM devices means that compositors cannot consistently offer this feature even though no device-specific logic is involved. - llvmpipe currently cannot offer syncobj interop because it does not have access to a DRM device. This means that applications using llvmpipe cannot present images before they have finished rendering, despite llvmpipe using threaded rendering. - Clients that do not use the Vulkan WSI need to manually probe /dev/dri for devices that support the syncobj ioctls in order to use the wayland syncobj protocol. - Similarly, clients that want to use screen capture have no equivalent to the WSI and are therefore forced into that path. - Having to keep a DRM device open has potentially negative interactions with GPU hotplug. - Having to translate between syncobj FDs and handles is troublesome in the compositor usecase since syncobjs come and go frequently and need to be cleaned up when clients disconnect. /dev/syncobj solves these issues by providing all syncobj ioctls under a consistent path that is not tied to any DRM device. It also operates directly on file descriptors instead of syncobj handles. The series starts with a number of small refactorings in drm_syncobj.c to make its functionality available outside of the file and without the need for drm_file/handle pairs. The last commit adds the /dev/syncobj module. I've added it as a misc device but maybe this should instead live somewhere under gpu/drm. An application using the new interface can be found at [1].

[PATCH RFC 0/5] memcg: dma-buf per-cgroup accounting via pid_fd

by Albert Esteve

This RFC builds on T.J. Mercier's earlier series [1] which added a memory.stat counter for exported dma-bufs and a binder-backed mechanism to transfer charges between cgroups. The first commit is taken almost verbatim from TJ's series: it introduces MEMCG_DMABUF as a dedicated per-cgroup stat, so that the total exported dma-buf footprint is visible both system-wide (via the root cgroup) and per-application (via per-process cgroups). This avoids the overhead of DMABUF_SYSFS_STATS and integrates naturally into the existing cgroup memory hierarchy. The rest of the series departs from TJ's approach. While the first commit introduces the memcg stat infrastructure for dmabufs, the export-time charging it introduces in dma_buf_export() is then superseded: we charge at dma_heap_ioctl_allocate() time, using a new charge_pid_fd field in struct dma_heap_allocation_data. The allocator opens a pidfd for its client (e.g., from binder's sender_pid), passes it to the ioctl, and the kernel charges the buffer directly to the client's cgroup at allocation time, so no transfer step is needed. This decouples the accounting path from binder entirely: any allocator that knows its client's PID can use the pid_fd mechanism regardless of the IPC transport in use. The cross-cgroup charging capability requires access control. Patches #3 and #4 add a generic LSM hook (security_dma_heap_alloc) and an SELinux implementation based on a new dma_heap object class with a charge_to permission, so policy authors can express which domains are allowed to charge memory to another domain's cgroup. Last patch adds some tests to verify the new charge_pid_fd field. We are sending it as an RFC to spark broader discussion. It may or may not be the right path forward, and we welcome feedback on the trade-offs. Collision note: Eric Chanudet's series [2] adds __GFP_ACCOUNT to system_heap page allocations as an opt-in module parameter. That approach charges pages to the allocator's own kmem, which overlaps with MEMCG_DMABUF. This series explicitly removes __GFP_ACCOUNT from system heap allocations and routes all accounting through the MEMCG_DMABUF path to avoid double-counting.

Yeah, that's also a questionable design choice. I mean, we can currently probe and boot the FW even though we never setup the protected FW sections, so why should we defer the probe here? Can't we just retry the next time a group with the protected bit is created and fail if we can find a protected heap? > I'm not sure why it's needed at all, but if > it is really needed, then s/strlen(protected_heap_name)/protected_heap_name[0]/ > would simplify this. It's not so much about how you do the test, and more about the case you're trying to protect against. I guess here you assume that panthor.protected_heap_name="" means "I don't have a protected heap for you". If it's deemed acceptable, this should most certainly be described somewhere. > > > > + ptdev->protm.heap = dma_heap_find(protected_heap_name); > > > + if (!ptdev->protm.heap) { > > > + drm_warn(&ptdev->base, > > > + "Protected heap \'%s\' not (yet) available - deferring probe", > > > + protected_heap_name); > > > + ret = -EPROBE_DEFER; > > > + goto err_rpm_put; > > > > If you move the heap retrieval before the rpm enablement, you can get > > rid of this goto err_rpm_put. > > > > > + } > > > + } > > > + > > > ret = panthor_hw_init(ptdev); > > > if (ret) > > > - goto err_rpm_put; > > > + goto err_dma_heap_put; > > > > > > ret = panthor_pwr_init(ptdev); > > > if (ret)

[PATCH 0/9] vfio/pci: Add mmap() for DMABUFs

by Matt Evans

Hi all, This series is based on previous RFCs/discussions: Tech topic: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/20250918214425.2677057-1-amastro@fb.com/ RFCv1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260226202211.929005-1-mattev@meta.com/ RFCv2: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20260312184613.3710705-1-mattev@meta.com/ The background/rationale is covered in more detail in the RFC cover letters. The TL;DR is: The goal is to enable userspace driver designs that use VFIO to export DMABUFs representing subsets of PCI device BARs, and "vend" those buffers from a primary process to other subordinate processes by fd. These processes then mmap() the buffers and their access to the device is isolated to the exported ranges. This is an improvement on sharing the VFIO device fd to subordinate processes, which would allow unfettered access . This is achieved by enabling mmap() of vfio-pci DMABUFs. Second, a new ioctl()-based revocation mechanism is added to allow the primary process to forcibly revoke access to previously-shared BAR spans, even if the subordinate processes haven't cleanly exited. (The related topic of safe delegation of iommufd control to the subordinate processes is not addressed here, and is follow-up work.) As well as isolation and revocation, another advantage to accessing a BAR through a VMA backed by a DMABUF is that it's straightforward to create the buffer with access attributes, such as write-combining. Notes on patches ================ Feedback from the RFCs requested that, instead of creating DMABUF-specific vm_ops and .fault paths, to go the whole way and migrate the existing VFIO PCI BAR mmap() to be backed by a DMABUF too, resulting in a common vm_ops and fault handler for mmap()s of both the VFIO device and explicitly-exported DMABUFs. This has been done for vfio-pci, but not sub-drivers (nvgrace-gpu's special-case mappings are unchanged). vfio/pci: Fix vfio_pci_dma_buf_cleanup() double-put A bug fix to a related are, whose context is a depdency for later patches. vfio/pci: Add a helper to look up PFNs for DMABUFs vfio/pci: Add a helper to create a DMABUF for a BAR-map VMA The first is for a DMABUF VMA fault handler to determine arbitrary-sized PFNs from ranges in DMABUF. Secondly, refactor DMABUF export for use by the existing export feature and a new helper that creates a DMABUF corresponding to a VFIO BAR mmap() request. vfio/pci: Convert BAR mmap() to use a DMABUF The vfio-pci core mmap() creates a DMABUF with the helper, and the vm_ops fault handler uses the other helper to resolve the fault. Because this depends on DMABUF structs/code, CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_CORE needs to depend on CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER. The CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_DMABUF still conditionally enables the export support code. NOTE: The user mmap()s a device fd, but the resulting VMA's vm_file becomes that of the DMABUF which takes ownership of the device and puts it on release. This maintains the existing behaviour of a VMA keeping the VFIO device open. BAR zapping then happens via the existing vfio_pci_dma_buf_move() path, which now needs to unmap PTEs in the DMABUF's address_space. vfio/pci: Provide a user-facing name for BAR mappings There was a request for decent debug naming in /proc/<pid>/maps etc. comparable to the existing VFIO names: since the VMAs are DMABUFs, they have a "dmabuf:" prefix and can't be 100% identical to before. This is a user-visible change, but this patch at least now gives us extra info on the BDF & BAR being mapped. vfio/pci: Clean up BAR zap and revocation In general (see NOTE!) the vfio_pci_zap_bars() is now obsolete, since it unmaps PTEs in the VFIO device address_space which is now unused. This consolidates all calls (e.g. around reset) with the neighbouring vfio_pci_dma_buf_move()s into new functions, to revoke-zap/unrevoke. NOTE: the nvgrace-gpu driver continues to use its own private vm_ops, fault handler, etc. for its special memregions, and these DO still add PTEs to the VFIO device address_space. So, a temporary flag, vdev->bar_needs_zap, maintains the old behaviour for this use. At least this patch's consolidation makes it easy to remove the remaining zap when this need goes away. A FIXME is added: if nvgrace-gpu is converted to DMABUFs, remove the flag and final zap. vfio/pci: Support mmap() of a VFIO DMABUF Adds mmap() for a DMABUF fd exported from vfio-pci. It was a goal to keep the VFIO device fd lifetime behaviour unchanged with respect to the DMABUFs. An application can close all device fds, and this will revoke/clean up all DMABUFs; no mappings or other access can be performed now. When enabling mmap() of the DMABUFs, this means access through the VMA is also revoked. This complicates the fault handler because whilst the DMABUF exists, it has no guarantee that the corresponding VFIO device is still alive. Adds synchronisation ensuring the vdev is available before vdev->memory_lock is touched. (I decided against the alternative of preventing cleanup by holding the VFIO device open if any DMABUFs exist, because it's both a change of behaviour and less clean overall.) I've added a chonky comment in place, happy to clarify more if you have ideas. vfio/pci: Permanently revoke a DMABUF on request By weight, this is mostly a rename of revoked to an enum, status. There are now 3 states for a buffer, usable and revoked temporary/permanent. A new VFIO device ioctl is added, VFIO_DEVICE_PCI_DMABUF_REVOKE, which passes a DMABUF (exported from that device) and permanently revokes it. Thus a userspace driver can guarantee any downstream consumers of a shared fd are prevented from accessing a BAR range, and that range can be reused. The code doing revocation in vfio_pci_dma_buf_move() is moved, unchanged, to a common function for use by _move() and the new ioctl path. Q: I can't think of a good reason to temporarily revoke/unrevoke buffers from userspace, so didn't add a 'flags' field to the ioctl struct. Easy to add if people think it's worthwhile for future use. vfio/pci: Add mmap() attributes to DMABUF feature Reserves bits [31:28] in vfio_device_feature_dma_buf to allow a (CPU) mapping attribute to be specified for an exported set of ranges. The default is the current UC, and a new flag can specify CPU access as WC. Q: I've taken 4 bits; the intention is for this field to be a scalar not a bitmap (i.e. mutually-exclusive access properties). Perhaps 4 is a bit too many? Testing ======= (The [RFC ONLY] userspace test program, for QEMU edu-plus, has been dropped, but can be found in the GitHub branch below.) This code has been tested in mapping DMABUFs of single/multiple ranges, aliasing mmap()s, aliasing ranges across DMABUFs, vm_pgoff > 0, revocation, shutdown/cleanup scenarios, and hugepage mappings seem to work correctly. I've lightly tested WC mappings also (by observing resulting PTEs as having the correct attributes...). No regressions observed on the VFIO selftests, or on our internal vfio-pci applications.

[PATCH v3] drm/virtio: use uninterruptible resv lock for plane updates

by Deepanshu Kartikey

virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update() and virtio_gpu_resource_flush() lock the framebuffer BO's dma_resv via virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv() and ignore its return value. The function can fail with -EINTR from dma_resv_lock_interruptible() (signal during lock wait) or with -ENOMEM from dma_resv_reserve_fences() (fence slot allocation), leaving the resv lock not held. The queue path then walks the object array and calls dma_resv_add_fence(), which requires the lock held; with lockdep enabled this trips dma_resv_assert_held(): WARNING: drivers/dma-buf/dma-resv.c:296 at dma_resv_add_fence+0x71e/0x840 Call Trace: virtio_gpu_array_add_fence virtio_gpu_queue_ctrl_sgs virtio_gpu_queue_fenced_ctrl_buffer virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail commit_tail drm_atomic_helper_commit drm_atomic_commit drm_atomic_helper_update_plane __setplane_atomic drm_mode_cursor_universal drm_mode_cursor_common drm_mode_cursor_ioctl drm_ioctl __x64_sys_ioctl Beyond the WARN, mutating the dma_resv fence list without the lock races with concurrent readers/writers and can corrupt the list. Both call sites run inside the .atomic_update plane callback, which DRM atomic helpers do not allow to fail (by the time it runs, the commit has been signed off to userspace and there is no clean rollback path). Moving the lock acquisition to .prepare_fb (v2) was rejected because the broader lock scope deadlocks against other BO locking paths in the same atomic commit. Introduce virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv_uninterruptible() that uses dma_resv_lock() instead of dma_resv_lock_interruptible() on the nents==1 path. This eliminates the -EINTR failure mode -- the realistic syzbot trigger -- without extending the lock hold across the commit. Use it from both virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update() and virtio_gpu_resource_flush(); check the return value to handle the remaining -ENOMEM case by freeing the objs and skipping the plane update for that frame. The framebuffer BOs touched here are not shared with other contexts and lock contention is expected to be brief, so the loss of signal-interruptibility is acceptable. Other callers of virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv() (the ioctl paths) continue to use the interruptible variant. The bug was reported by syzbot, triggered via fault injection (fail_nth) on the DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CURSOR path, which forces the -ENOMEM branch in dma_resv_reserve_fences(). Reported-by: syzbot+72bd3dd3a5d5f39a0271(a)syzkaller.appspotmail.com Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=72bd3dd3a5d5f39a0271 Fixes: 5cfd31c5b3a3 ("drm/virtio: fix virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update().") Cc: stable(a)vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Deepanshu Kartikey <kartikey406(a)gmail.com> --- v3: Per maintainer feedback on v2 (lockup caused by the broader lock scope in prepare_fb conflicting with other BO locking in the same atomic commit): drop the prepare_fb/cleanup_fb approach, introduce an uninterruptible variant of virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv(), and use it in both virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update() and virtio_gpu_resource_flush(). v2: Move resv lock acquisition from .atomic_update (which must not fail) to .prepare_fb (which may), per maintainer review of v1. The previous approach of silently skipping the cursor update on lock failure violated the atomic-commit contract with userspace. --- drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_drv.h | 1 + drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_gem.c | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_plane.c | 10 ++++++++-- 3 files changed, 33 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_drv.h b/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_drv.h index f17660a71a3e..43a7eb568e15 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_drv.h +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_drv.h @@ -317,6 +317,7 @@ virtio_gpu_array_from_handles(struct drm_file *drm_file, u32 *handles, u32 nents void virtio_gpu_array_add_obj(struct virtio_gpu_object_array *objs, struct drm_gem_object *obj); int virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv(struct virtio_gpu_object_array *objs); +int virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv_uninterruptible(struct virtio_gpu_object_array *objs); void virtio_gpu_array_unlock_resv(struct virtio_gpu_object_array *objs); void virtio_gpu_array_add_fence(struct virtio_gpu_object_array *objs, struct dma_fence *fence); diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_gem.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_gem.c index f22dc5c21cd4..08c4b7ef8d44 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_gem.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_gem.c @@ -238,6 +238,30 @@ int virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv(struct virtio_gpu_object_array *objs) return ret; } +int virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv_uninterruptible(struct virtio_gpu_object_array *objs) +{ + unsigned int i; + int ret = 0; + + if (objs->nents == 1) { + dma_resv_lock(objs->objs[0]->resv, NULL); + } else { + ret = drm_gem_lock_reservations(objs->objs, objs->nents, + &objs->ticket); + if (ret) + return ret; + } + + for (i = 0; i < objs->nents; ++i) { + ret = dma_resv_reserve_fences(objs->objs[i]->resv, 1); + if (ret) { + virtio_gpu_array_unlock_resv(objs); + return ret; + } + } + return 0; +} + void virtio_gpu_array_unlock_resv(struct virtio_gpu_object_array *objs) { if (objs->nents == 1) { diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_plane.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_plane.c index a126d1b25f46..ef118cb4f0fa 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_plane.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_plane.c @@ -215,7 +215,10 @@ static void virtio_gpu_resource_flush(struct drm_plane *plane, if (!objs) return; virtio_gpu_array_add_obj(objs, vgfb->base.obj[0]); - virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv(objs); + if (virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv_uninterruptible(objs)) { + virtio_gpu_array_put_free(objs); + return; + } virtio_gpu_cmd_resource_flush(vgdev, bo->hw_res_handle, x, y, width, height, objs, vgplane_st->fence); @@ -459,7 +462,10 @@ static void virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update(struct drm_plane *plane, if (!objs) return; virtio_gpu_array_add_obj(objs, vgfb->base.obj[0]); - virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv(objs); + if (virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv_uninterruptible(objs)) { + virtio_gpu_array_put_free(objs); + return; + } virtio_gpu_cmd_transfer_to_host_2d (vgdev, 0, plane->state->crtc_w, -- 2.43.0
