I agree about the "not good" part.

The right way to handle this is FOLL_WRITE | FOLL_FORCE, which will break any COW mappings and update tracking for MAY_WRITE mappings so there's no exploit and the vm isn't confused about what's going on. For any legit use case there's no difference from what userspace can observe and do.

This however seems pretty heavy handed. Does this mean we do a full COW cycle of the userpages on BO creation? This most likely kills a lot of the performance benefits that one might seek by using userptr. If that's the case I might still take this patch for stable, but then we should rather just disallow writable GPU mappings to this BO.

That's not what's happening. If the mmap is writeable already (like any malloc'ed area, and anything you might vacuum up with Xshm), then FOLL_FORCE does nothing. The difference only happens when the current mmap region (or some of the pte at least) is read-only. Then: - for MAP_SHARED with the VM_MAYWRITE flag set, we simply adjust some book-keeping (no copying of pages), so that the core mm doesn't get confused about the potentially changed pages contents due to gpu writes. Without this you could corrupt fs state (e.g. when the fs checksums file contents or does in-place mmap and stuff like that). - for MAP_PRIVATE we force the CoW. Just don't do userptr on these, really, it doesn't make much sense anyway. And note again, if the mapping is currently writeable, then there's no copying going on, this is only when the mmap/pte is currently read-only. This is the "let's overwrite libc.so" attack vector :-)

So really in practice nothing should happen here aside from plugging the "not good" part. Note that on recent kernels the CoW breaking on fork() happens irrespective of FOLL_FORCE or not once you have the mapping established. So if you do a lot of userptr on MAP_PRIVATE already and applications are using fork(), then you're already suffering big time (since 5.10 or so iirc, John probably knows the exact commit without looking). -Daniel

Can I please have an ack on this so I can apply it? It's stuck.
