A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA, currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects: | effect | alternative flags -+------------------------+--------------------------------------------- 1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO 2| skip in core dump | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP 3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP 4| do not mlock | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct. Seems like nobody cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only reduces total_vm showed in proc. Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP. remap_pfn_range() and io_remap_pfn_range() set VM_IO|VM_DONTEXPAND|VM_DONTDUMP. remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

Error handling code following a kmalloc should free the allocated data. Out_unlock is used on both success and failure, so free vm_priv before jumping to that label. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds the problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr) // <smpl> @r exists@ local idexpression x; statement S; identifier f1; position p1,p2; expression *ptr != NULL; @@ x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...); ... if (x == NULL) S <... when != x when != if (...) { <+...x...+> } x->f1 ...> ( return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\); | return@p2 ...; ) @script:python@ p1 << r.p1; p2 << r.p2; @@ print "* file: %s kmalloc %s return %s" % (p1[0].file,p1[0].line,p2[0].line) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: NJulia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> [v1: Altered the description a bit] Signed-off-by: NKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

When a multi-page mapping of gntalloc is created, the reference counts of all pages in the vma are incremented. However, the vma open/close operations only adjusted the reference count of the first page in the mapping, leaking the other pages. Store a struct in the vm_private_data to track the original page count to properly free the pages when the last reference to the vma is closed.

gnttab_end_foreign_access_ref does not return the grant reference it is passed to the free list; gnttab_free_grant_reference needs to be explicitly called. While gnttab_end_foreign_access provides a wrapper for this, it is unsuitable because it does not return errors.

gref->gref_id is unsigned so the error handling didn't work. gnttab_grant_foreign_access() returns an int type, so we can add a cast here, and it doesn't cause any problems. gnttab_grant_foreign_access() can return a variety of errors including -ENOSPC, -ENOSYS and -ENOMEM.

On 32 bit systems a high value of op.count could lead to an integer overflow in the kzalloc() and gref_ids would be smaller than expected. If the you triggered another integer overflow in "if (gref_size + op.count > limit)" then you'd probably get memory corruption inside add_grefs().

The only time when granted pages need to be treated specially is when using Xen's PTE modification for grant mappings owned by another domain (that is, only gntdev on PV guests). Otherwise, the area does not require VM_DONTCOPY and VM_PFNMAP, since it can be accessed just like any other page of RAM. Since the vm_operations_struct close operations decrement reference counts, a corresponding open function that increments them is required now that it is possible to have multiple references to a single area. We are careful in the gntdev to check if we can remove those flags. The reason that we need to be careful in gntdev on PV guests is because we are not changing the PFN/MFN mapping on PV; instead, we change the application's page tables to point to the other domain's memory. This means that the vma cannot be copied without using another grant mapping hypercall; it also requires special handling on unmap, which is the reason for gntdev's dependency on the MMU notifier. For gntalloc, this is not a concern - the pages are owned by the domain using the gntalloc device, and can be mapped and unmapped in the same manner as any other page of memory.

This allows a userspace application to allocate a shared page for implementing inter-domain communication or device drivers. These shared pages can be mapped using the gntdev device or by the kernel in another domain.
