    IB/hfi1: Ensure correct mm is used at all times · 3d2a9d64
    Dennis Dalessandro 提交于
    Two earlier bug fixes have created a security problem in the hfi1
    driver. One fix aimed to solve an issue where current->mm was not valid
    when closing the hfi1 cdev. It attempted to do this by saving a cached
    value of the current->mm pointer at file open time. This is a problem if
    another process with access to the FD calls in via write() or ioctl() to
    pin pages via the hfi driver. The other fix tried to solve a use after
    free by taking a reference on the mm.
    
    To fix this correctly we use the existing cached value of the mm in the
    mmu notifier. Now we can check in the insert, evict, etc. routines that
    current->mm matched what the notifier was registered for. If not, then
    don't allow access. The register of the mmu notifier will save the mm
    pointer.
    
    Since in do_exit() the exit_mm() is called before exit_files(), which
    would call our close routine a reference is needed on the mm. We rely on
    the mmgrab done by the registration of the notifier, whereas before it was
    explicit. The mmu notifier deregistration happens when the user context is
    torn down, the creation of which triggered the registration.
    
    Also of note is we do not do any explicit work to protect the interval
    tree notifier. It doesn't seem that this is going to be needed since we
    aren't actually doing anything with current->mm. The interval tree
    notifier stuff still has a FIXME noted from a previous commit that will be
    addressed in a follow on patch.
