Subject: [PATCH] mm/userfaultfd: do not access vma->vm_mm after calling
handle_userfault()

Alexander reported a syzkaller / KASAN finding on s390, see below for complete output.

In do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), the pre-allocated pagetable will be freed in some cases. In the case of userfaultfd_missing(), this will happen after calling handle_userfault(), which might have released the mmap_lock. Therefore, the following pte_free(vma->vm_mm, pgtable) will access an unstable vma->vm_mm, which could have been freed or re-used already.

For all architectures other than s390 this will go w/o any negative impact, because pte_free() simply frees the page and ignores the passed-in mm. The implementation for SPARC32 would also access mm->page_table_lock for pte_free(), but there is no THP support in SPARC32, so the buggy code path will not be used there.

For s390, the mm->context.pgtable_list is being used to maintain the 2K pagetable fragments, and operating on an already freed or even re-used mm could result in various more or less subtle bugs due to list / pagetable corruption.

Fix this by calling pte_free() before handle_userfault(), similar to how it is already done in __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() for the WRITE / non-huge_zero_page case.

Commit 6b251fc96cf2c ("userfaultfd: call handle_userfault() for userfaultfd_missing() faults") actually introduced both, the do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() and also __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() changes wrt to calling handle_userfault(), but only in the latter case it put the pte_free() before calling handle_userfault().
