Given the difficulty of auditing all of userspace to figure out whether
every memfd_create() user has switched to passing MFD_EXEC and
MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL flags, it seems far less distruptive to make it possible
for older programs that don't make use of executable memfds to run under
vm.memfd_noexec=2. Otherwise, a small dependency change can result in
spurious errors. For programs that don't use executable memfds, passing
MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL is functionally a no-op and thus having the same
In addition, every failure under vm.memfd_noexec=2 needs to print to the
kernel log so that userspace can figure out where the error came from.
The concerns about pr_warn_ratelimited() spam that caused the switch to
pr_warn_once()[1,2] do not apply to the vm.memfd_noexec=2 case.
This is a user-visible API change, but as it allows programs to do
something that would be blocked before, and the sysctl itself was broken
and recently released, it seems unlikely this will cause any issues.

Patch series "memfd: cleanups for vm.memfd_noexec", v2.
The most critical issue with vm.memfd_noexec=2 (the fact that passing
MFD_EXEC would bypass it entirely[1]) has been fixed in Andrew's
tree[2], but there are still some outstanding issues that need to be
addressed:
* vm.memfd_noexec=2 shouldn't reject old-style memfd_create(2) syscalls
because it will make it far to difficult to ever migrate. Instead it
should imply MFD_EXEC.
* The dmesg warnings are pr_warn_once(), which on most systems means
that they will be used up by systemd or some other boot process and
userspace developers will never see it.
- For the !(flags & (MFD_EXEC | MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL)) case, outputting a
rate-limited message to the kernel log is necessary to tell
userspace that they should add the new flags.
Arguably the most ideal way to deal with the spam concern[3,4]
while still prompting userspace to switch to the new flags would be
to only log the warning once per task or something similar.
However, adding something to task_struct for tracking this would be
needless bloat for a single pr_warn_ratelimited().
So just switch to pr_info_ratelimited() to avoid spamming the log
with something that isn't a real warning. There's lots of
info-level stuff in dmesg, it seems really unlikely that this
should be an actual problem. Most programs are already switching to
the new flags anyway.
- For the vm.memfd_noexec=2 case, we need to log a warning for every
failure because otherwise userspace will have no idea why their
previously working program started returning -EACCES (previously
-EINVAL) from memfd_create(2). pr_warn_once() is simply wrong here.
* The racheting mechanism for vm.memfd_noexec makes it incredibly
unappealing for most users to enable the sysctl because enabling it
on &init_pid_ns means you need a system reboot to unset it. Given the
actual security threat being protected against, CAP_SYS_ADMIN users
being restricted in this way makes little sense.
The argument for this ratcheting by the original author was that it
allows you to have a hierarchical setting that cannot be unset by
child pidnses, but this is not accurate -- changing the parent
pidns's vm.memfd_noexec setting to be more restrictive didn't affect
children.
Instead, switch the vm.memfd_noexec sysctl to be properly
hierarchical and allow CAP_SYS_ADMIN users (in the pidns's owning
userns) to lower the setting as long as it is not lower than the
parent's effective setting. This change also makes it so that
changing a parent pidns's vm.memfd_noexec will affect all
descendants, providing a properly hierarchical setting. The
performance impact of this is incredibly minimal since the maximum
depth of pidns is 32 and it is only checked during memfd_create(2)
and unshare(CLONE_NEWPID).
* The memfd selftests would not exit with a non-zero error code when
certain tests that ran in a forked process (specifically the ones
related to MFD_EXEC and MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL) failed.

test the mfd_fail_write routine maps the file, but does not unmap. As a
result, two hugetlb pages remain reserved for the mapping. When the

Fix by making sure to unmap in mfd_fail_write.

needs to be triggered so any writes to child's copy stays local to the

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

With the addition of hugetlbfs support in memfd_create, the memfd
selftests should verify correct functionality with hugetlbfs.
Instead of writing a separate memfd hugetlbfs test, modify the
memfd_test program to take an optional argument 'hugetlbfs'. If the
hugetlbfs argument is specified, basic memfd_create functionality will
be exercised on hugetlbfs. If hugetlbfs is not specified, the current
functionality of the test is unchanged.
Note that many of the tests in memfd_test test file sealing operations.
hugetlbfs does not support file sealing, therefore for hugetlbfs all
sealing related tests are skipped.
In order to test on hugetlbfs, there needs to be preallocated huge
pages. A new script (run_tests) is added. This script will first run
the existing memfd_create tests. It will then, attempt to allocate the
required number of huge pages before running the hugetlbfs test. At the
end of testing, it will release any huge pages allocated for testing
purposes.
