Series arm64: untag user pointers passed to the kernel | expand

Commit Message

Andrey Konovalov June 3, 2019, 4:55 p.m. UTC
This patch is a part of a series that extends arm64 kernel ABI to allow to
pass tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other
than 0x00) as syscall arguments.

ib_uverbs_(re)reg_mr() use provided user pointers for vma lookups (through
e.g. mlx4_get_umem_mr()), which can only by done with untagged pointers.

Untag user pointers in these functions.

I feel like we shouldn't thave to do this here, surely the cmd.start
should flow unmodified to get_user_pages, and gup should untag it?

ie, this sort of direction for the IB code (this would be a giant
patch, so I didn't have time to write it all, but I think it is much
saner):

Hi Jason,

ib_uverbs_reg_mr() passes cmd.start to mlx4_get_umem_mr(), which calls
find_vma(), which only accepts untagged addresses. Could you explain
how your patch helps?

Thanks!

That mlx4 is just a 'weird duck', it is not the normal flow, and I
don't think the core code should be making special consideration for
it.

How do you think we should do untagging (or something else) to deal
with this 'weird duck' case?

mlx4 should handle it around the call to find_vma like other patches
do, ideally as part of the cast from a void __user * to the unsigned
long that find_vma needs

So essentially what we had a few versions ago
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/4/30/785) plus changing unsigned longs to
__user * across all IB code? I think the second part is something
that's not related to this series and needs to be done separately. I
can move untagging back to mlx4_get_umem_mr() though.

Catalin, you've initially asked to to move untagging out of
mlx4_get_umem_mr(), do you have any comments on this?

It's fine by me either way. My original reasoning was to untag this at
the higher level as tags may not be relevant to the mlx4 code. If that's
what Jason prefers, go for it.
