+Subject: [PATCH 1/3] shmem: fix faulting into a hole while it's punched
+
+commit f00cdc6df7d7cfcabb5b740911e6788cb0802bdb upstream.
+
+Trinity finds that mmap access to a hole while it's punched from shmem
+can prevent the madvise(MADV_REMOVE) or fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE)
+from completing, until the reader chooses to stop; with the puncher's
+hold on i_mutex locking out all other writers until it can complete.
+
+It appears that the tmpfs fault path is too light in comparison with its
+hole-punching path, lacking an i_data_sem to obstruct it; but we don't
+want to slow down the common case.
+
+Extend shmem_fallocate()'s existing range notification mechanism, so
+shmem_fault() can refrain from faulting pages into the hole while it's
+punched, waiting instead on i_mutex (when safe to sleep; or repeatedly
+faulting when not).

+Subject: [PATCH 2/3] shmem: fix faulting into a hole, not taking i_mutex
+
+commit 8e205f779d1443a94b5ae81aa359cb535dd3021e upstream.
+
+Commit f00cdc6df7d7 ("shmem: fix faulting into a hole while it's
+punched") was buggy: Sasha sent a lockdep report to remind us that
+grabbing i_mutex in the fault path is a no-no (write syscall may already
+hold i_mutex while faulting user buffer).
+
+We tried a completely different approach (see following patch) but that
+proved inadequate: good enough for a rational workload, but not good
+enough against trinity - which forks off so many mappings of the object
+that contention on i_mmap_mutex while hole-puncher holds i_mutex builds
+into serious starvation when concurrent faults force the puncher to fall
+back to single-page unmap_mapping_range() searches of the i_mmap tree.
+
+So return to the original umbrella approach, but keep away from i_mutex
+this time.  We really don't want to bloat every shmem inode with a new
+mutex or completion, just to protect this unlikely case from trinity.
+So extend the original with wait_queue_head on stack at the hole-punch
+end, and wait_queue item on the stack at the fault end.
+
+This involves further use of i_lock to guard against the races: lockdep
+has been happy so far, and I see fs/inode.c:unlock_new_inode() holds
+i_lock around wake_up_bit(), which is comparable to what we do here.
+i_lock is more convenient, but we could switch to shmem's info->lock.
+
+This issue has been tagged with CVE-2014-4171, which will require commit
+f00cdc6df7d7 and this and the following patch to be backported: we
+suggest to 3.1+, though in fact the trinity forkbomb effect might go
+back as far as 2.6.16, when madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE) came in - or might
+not, since much has changed, with i_mmap_mutex a spinlock before 3.0.
+Anyone running trinity on 3.0 and earlier? I don't think we need care.

+Subject: [PATCH 3/3] shmem: fix splicing from a hole while it's punched
+
+commit b1a366500bd537b50c3aad26dc7df083ec03a448 upstream.
+
+shmem_fault() is the actual culprit in trinity's hole-punch starvation,
+and the most significant cause of such problems: since a page faulted is
+one that then appears page_mapped(), needing unmap_mapping_range() and
+i_mmap_mutex to be unmapped again.
+
+But it is not the only way in which a page can be brought into a hole in
+the radix_tree while that hole is being punched; and Vlastimil's testing
+implies that if enough other processors are busy filling in the hole,
+then shmem_undo_range() can be kept from completing indefinitely.
+
+shmem_file_splice_read() is the main other user of SGP_CACHE, which can
+instantiate shmem pagecache pages in the read-only case (without holding
+i_mutex, so perhaps concurrently with a hole-punch).  Probably it's
+silly not to use SGP_READ already (using the ZERO_PAGE for holes): which
+ought to be safe, but might bring surprises - not a change to be rushed.
+
+shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() is an internal interface used by
+drivers/gpu/drm GEM (and next by uprobes): it should be okay.  And
+shmem_file_read_iter() uses the SGP_DIRTY variant of SGP_CACHE, when
+called internally by the kernel (perhaps for a stacking filesystem,
+which might rely on holes to be reserved): it's unclear whether it could
+be provoked to keep hole-punch busy or not.
+
+We could apply the same umbrella as now used in shmem_fault() to
+shmem_file_splice_read() and the others; but it looks ugly, and use over
+a range raises questions - should it actually be per page? can these get
+starved themselves?
+
+The origin of this part of the problem is my v3.1 commit d0823576bf4b
+("mm: pincer in truncate_inode_pages_range"), once it was duplicated
+into shmem.c.  It seemed like a nice idea at the time, to ensure
+(barring RCU lookup fuzziness) that there's an instant when the entire
+hole is empty; but the indefinitely repeated scans to ensure that make
+it vulnerable.
+
+Revert that "enhancement" to hole-punch from shmem_undo_range(), but
+retain the unproblematic rescanning when it's truncating; add a couple
+of comments there.
+
+Remove the "indices[0] >= end" test: that is now handled satisfactorily
+by the inner loop, and mem_cgroup_uncharge_start()/end() are too light
+to be worth avoiding here.
+
+But if we do not always loop indefinitely, we do need to handle the case
+of swap swizzled back to page before shmem_free_swap() gets it: add a
+retry for that case, as suggested by Konstantin Khlebnikov; and for the
+case of page swizzled back to swap, as suggested by Johannes Weiner.
