Barry Song 4e95072462 mm: fix kernel BUG when userfaultfd_move encounters swapcache 
commit c50f8e6053 upstream.

userfaultfd_move() checks whether the PTE entry is present or a
swap entry.

- If the PTE entry is present, move_present_pte() handles folio
  migration by setting:

  src_folio->index = linear_page_index(dst_vma, dst_addr);

- If the PTE entry is a swap entry, move_swap_pte() simply copies
  the PTE to the new dst_addr.

This approach is incorrect because, even if the PTE is a swap entry,
it can still reference a folio that remains in the swap cache.

This creates a race window between steps 2 and 4.
 1. add_to_swap: The folio is added to the swapcache.
 2. try_to_unmap: PTEs are converted to swap entries.
 3. pageout: The folio is written back.
 4. Swapcache is cleared.
If userfaultfd_move() occurs in the window between steps 2 and 4,
after the swap PTE has been moved to the destination, accessing the
destination triggers do_swap_page(), which may locate the folio in
the swapcache. However, since the folio's index has not been updated
to match the destination VMA, do_swap_page() will detect a mismatch.

This can result in two critical issues depending on the system
configuration.

If KSM is disabled, both small and large folios can trigger a BUG
during the add_rmap operation due to:

 page_pgoff(folio, page) != linear_page_index(vma, address)

If KSM is enabled, Peter Xu also discovered that do_swap_page() may
trigger an unexpected CoW operation for small folios because
ksm_might_need_to_copy() allocates a new folio when the folio index
does not match linear_page_index(vma, addr).

This patch also checks the swapcache when handling swap entries. If a
match is found in the swapcache, it processes it similarly to a present
PTE.
However, there are some differences. For example, the folio is no longer
exclusive because folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte() is performed during
unmapping.
Furthermore, in the case of swapcache, the folio has already been
unmapped, eliminating the risk of concurrent rmap walks and removing the
need to acquire src_folio's anon_vma or lock.

Note that for large folios, in the swapcache handling path, we directly
return -EBUSY since split_folio() will return -EBUSY regardless if
the folio is under writeback or unmapped. This is not an urgent issue,
so a follow-up patch may address it separately.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
