oom_kill.c: futex: delay the OOM reaper to allow time for proper futex cleanup
commit e4a38402c36e42df28eb1a5394be87e6571fb48a upstream.
The pthread struct is allocated on PRIVATE|ANONYMOUS memory [1] which
can be targeted by the oom reaper. This mapping is used to store the
futex robust list head; the kernel does not keep a copy of the robust
list and instead references a userspace address to maintain the
robustness during a process death.
A race can occur between exit_mm and the oom reaper that allows the oom
reaper to free the memory of the futex robust list before the exit path
has handled the futex death:
CPU1 CPU2
--------------------------------------------------------------------
page_fault
do_exit "signal"
wake_oom_reaper
oom_reaper
oom_reap_task_mm (invalidates mm)
exit_mm
exit_mm_release
futex_exit_release
futex_cleanup
exit_robust_list
get_user (EFAULT- can't access memory)
If the get_user EFAULT's, the kernel will be unable to recover the
waiters on the robust_list, leaving userspace mutexes hung indefinitely.
Delay the OOM reaper, allowing more time for the exit path to perform
the futex cleanup.
