Subject: [PATCH v2] dma-buf: set SB_I_NOEXEC and SB_I_NODEV on the pseudo filesystem
Date: Fri, 22 May 2026 18:11:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260523011117.121390-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com> (raw)

The dma-buf pseudo filesystem dispenses S_ANON_INODE inodes via
alloc_anon_inode() but never sets SB_I_NOEXEC on its superblock.
Since commit 1e7ab6f67824 ("anon_inode: rework assertions") in 6.17,
path_noexec() warns on exactly that combination, so an mmap() on any
dma-buf fd trips the warning:

  WARNING: CPU: 11 PID: 121813 at fs/exec.c:118 path_noexec+0x47/0x50
   do_mmap+0x2b5/0x680
   vm_mmap_pgoff+0x129/0x210
   ksys_mmap_pgoff+0x177/0x240
   __x64_sys_mmap+0x33/0x70

dma-bufs have no business being executable, which is the invariant
that the new assertion is enforcing. Set SB_I_NOEXEC. Also set
SB_I_NODEV, since the pseudo filesystem creates no device nodes.

Reproducer on a CONFIG_DEBUG_VFS=y kernel:

  make -C tools/testing/selftests/dmabuf-heaps
  sudo ./tools/testing/selftests/dmabuf-heaps/dmabuf-heap -t system

The selftest allocates from /dev/dma_heap/system and mmaps the
returned fd, which trips the warning without this patch.

Changes since v1:

   * Also set SB_I_NODEV (suggested by Christian Brauner).
   * Added Christian Brauner's Reviewed-by tag (thanks!)
