Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y 2/4] mm: update memfd seal write check to include F_SEAL_WRITE
Date: Tue, 29 Jul 2025 18:53:31 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250730015337.31730-3-isaacmanjarres@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250730015337.31730-1-isaacmanjarres@google.com>
From: Lorenzo Stoakes <lstoakes@gmail.com>
[ Upstream commit 28464bbb2ddc199433383994bcb9600c8034afa1 ]
The seal_check_future_write() function is called by shmem_mmap() or
hugetlbfs_file_mmap() to disallow any future writable mappings of an memfd
sealed this way.
The F_SEAL_WRITE flag is not checked here, as that is handled via the
mapping->i_mmap_writable mechanism and so any attempt at a mapping would
fail before this could be run.
However we intend to change this, meaning this check can be performed for
F_SEAL_WRITE mappings also.
The logic here is equally applicable to both flags, so update this
function to accommodate both and rename it accordingly.
