[ Upstream commit 22e5fe2a2a279d9a6fcbdfb4dffe73821bef1c90 ]
userfaultfd assumes that the enabled features are set once and never
changed after UFFDIO_API ioctl succeeded.
However, currently, UFFDIO_API can be called concurrently from two
different threads, succeed on both threads and leave userfaultfd's
features in non-deterministic state. Theoretically, other uffd operations
(ioctl's and page-faults) can be dispatched while adversely affected by
such changes of features.
Moreover, the writes to ctx->state and ctx->features are not ordered,
which can - theoretically, again - let userfaultfd_ioctl() think that
userfaultfd API completed, while the features are still not initialized.
To avoid races, it is arguably best to get rid of ctx->state. Since there
are only 2 states, record the API initialization in ctx->features as the
uppermost bit and remove ctx->state.

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 Restructured Text 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.
