commit05d351102dupstream. F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE has unexpected behavior when used with MAP_PRIVATE: A private mapping created after the memfd file that gets sealed with F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE loses the copy-on-write at fork behavior, meaning children and parent share the same memory, even though the mapping is private. The reason for this is due to the code below: static int shmem_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct *vma) { struct shmem_inode_info *info = SHMEM_I(file_inode(file)); if (info->seals & F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE) { /* * New PROT_WRITE and MAP_SHARED mmaps are not allowed when * "future write" seal active. */ if ((vma->vm_flags & VM_SHARED) && (vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE)) return -EPERM; /* * Since the F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seals allow for a MAP_SHARED * read-only mapping, take care to not allow mprotect to revert * protections. */ vma->vm_flags &= ~(VM_MAYWRITE); } ... } And for the mm to know if a mapping is copy-on-write: static inline bool is_cow_mapping(vm_flags_t flags) { return (flags & (VM_SHARED | VM_MAYWRITE)) == VM_MAYWRITE; } The patch fixes the issue by making the mprotect revert protection happen only for shared mappings. For private mappings, using mprotect will have no effect on the seal behavior. The F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE feature was introduced in v5.1 so v5.3.x stable kernels would need a backport.

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.
