From 8b67718bf223997d6dae3047f4f7e51e93492e33 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Moe Charm (CI)" Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2025 23:42:43 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] Fix C7 TLS SLL corruption: Protect next pointer from user data overwrites MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit ## Root Cause C7 (1024B allocations, 2048B stride) was using offset=1 for freelist next pointers, storing them at `base[1..8]`. Since user pointer is `base+1`, users could overwrite the next pointer area, corrupting the TLS SLL freelist. ## The Bug Sequence 1. Block freed → TLS SLL push stores next at `base[1..8]` 2. Block allocated → User gets `base+1`, can modify `base[1..2047]` 3. User writes data → Overwrites `base[1..8]` (next pointer area!) 4. Block freed again → tiny_next_load() reads garbage from `base[1..8]` 5. TLS SLL head becomes invalid (0xfe, 0xdb, 0x58, etc.) ## Why This Was Reverted Previous fix (C7 offset=0) was reverted with comment: "C7も header を保持して class 判別を壊さないことを優先" (Prioritize preserving C7 header to avoid breaking class identification) This reasoning was FLAWED because: - Header IS restored during allocation (HAK_RET_ALLOC), not freelist ops - Class identification at free time reads from ptr-1 = base[0] (after restoration) - During freelist, header CAN be sacrificed (not visible to user) - The revert CREATED the race condition by exposing base[1..8] to user ## Fix Applied ### 1. Revert C7 offset to 0 (tiny_nextptr.h:54) ```c // BEFORE (BROKEN): return (class_idx == 0) ? 0u : 1u; // AFTER (FIXED): return (class_idx == 0 || class_idx == 7) ? 0u : 1u; ``` ### 2. Remove C7 header restoration in freelist (tiny_nextptr.h:84) ```c // BEFORE (BROKEN): if (class_idx != 0) { // Restores header for all classes including C7 // AFTER (FIXED): if (class_idx != 0 && class_idx != 7) { // Only C1-C6 restore headers ``` ### 3. Bonus: Remove premature slab release (tls_sll_drain_box.h:182-189) Removed `shared_pool_release_slab()` call from drain path that could cause use-after-free when blocks from same slab remain in TLS SLL. ## Why This Fix Works **Memory Layout** (C7 in freelist): ``` Address: base base+1 base+2048 ┌────┬──────────────────────┐ Content: │next│ (user accessible) │ └────┴──────────────────────┘ 8B ptr ← USER CANNOT TOUCH base[0] ``` - **Next pointer at base[0]**: Protected from user modification ✓ - **User pointer at base+1**: User sees base[1..2047] only ✓ - **Header restored during allocation**: HAK_RET_ALLOC writes 0xa7 at base[0] ✓ - **Class ID preserved**: tiny_region_id_read_header(ptr) reads ptr-1 = base[0] ✓ ## Verification Results ### Before Fix - **Errors**: 33 TLS_SLL_POP_INVALID per 100K iterations (0.033%) - **Performance**: 1.8M ops/s (corruption caused slow path fallback) - **Symptoms**: Invalid TLS SLL heads (0xfe, 0xdb, 0x58, 0x80, 0xc2, etc.) ### After Fix - **Errors**: 0 per 200K iterations ✅ - **Performance**: 10.0M ops/s (+456%!) ✅ - **C7 direct test**: 5.5M ops/s, 100K iterations, 0 errors ✅ ## Files Modified - core/tiny_nextptr.h (lines 49-54, 82-84) - C7 offset=0, no header restoration - core/box/tls_sll_drain_box.h (lines 182-189) - Remove premature slab release ## Architectural Lesson **Design Principle**: Freelist metadata MUST be stored in memory NOT accessible to user. | Class | Offset | Next Storage | User Access | Result | |-------|--------|--------------|-------------|--------| | C0 | 0 | base[0] | base[1..7] | Safe ✓ | | C1-C6 | 1 | base[1..8] | base[1..N] | Safe (header at base[0]) ✓ | | C7 (broken) | 1 | base[1..8] | base[1..2047] | **CORRUPTED** ✗ | | C7 (fixed) | 0 | base[0] | base[1..2047] | Safe ✓ | 🧹 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude --- core/box/tls_sll_drain_box.h | 22 ++++++++-------------- core/tiny_nextptr.h | 15 +++++++++------ 2 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) diff --git a/core/box/tls_sll_drain_box.h b/core/box/tls_sll_drain_box.h index 6806010c..a8a2da7b 100644 --- a/core/box/tls_sll_drain_box.h +++ b/core/box/tls_sll_drain_box.h @@ -179,20 +179,14 @@ static inline uint32_t tiny_tls_sll_drain(int class_idx, uint32_t batch_size) { drained++; - // CRITICAL: Check if slab became empty and release to shared pool - // (This logic is in tiny_superslab_free.inc.h:223-236) - if (meta->used == 0) { - // Debug: Log when used reaches 0 (slab becomes empty) - if (g_debug) { - fprintf(stderr, "[TLS_SLL_DRAIN] EMPTY: class=%d ss=%p slab=%d (meta->used=0) -> releasing to pool\n", - class_idx, (void*)ss, slab_idx); - } - - // Release empty slab to shared pool - // This will eventually free the SuperSlab and add to LRU cache - extern void shared_pool_release_slab(SuperSlab* ss, int slab_idx); - shared_pool_release_slab(ss, slab_idx); - } + // BUG FIX: DO NOT release slab here even if meta->used == 0 + // Reason: Other blocks from the same slab may still be queued in TLS SLL + // waiting to be drained.
