Since commit c56e022c0a27 ("io_uring: add support for user mapped provided buffer ring"), landed in Linux 6.4, io_uring makes it possible to allocate, mmap, and deallocate "buffer rings". A "buffer ring" can be allocated with io_uring_register(..., IORING_REGISTER_PBUF_RING, ...) and later deallocated with io_uring_register(..., IORING_UNREGISTER_PBUF_RING, ...). It can be mapped into userspace using mmap() with offset IORING_OFF_PBUF_RING|..., which creates a VM_PFNMAP mapping, meaning the MM subsystem will treat the mapping as a set of opaque page frame numbers not associated with any corresponding pages; this implies that the calling code is responsible for ensuring that the mapped memory can not be freed before the userspace mapping is removed. However, there is no mechanism to ensure this in io_uring: It is possible to just register a buffer ring with IORING_REGISTER_PBUF_RING, mmap() it, and then free the buffer ring's pages with IORING_UNREGISTER_PBUF_RING, leaving free pages mapped into userspace, which is a fairly easily exploitable situation.
