[PATCH kernel] KVM: PPC: Book3S: Suppress failed alloc warning in H_COPY_TOFROM_GUEST

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



H_COPY_TOFROM_GUEST is an hcall for an upper level VM to access its nested
VMs memory. The userspace can trigger WARN_ON_ONCE(!(gfp & __GFP_NOWARN))
in __alloc_pages() by constructing a tiny VM which only does
H_COPY_TOFROM_GUEST with a too big GPR9 (number of bytes to copy).

This silences the warning by adding __GFP_NOWARN.

Spotted by syzkaller.
