Re-check sp->nx_huge_page_disallowed under the tdp_mmu_pages_lock spinlock when adding a new shadow page in the TDP MMU. To ensure the NX reclaim kthread can't see a not-yet-linked shadow page, the page fault path links the new page table prior to adding the page to possible_nx_huge_pages. If the page is zapped by different task, e.g. because dirty logging is disabled, between linking the page and adding it to the list, KVM can end up triggering use-after-free by adding the zapped SP to the aforementioned list, as the zapped SP's memory is scheduled for removal via RCU callback. The bug is detected by the sanity checks guarded by CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST=y, i.e. the below splat is just one possible signature. ------------[ cut here ]------------ list_add corruption. prev->next should be next (ffffc9000071fa70), but was ffff88811125ee38.
