[stable 5.10 PATCH] mm: khugepaged: skip huge page collapse for special files

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

 



commit a4aeaa06d45e90f9b279f0b09de84bd00006e733 upstream.

The read-only THP for filesystems will collapse THP for files opened
readonly and mapped with VM_EXEC.  The intended usecase is to avoid TLB
misses for large text segments.  But it doesn't restrict the file types
so a THP could be collapsed for a non-regular file, for example, block
device, if it is opened readonly and mapped with EXEC permission.  This
may cause bugs, like [1] and [2].

This is definitely not the intended usecase, so just collapse THP for
regular files in order to close the attack surface.
