[patch 01/18] mm/migrate: fix indexing bug (off by one) and avoid out of bound access

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

 



From: Mark Hairgrove <mhairgrove@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/migrate: fix indexing bug (off by one) and avoid out of bound access

Index was incremented before last use and thus the second array could
dereference to an invalid address (not mentioning the fact that it did not
properly clear the entry we intended to clear).

Fixes: 8315ada7f095bf ("mm/migrate: allow migrate_vma() to alloc new page on empty entry")
