The patch titled Subject: hugetlbfs: ensure generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() returns higher address than mmap_min_addr has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is hugetlbfs-ensure-generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area-returns-higher-address-than-mmap_min_addr.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/hugetlbfs-ensure-generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area-returns-higher-address-than-mmap_min_addr.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Donet Tom <donettom@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: hugetlbfs: ensure generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() returns higher address than mmap_min_addr Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2024 00:19:12 -0500 generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() was returning an address less than mmap_min_addr if the mmap argument addr, after alignment, was less than mmap_min_addr, causing mmap to fail. This is because current generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() code does not take into account mmap_min_addr. This patch ensures that generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() always returns an address that is greater than mmap_min_addr. Additionally, similar to generic_get_unmapped_area(), vm_end_gap() checks are included to maintain stack gap. How to reproduce ================ #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <unistd.h> #define HUGEPAGE_SIZE (16 * 1024 * 1024) int main() { void *addr = mmap((void *)-1, HUGEPAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB, -1, 0); if (addr == MAP_FAILED) { perror("mmap"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } snprintf((char *)addr, HUGEPAGE_SIZE, "Hello, Huge Pages!"); printf("%s\n", (char *)addr); if (munmap(addr, HUGEPAGE_SIZE) == -1) { perror("munmap"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } return 0; } Result without fix ================== # cat /proc/meminfo |grep -i HugePages_Free HugePages_Free: 20 # ./test mmap: Permission denied # Result with fix =============== # cat /proc/meminfo |grep -i HugePages_Free HugePages_Free: 20 # ./test Hello, Huge Pages! # Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240710051912.4681-1-donettom@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Donet Tom <donettom@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reported-by Pavithra Prakash <pavrampu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Kirill A.
