This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled xen/xenbus: Fix granting of vmalloc'd memory to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: xen-xenbus-fix-granting-of-vmalloc-d-memory.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit aca44ae7d2b14277fead2142c4d9a6e07efae2ac Author: Simon Leiner <simon@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Aug 25 11:31:52 2020 +0200 xen/xenbus: Fix granting of vmalloc'd memory [ Upstream commit d742db70033c745e410523e00522ee0cfe2aa416 ] On some architectures (like ARM), virt_to_gfn cannot be used for vmalloc'd memory because of its reliance on virt_to_phys. This patch introduces a check for vmalloc'd addresses and obtains the PFN using vmalloc_to_pfn in that case.
