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

 



commit f045402984404ddc11016358411e445192919047 upstream.

The backport for v4.4 differs from the upstream patch because
some of the patched code has been moved to new files.

    s390/mm: fix gmap tlb flush issues
    
    __tlb_flush_asce() should never be used if multiple asce belong to a mm.
    
    As this function changes mm logic determining if local or global tlb
    flushes will be neded, we might end up flushing only the gmap asce on all
    CPUs and a follow up mm asce flushes will only flush on the local CPU,
    although that asce ran on multiple CPUs.
    
    The missing tlb flushes will provoke strange faults in user space and even
    low address protections in user space, crashing the kernel.
