[PATCH 4.14 10/74] x86/mm/dump_pagetables: Check PAGE_PRESENT for real

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

 



4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c05344947b37f7cda726e802457370bc6eac4d26 upstream.

The check for a present page in printk_prot():

       if (!pgprot_val(prot)) {
                /* Not present */

is bogus. If a PTE is set to PAGE_NONE then the pgprot_val is not zero and
the entry is decoded in bogus ways, e.g. as RX GLB. That is confusing when
analyzing mapping correctness. Check for the present bit to make an
informed decision.
