[PATCH 4.19 31/33] xen/pvcalls: use alloc/free_pages_exact()

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

 



From: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>

Commit b0576cc9c6b843d99c6982888d59a56209341888 upstream.

Instead of __get_free_pages() and free_pages() use alloc_pages_exact()
and free_pages_exact(). This is in preparation of a change of
gnttab_end_foreign_access() which will prohibit use of high-order
pages.

This is part of CVE-2022-23041 / XSA-396.
