[PATCH 5.15 34/83] mm,hwpoison: check mm when killing accessing process

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

 



From: Shuai Xue <xueshuai@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 77677cdbc2aa4b5d5d839562793d3d126201d18d upstream.

The GHES code calls memory_failure_queue() from IRQ context to queue work
into workqueue and schedule it on the current CPU.  Then the work is
processed in memory_failure_work_func() by kworker and calls
memory_failure().

When a page is already poisoned, commit a3f5d80ea401 ("mm,hwpoison: send
SIGBUS with error virutal address") make memory_failure() call
kill_accessing_process() that:

    - holds mmap locking of current->mm
    - does pagetable walk to find the error virtual address
    - and sends SIGBUS to the current process with error info.

However, the mm of kworker is not valid, resulting in a null-pointer
dereference.  So check mm when killing the accessing process.
