[PATCH 6.2 180/187] KVM: arm64: Check for kvm_vma_mte_allowed in the critical section

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

 



From: Marc Zyngier <maz@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8c2e8ac8ad4be68409e806ce1cc78fc7a04539f3 upstream.

On page fault, we find about the VMA that backs the page fault
early on, and quickly release the mmap_read_lock. However, using
the VMA pointer after the critical section is pretty dangerous,
as a teardown may happen in the meantime and the VMA be long gone.

Move the sampling of the MTE permission early, and NULL-ify the
VMA pointer after that, just to be on the safe side.
