[PATCH 6.8 441/493] lib/test_hmm.c: handle src_pfns and dst_pfns allocation failure

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

 



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

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

From: Duoming Zhou <duoming@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c2af060d1c18beaec56351cf9c9bcbbc5af341a3 ]

The kcalloc() in dmirror_device_evict_chunk() will return null if the
physical memory has run out.  As a result, if src_pfns or dst_pfns is
dereferenced, the null pointer dereference bug will happen.

Moreover, the device is going away.  If the kcalloc() fails, the pages
mapping a chunk could not be evicted.  So add a __GFP_NOFAIL flag in
kcalloc().

Finally, as there is no need to have physically contiguous memory, Switch
kcalloc() to kvcalloc() in order to avoid failing allocations.
