[PATCH 6.6.y 0/5] fix error handling in mmap_region() and refactor (hotfixes)

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

 



Critical fixes for mmap_region(), backported to 6.6.y.

Some notes on differences from upstream:

* In this kernel is_shared_maywrite() does not exist and the code uses
  VM_SHARED to determine whether mapping_map_writable() /
  mapping_unmap_writable() should be invoked. This backport therefore
  follows suit.

* Each version of these series is confronted by a slightly different
  mmap_region(), so we must adapt the change for each stable version. The
  approach remains the same throughout, however, and we correctly avoid
  closing the VMA part way through any __mmap_region() operation.

Lorenzo Stoakes (5):
  mm: avoid unsafe VMA hook invocation when error arises on mmap hook
  mm: unconditionally close VMAs on error
  mm: refactor map_deny_write_exec()
  mm: refactor arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and arm64 MTE handling
  mm: resolve faulty mmap_region() error path behaviour
