commit 34b1999da935a33be6239226bfa6cd4f704c5c88 upstream. Jiri Olsa reported a fault when running: # cat /proc/kallsyms | grep ksys_read ffffffff8136d580 T ksys_read # objdump -d --start-address=0xffffffff8136d580 --stop-address=0xffffffff8136d590 /proc/kcore /proc/kcore: file format elf64-x86-64 Segmentation fault general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xf887ffcbff000: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI CPU: 12 PID: 1079 Comm: objdump Not tainted 5.14.0-rc5qemu+ #508 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.14.0-4.fc34 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:kern_addr_valid Call Trace: read_kcore ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? trace_hardirqs_on ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? lock_acquire ? lock_acquire ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? lock_acquire ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? lock_release ? _raw_spin_unlock ? __handle_mm_fault ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? lock_acquire ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held ? lock_release proc_reg_read ? vfs_read vfs_read ksys_read do_syscall_64 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe The fault happens because kern_addr_valid() dereferences existent but not present PMD in the high kernel mappings. Such PMDs are created when free_kernel_image_pages() frees regions larger than 2Mb. In this case, a part of the freed memory is mapped with PMDs and the set_memory_np_noalias() -> ... -> __change_page_attr() sequence will mark the PMD as not present rather than wipe it completely. Have kern_addr_valid() check whether higher level page table entries are present before trying to dereference them to fix this issue and to avoid similar issues in the future. Stable backporting note: ------------------------ Note that the stable marking is for all active stable branches because there could be cases where pagetable entries exist but are not valid - see |
