If two tasks cause a fault in the same page concurrently, both could end up allocating a folio and removing the page from the direct map, but only one would succeed in adding the folio to the file mapping. The task that failed undoes the effects of its attempt by (a) freeing the folio again and (b) putting the page back into the direct map. However, by doing these two operations in this order, the page becomes available to the allocator again before it is placed back in the direct mapping. If another task attempts to allocate the page between (a) and (b), and the kernel tries to access it via the direct map, it would result in a supervisor not-present page fault. Fix the ordering to restore the direct map before the folio is freed.

Commit e220917fa507 ("mm: split a folio in minimum folio order chunks") bumps the target order of split_huge_page*() to the minimum allowed order when splitting a LBS folio. This causes confusion for some split_huge_page*() callers like memory failure handling code, since they expect after-split folios all have order-0 when split succeeds but in reality get min_order_for_split() order folios and give warnings. Fix it by failing a split if the folio cannot be split to the target order. Rename try_folio_split() to try_folio_split_to_order() to reflect the added new_order parameter. Remove its unused list parameter. [The test poisons LBS folios, which cannot be split to order-0 folios, and also tries to poison all memory. The non split LBS folios take more memory than the test anticipated, leading to OOM. The patch fixed the kernel warning and the test needs some change to avoid OOM.] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20251017013630.139907-1-ziy@nvidia.com Fixes: e220917fa507 ("mm: split a folio in minimum folio order chunks") Signed-off-by: Zi Yan <ziy(a)nvidia.com> Reported-by: syzbot+e6367ea2fdab6ed46056(a)syzkaller.appspotmail.com Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/68d2c943.a70a0220.1b52b.02b3.GAE@google.com/ Reviewed-by: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof(a)kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Pankaj Raghav <p.raghav(a)samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang(a)gmail.com> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david(a)redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes(a)oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Miaohe Lin <linmiaohe(a)huawei.com> Cc: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang(a)linux.alibaba.com> Cc: Barry Song <baohua(a)kernel.org> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david(a)redhat.com> Cc: Dev Jain <dev.jain(a)arm.com> Cc: Jane Chu <jane.chu(a)oracle.com> Cc: Lance Yang <lance.yang(a)linux.dev> Cc: Liam Howlett <liam.howlett(a)oracle.com> Cc: Mariano Pache <npache(a)redhat.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy(a)infradead.org> Cc: Naoya Horiguchi <nao.horiguchi(a)gmail.com> Cc: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts(a)arm.com> Cc: Christian Brauner <brauner(a)kernel.org> Cc: <stable(a)vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm(a)linux-foundation.org> diff --git a/include/linux/huge_mm.h b/include/linux/huge_mm.h index f327d62fc985..71ac78b9f834 100644 --- a/include/linux/huge_mm.h +++ b/include/linux/huge_mm.h @@ -376,45 +376,30 @@ bool non_uniform_split_supported(struct folio *folio, unsigned int new_order, int folio_split(struct folio *folio, unsigned int new_order, struct page *page, struct list_head *list); /* - * try_folio_split - try to split a @folio at @page using non uniform split. + * try_folio_split_to_order - try to split a @folio at @page to @new_order using + * non uniform split. * @folio: folio to be split - * @page: split to order-0 at the given page - * @list: store the after-split folios + * @page: split to @new_order at the given page + * @new_order: the target split order * - * Try to split a @folio at @page using non uniform split to order-0, if - * non uniform split is not supported, fall back to uniform split. + * Try to split a @folio at @page using non uniform split to @new_order, if + * non uniform split is not supported, fall back to uniform split.

Such a pointer is saved when a tracepoint logs an event. There's no guarantee that it's still valid when the event is parsed later and the pointer is dereferenced. The kernel warns about these unsafe pointers. event 'ma_read' has unsafe pointer field 'fn' WARNING: kernel/trace/trace.c:3779 at ignore_event+0x1da/0x1e4 Mark the function names as tracepoint_string() to fix the events. One case that doesn't work without my patch would be trace-cmd record to save the binary ringbuffer and trace-cmd report to parse it in userspace. The address of __func__ can't be dereferenced from userspace but tracepoint_string will add an entry to /sys/kernel/tracing/printk_formats Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20251030155537.87972-1-martin@kaiser.cx Fixes: 54a611b60590 ("Maple Tree: add new data structure") Signed-off-by: Martin Kaiser <martin(a)kaiser.cx> Acked-by: Liam R.

If two tasks cause a fault in the same page concurrently, both could end up allocating a folio and removing the page from the direct map, but only one would succeed in adding the folio to the file mapping. The task that failed undoes the effects of its attempt by (a) freeing the folio again and (b) putting the page back into the direct map. However, by doing these two operations in this order, the page becomes available to the allocator again before it is placed back in the direct mapping. If another task attempts to allocate the page between (a) and (b), and the kernel tries to access it via the direct map, it would result in a supervisor not-present page fault.

Neither SEAMCALL nor TDCALL is gated by any software enablement other than VMXON, and so will generate a VM-Exit instead of e.g. a native #UD when executed from the guest kernel. Note! No unprivileged DoS of the L1 kernel is possible as TDCALL and SEAMCALL #GP at CPL > 0, and the CPL check is performed prior to the VMX non-root (VM-Exit) check, i.e. userspace can't crash the VM. And for a nested guest, KVM forwards unknown exits to L1, i.e. an L2 kernel can crash itself, but not L1. Note #2! The Intel® Trust Domain CPU Architectural Extensions spec's pseudocode shows the CPL > 0 check for SEAMCALL coming _after_ the VM-Exit, but that appears to be a documentation bug (likely because the CPL > 0 check was incorrectly bundled with other lower-priority #GP checks). Testing on SPR and EMR shows that the CPL > 0 check is performed before the VMX non-root check, i.e. SEAMCALL #GPs when executed in usermode. Note #3! The aforementioned Trust Domain spec uses confusing pseudocode that says that SEAMCALL will #UD if executed "inSEAM", but "inSEAM" specifically means in SEAM Root Mode, i.e. in the TDX-Module. The long- form description explicitly states that SEAMCALL generates an exit when executed in "SEAM VMX non-root operation". But that's a moot point as the TDX-Module injects #UD if the guest attempts to execute SEAMCALL, as documented in the "Unconditionally Blocked Instructions" section of the TDX-Module base specification.
