Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ARM: 9359/1: flush: check if the folio is reserved for no-mapping addresses
Since commit a4d5613c4dc6 ("arm: extend pfn_valid to take into account
freed memory map alignment") changes the semantics of pfn_valid() to check
presence of the memory map for a PFN. A valid page for an address which
is reserved but not mapped by the kernel[1], the system crashed during
some uio test with the following memory layout:
node 0: [mem 0x00000000c0a00000-0x00000000cc8fffff]
node 0: [mem 0x00000000d0000000-0x00000000da1fffff]
the uio layout is:0xc0900000, 0x100000
the crash backtrace like:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address bff00000
