has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     xarray-fix-index-jumping-backwards-in-xas_find.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: xarray: fix index jumping backwards in xas_find()
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 14:12:59 +0200

A bug in the XArray iterator xas_find() causes the iterator's index
(xas->xa_index) to jump backwards when iterating over a multi-index entry
(like a THP) that resides in a non-leaf node and is concurrently split.

When iterating over a multi-index entry in a non-leaf node, xas_load()
sets xas->xa_offset to the base offset of the entry, but leaves
xas->xa_index at the requested index.  When the caller subsequently wants
to advance to the next entry, xas_find() is called.  xas_find() attempts
to synchronize xas->xa_offset with xas->xa_index before advancing. 
However, the fixup logic was incorrectly restricted to leaf nodes
(!xas->xa_node->shift).  Because the THP resides in a non-leaf node, the
fixup is skipped.

As a result, xas_find() simply increments xas->xa_offset and recalculates
xas->xa_index based on this new offset.  This causes xas->xa_index to jump
backwards.  If the THP was concurrently split, the entry at the new offset
is a node pointer, so xas_find() descends into it and returns the folio at
the backwards index.  The caller (filemap_map_pages()) then calculates the
PTE pointer based on this backwards index, resulting in an invalid memory
access such as an out-of-bounds read or use-after-free on a page-table
page freed via tlb_remove_table_rcu().

A userspace access that faults in a file-backed mapping can trigger this
path.  When the index moves backwards, filemap_map_pages() can calculate a
PTE outside the page locked for fault-around and dereference a freed
page-table page, resulting in a KASAN-detected use-after-free read.

To fix this, check if xas->xa_offset matches get_offset(xas->xa_index,
xas->xa_node).  If it does not and the node is a non-leaf node, set
xas->xa_offset to get_offset(xas->xa_index, xas->xa_node) before
advancing.  Also add test cases in test_xarray to verify xas_find()
behavior when iterating over and splitting multi-index entries.
