Subject: [PATCH v2] mm/mremap: fix regression in vrm->new_addr check
Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2025 14:26:56 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250828142657.770502-1-cmllamas@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <8a4dc910-5237-48aa-8abb-a6d5044bc290@lucifer.local>

Commit 3215eaceca87 ("mm/mremap: refactor initial parameter sanity
checks") moved the sanity check for vrm->new_addr from mremap_to() to
check_mremap_params().

However, this caused a regression as vrm->new_addr is now checked even
when MREMAP_FIXED and MREMAP_DONTUNMAP flags are not specified. In this
case, vrm->new_addr can be garbage and create unexpected failures.

Fix this by moving the new_addr check after the vrm_implies_new_addr()
guard. This ensures that the new_addr is only checked when the user has
specified one explicitly.
