Subject: [PATCH kernel v5 0/2] KVM: PPC: Check if IOMMU page is contained in the pinned physical page
Date: Sat, 7 Jul 2018 20:44:08 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180707104410.46589-1-aik@ozlabs.ru> (raw)
This is to improve page boundaries checking and should probably
be cc:stable. I came accross this while debugging nvlink2 passthrough
but the lack of checking might be exploited by the existing userspace.
The get_user_pages() comment says it should be "phased out" but the only
alternative seems to be get_user_pages_longterm(), should that be used
instead (this is longterm reference elevation, however it is not DAX,
whatever this implies)? get_user_pages_remote() seems unnecessarily
complicated because of @locked.
Changes:
v5:
* 2/2: changed compound pages handling
v4:
* 2/2: implemented less strict but still safe max pageshift as David suggested
v3:
* enforced huge pages not to cross preregistered chunk boundaries
v2:
* 2/2: explicitly check for compound pages before calling compound_order()
This is based on sha1
021c917 Linus Torvalds "Linux 4.18-rc3".
Please comment. Thanks.
