mm/pagewalk.c: report holes in hugetlb ranges
[ Upstream commit 373c4557d2aa362702c4c2d41288fb1e54990b7c ] This matters at least for the mincore syscall, which will otherwise copy uninitialized memory from the page allocator to userspace. It is probably also a correctness error for /proc/$pid/pagemap, but I haven't tested that. Removing the `walk->hugetlb_entry` condition in walk_hugetlb_range() has no effect because the caller already checks for that. This only reports holes in hugetlb ranges to callers who have specified a hugetlb_entry callback. This issue was found using an AFL-based fuzzer. v2: - don't crash on ->pte_hole==NULL (Andrew Morton) - add Cc stable (Andrew Morton) Fixes: 1e25a271c8ac ("mincore: apply page table walker on do_mincore()") Signed-off-by: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@verizon.com>
