commit 1abce0580b89464546ae06abd5891ebec43c9470 upstream. Userspace PROT_NONE ptes set _PAGE_PRIVILEGED, triggering a false positive debug assertion that __pte_flags_need_flush() is not called on a kernel mapping. Detect when it is a userspace PROT_NONE page by checking the required bits of PAGE_NONE are set, and none of the RWX bits are set. pte_protnone() is insufficient here because it always returns 0 when CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=n. Fixes: b11931e9adc1 ("powerpc/64s: add pte_needs_flush and huge_pmd_needs_flush") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v6.1+ Reported-by: Russell Currey <ruscur@russell.cc> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Gray <bgray@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://msgid.link/20230302225947.81083-1-bgray@linux.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
