commit 246c320a8cfe0b11d81a4af38fa9985ef0cc9a4c upstream.
VMA with VM_GROWSDOWN or VM_GROWSUP flag set can change their size under
mmap_read_lock(). It can lead to race with __do_munmap():
Thread A Thread B
__do_munmap()
detach_vmas_to_be_unmapped()
mmap_write_downgrade()
expand_downwards()
vma->vm_start = address;
// The VMA now overlaps with
// VMAs detached by the Thread A
// page fault populates expanded part
// of the VMA
unmap_region()
// Zaps pagetables partly
// populated by Thread B
Similar race exists for expand_upwards().
The fix is to avoid downgrading mmap_lock in __do_munmap() if detached
VMAs are next to VM_GROWSDOWN or VM_GROWSUP VMA.

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.
