Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] Fixes for pte encapsulation bypasses
Date: Fri,  2 Jun 2023 10:29:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230602092949.545577-1-ryan.roberts@arm.com> (raw)

This is the first half of v3 of a series to improve the encapsulation of pte
entries by disallowing non-arch code from directly dereferencing pte_t pointers.
Based on earlier feedback, I've split the series in 2; this first part contains
fixes for existing bugs that were discovered during the work. The second part,
which contains the new changes I'm adding, will be posted separately.

These fixes have had a fair amount of review now so I hope they can be
considered for addition to the appropriate mm- branch as is. And I've cc'ed
stable since I believe they should be candidates for backport.

See the v1 cover letter at [1] for rationale and explanation of overall
objective (requires both parts of the split series to achieve).

The series is split up as follows:

patch 1-2:  Fix bugs where code was _setting_ ptes directly, rather than using
            set_pte_at() and friends. Data corruption was theoretically
	    possible.
patch 3:    Minor refactoring requested in v2 review.
patch 4:    Fix highmem unmapping issue I spotted while doing the work.

Patches are based on v6.4-rc4 and a branch is available at [3].

Changes since v2 [2]:
   - patch 2: minor commit message rewording to fix review nits
   - patch 3: Refactored damon code to use {pte|pmd}p_clear_young_notify()
   - patch 1-4: applied Ack/Reviewed-by tags; thanks for those!

Changes since v1 [1]:
   - patch 1: Refactored pfn to use local variable
   - patch 1-2: Minor rewording of commit message: 'verify' -> 'check'
   - patch 1-3: applied Ack/Reviewed-by tags; thanks for those!
