Subject: [PATCH] mm/ksm: Fix kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000040
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2020 14:20:50 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200414062050.66644-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com> (raw)

The find_mergeable_vma can return NULL. In this case, it leads
to crash when we access vma->vm_mm(which's offset is 0x40) in
write_protect_page. And this case did happen on our server. The
following calltrace is captured in kernel 4.19 with ksm enabled.
So add a vma check to fix it.
