Summary
Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: highmem: fix checks in __kmap_local_sched_{in,out} When CONFIG_DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL is enabled __kmap_local_sched_{in,out} check
that even slots in the tsk->kmap_ctrl.pteval are unmapped. The slots are
initialized with 0 value, but the check is done with pte_none. 0 pte
however does not necessarily mean that pte_none will return true. e.g.
on xtensa it returns false, resulting in the following runtime warnings: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 101 at mm/highmem.c:627 __kmap_local_sched_out+0x51/0x108 CPU: 0 PID: 101 Comm: touch Not tainted 5.17.0-rc7-00010-gd3a1cdde80d2-dirty #13 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xc/0x40 __warn+0x8f/0x174 warn_slowpath_fmt+0x48/0xac __kmap_local_sched_out+0x51/0x108 __schedule+0x71a/0x9c4 preempt_schedule_irq+0xa0/0xe0 common_exception_return+0x5c/0x93 do_wp_page+0x30e/0x330 handle_mm_fault+0xa70/0xc3c do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x3c4 common_exception+0x7f/0x7f WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 101 at mm/highmem.c:664 __kmap_local_sched_in+0x50/0xe0 CPU: 0 PID: 101 Comm: touch Tainted: G W 5.17.0-rc7-00010-gd3a1cdde80d2-dirty #13 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xc/0x40 __warn+0x8f/0x174 warn_slowpath_fmt+0x48/0xac __kmap_local_sched_in+0x50/0xe0 finish_task_switch$isra$0+0x1ce/0x2f8 __schedule+0x86e/0x9c4 preempt_schedule_irq+0xa0/0xe0 common_exception_return+0x5c/0x93 do_wp_page+0x30e/0x330 handle_mm_fault+0xa70/0xc3c do_page_fault+0x1d8/0x3c4 common_exception+0x7f/0x7f Fix it by replacing !pte_none(pteval) with pte_val(pteval) != 0.
