Subject: [08/19] mm: fix wrong vmap address calculations with odd NR_CPUS values
Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2011 14:58:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110826220120.404233543@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110826220137.GA14059@kroah.com>
2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de>
commit f982f91516fa4cfd9d20518833cd04ad714585be upstream.
Commit db64fe02258f ("mm: rewrite vmap layer") introduced code that does
address calculations under the assumption that VMAP_BLOCK_SIZE is a
power of two. However, this might not be true if CONFIG_NR_CPUS is not
set to a power of two.
Wrong vmap_block index/offset values could lead to memory corruption.
However, this has never been observed in practice (or never been
diagnosed correctly); what caught this was the BUG_ON in vb_alloc() that
checks for inconsistent vmap_block indices.
To fix this, ensure that VMAP_BLOCK_SIZE always is a power of two.
