Subject: [PATCH v9 2/4] alloc_tag: clean up the populate failure path
Date: Tue,  8 Sep 2026 17:24:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260908092412.115953-3-hao.ge@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260908092412.115953-1-hao.ge@linux.dev>

The reservation is already stored in the maple tree when
vm_module_tags_populate() fails. A failed load never unloads the
module, so nothing releases the entry. Release it and roll
module_tags.size back. Without the rollback a concurrent load that
already passed needs_section_mem() can reuse the freed gap, skip
vm_module_tags_populate() and write to unmapped memory.

vmap_pages_range() may have installed some PTEs before failing. A
retry to populate the same range would BUG on them, so undo them,
but only if vmap actually ran.

Fixes: 4835f747d3ed ("alloc_tag: support for page allocation tag compression")
Fixes: 0f9b685626da ("alloc_tag: populate memory for module tags as needed")
