Subject: [PATCH 3/9] x86/mm/pat: don't populate page tables in set_memory_{en,de}crypted()
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2026 18:31:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261112-fixes-x86-v1-3-791adb8d6670@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261112-fixes-x86-v1-0-791adb8d6670@kernel.org>

__set_memory_enc_pgtable() sets cpa.pgd to init_mm.pgd. With cpa.pgd
set, CPA populates holes in init_mm instead of failing, and
__cpa_process_fault() says that only EFI does that.

So when an address in the range is not mapped, the request does not
fail. populate_pgd() maps the physical memory at cpa.pfn there, with
_KERNPG_TABLE and the encryption bits: present, writable and executable.

A caller that passes an unmapped address is buggy, but it must not get a
new mapping of some random physical memory.

Drop the assignment. The request then walks init_mm as usual: a hole in
the direct map is skipped and any other unmapped address fails with
-EFAULT, as for the other set_memory APIs.

Fixes: 77bd2342d430 ("x86/mm: Add support for changing the memory encryption attribute")
