Subject: [GIT PULL] arm64 fixes for 7.4-rc2
Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2026 20:01:17 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <au4yDc-l14h7hwMI@arm.com> (raw)
Hi Linus,
Please pull the arm64 fixes below: SDEI (software delegated exception
interface) handlers taking nested exceptions (looping on the KPTI
trampoline vectors and clobbering the interrupted context's exception
registers), TPIDR2_EL0 preservation across CPU suspend, a
kexec_file_load() memory leak and an overflow in the /dev/mem
valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() check.
Thanks.

arm64: sdei: Preserve the interrupted context's exception registers (2026-11-06 17:43:20 +0000)
----------------------------------------------------------------
arm64 fixes:
- Fix nested exceptions taken by SDEI event handlers. With KPTI, an
event interrupting user space left the trampoline vectors installed
and any exception in the handler looped forever. Also save and
restore ELR/SPSR/ESR/FAR around the handler since an event can
interrupt exception entry or return where these registers are live
- Save and restore TPIDR2_EL0 across CPU suspend. Its value is UNKNOWN
after a warm reset and the task initiating suspend could return to
user space with a corrupted value
- Fix an overflow in valid_mmap_phys_addr_range() allowing /dev/mem to
map out-of-range PFNs
- Fix an elf_headers memory leak in the kexec_file segment placement
retry loop
