"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmm: thp: deny THP for files on anonymous inodes\n\nfile_thp_enabled() incorrectly allows THP for files on anonymous inodes\n(e.g. guest_memfd and secretmem). These files are created via\nalloc_file_pseudo(), which does not call get_write_access() and leaves\ninode->i_writecount at 0. Combined with S_ISREG(inode->i_mode) being\ntrue, they appear as read-only regular files when\nCONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS is enabled, making them eligible for THP\ncollapse.\n\nAnonymous inodes can never pass the inode_is_open_for_write() check\nsince their i_writecount is never incremented through the normal VFS\nopen path. The right thing to do is to exclude them from THP eligibility\naltogether, since CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS was designed for real\nfilesystem files (e.g. shared libraries), not for pseudo-filesystem\ninodes.\n\nFor guest_memfd, this allows khugepaged and MADV_COLLAPSE to create\nlarge folios in the page cache via the collapse path, but the\nguest_memfd fault handler does not support large folios. This triggers\nWARN_ON_ONCE(folio_test_large(folio)) in kvm_gmem_fault_user_mapping().\n\nFor secretmem, collapse_file() tries to copy page contents through the\ndirect map, but secretmem pages are removed from the direct map. This\ncan result in a kernel crash:\n\n BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffff88810284d000\n RIP: 0010:memcpy_orig+0x16/0x130\n Call Trace:\n collapse_file\n hpage_collapse_scan_file\n madvise_collapse\n\nSecretmem is not affected by the crash on upstream as the memory failure\nrecovery handles the failed copy gracefully, but it still triggers\nconfusing false memory failure reports:\n\n Memory failure: 0x106d96f: recovery action for clean unevictable\n LRU page: Recovered\n\nCheck IS_ANON_FILE(inode) in file_thp_enabled() to deny THP for all\nanonymous inode files."
