"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nsched/isolation: Defer freeing of cpumask memblock memory to initcall\n\nWhen testing a linux-next kernel with commit 59bd1d914bb5 (\"memblock:\nwarn when freeing reserved memory before memory map is initialized\"),\nthe following warning was hit when there was a \"nohz_full\" kernel boot\nparameter.\n\n Cannot free reserved memory because of deferred initialization of the memory map\n WARNING: mm/memblock.c:904 at __free_reserved_area+0xde/0xf0, CPU#0: swapper/0/0\n :\n Call Trace:\n <TASK>\n memblock_phys_free+0xcb/0x100\n housekeeping_init+0x14c/0x170\n start_kernel+0x207/0x450\n x86_64_start_reservations+0x24/0x30\n x86_64_start_kernel+0xda/0xe0\n common_startup_64+0x13e/0x141\n </TASK>\n\nIOW, we shouldn't free memblock allocated memory so early\nin the boot process when memory map isn't fully initialized in\ndeferred_init_memmap().\n\nFix it by saving the housekeeping cpumask memblock memory to be\nfreed into a llist free list in housekeeping_init() and add a new\nhousekeeping_late_init() helper to defer the actual freeing of memblock\nmemory to when initcall's are being processed. The cpumask memblock\nmemory is treated as a llist_node with the size of a \"long\" type which\nis also smallest cpumask size that can be allocated.\n\nThe non-atomic version of the llist APIs are used as there is no\ncontention.\n\nThis commit depends on the presence of commit 7c2eee9c1367 (\"memblock:\ndon't touch memblock arrays when memblock_free() is called late\")\nto prevent a KASAN UAF bug report [1].\n\n [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260505051821.1107133-1-longman@redhat.com/"
