"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmm: don't schedule deferred kernel page table freeing while booting\n\nBooting with a boot-time function tracer and a filter, for example\n\n ftrace=function ftrace_filter=pud_free_pmd_page\n\npanics on 7.3-rc4 as soon as the tracer starts:\n\n [ 23.531178] Starting tracer 'function'\n [ 23.675800] Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000038: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI\n [ 23.819917] KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x00000000000001c0-0x00000000000001c7]\n [ 23.964025] CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper Not tainted 7.3.0-rc4-fe2ec83746e5-with-fixes-v2+ #195 PREEMPT(undef)\n [ 24.252248] RIP: 0010:__queue_work+0xab/0xf00\n [ 25.981629] Call Trace:\n [ 26.125727] <TASK>\n [ 26.413912] ? pagetable_free_kernel+0x20/0x120\n [ 26.990283] queue_work_on+0x97/0xf0\n [ 27.134382] __cpa_collapse_large_pages+0x501/0x6f0\n [ 27.566662] cpa_flush+0x394/0x620\n [ 27.998953] change_page_attr_set_clr+0x321/0x4a0\n [ 29.151729] set_memory_rox+0xa2/0xf0\n [ 29.584018] create_trampoline+0x431/0x6f0\n ...\n [ 44.343347] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!\n\nThe boot-time tracer is started from early_trace_init(), which runs\nbefore workqueue_init_early(). Making its trampoline read-only splits a\nlarge page, and CPA collapses it again right away. The split table has\nbeen a kernel page table since commit 9e4a3ec3411b\n(\"x86/mm/pat: Allocate split page tables as kernel page tables\"), so the\ncollapse frees it through pagetable_free_kernel(), which queues work on\nsystem_percpu_wq - still NULL at that point. That commit is correct in\nitself; it only lets CPA reach pagetable_free_kernel() before the\nworkqueue that function relies on exists.\n\nKeep putting the table on the list, but don't schedule the work while\nthe system is still booting. A core_initcall schedules it once to free\nwhatever was queued by then."
