From 77677cdbc2aa4b5d5d839562793d3d126201d18d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shuai Xue Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2022 14:49:35 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm,hwpoison: check mm when killing accessing process The GHES code calls memory_failure_queue() from IRQ context to queue work into workqueue and schedule it on the current CPU. Then the work is processed in memory_failure_work_func() by kworker and calls memory_failure(). When a page is already poisoned, commit a3f5d80ea401 ("mm,hwpoison: send SIGBUS with error virutal address") make memory_failure() call kill_accessing_process() that: - holds mmap locking of current->mm - does pagetable walk to find the error virtual address - and sends SIGBUS to the current process with error info. However, the mm of kworker is not valid, resulting in a null-pointer dereference. So check mm when killing the accessing process.
