KVM: arm/arm64: Handle possible NULL stage2 pud when ageing pages
Under memory pressure, we start ageing pages, which amounts to parsing the page tables. Since we don't want to allocate any extra level, we pass NULL for our private allocation cache. Which means that stage2_get_pud() is allowed to fail. This results in the following splat: [ 1520.409577] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000008 [ 1520.417741] pgd = ffff810f52fef000 [ 1520.421201] [00000008] *pgd=0000010f636c5003, *pud=0000010f56f48003, *pmd=0000000000000000 [ 1520.429546] Internal error: Oops: 96000006 [#1] PREEMPT SMP [ 1520.435156] Modules linked in: [ 1520.438246] CPU: 15 PID: 53550 Comm: qemu-system-aar Tainted: G W 4.12.0-rc4-00027-g1885c397eaec #7205 [ 1520.448705] Hardware name: FOXCONN R2-1221R-A4/C2U4N_MB, BIOS G31FB12A 10/26/2016 [ 1520.463726] task: ffff800ac5fb4e00 task.stack: ffff800ce04e0000 [ 1520.469666] PC is at stage2_get_pmd+0x34/0x110 [ 1520.474119] LR is at kvm_age_hva_handler+0x44/0xf0 [ 1520.478917] pc : [<ffff0000080b137c>] lr : [<ffff0000080b149c>] pstate: 40000145 [ 1520.486325] sp : ffff800ce04e33d0 [ 1520.489644] x29: ffff800ce04e33d0 x28: 0000000ffff40064 [ 1520.494967] x27: 0000ffff27e00000 x26: 0000000000000000 [ 1520.500289] x25: ffff81051ba65008 x24: 0000ffff40065000 [ 1520.505618] x23: 0000ffff40064000 x22: 0000000000000000 [ 1520.510947] x21: ffff810f52b20000 x20: 0000000000000000 [ 1520.516274] x19: 0000000058264000 x18: 0000000000000000 [ 1520.521603] x17: 0000ffffa6fe7438 x16: ffff000008278b70 [ 1520.526940] x15: 000028ccd8000000 x14: 0000000000000008 [ 1520.532264] x13: ffff7e0018298000 x12: 0000000000000002 [ 1520.537582] x11: ffff000009241b93 x10: 0000000000000940 [ 1520.542908] x9 : ffff0000092ef800 x8 : 0000000000000200 [ 1520.548229] x7 : ffff800ce04e36a8 x6 : 0000000000000000 [ 1520.553552] x5 : 0000000000000001 x4 : 0000000000000000 [ 1520.558873] x3 : 0000000000000000 x2 : 0000000000000008 [ 1520.571696] x1 : ffff000008fd5000 x0 : ffff0000080b149c [ 1520.577039] Process qemu-system-aar (pid: 53550, stack limit = 0xffff800ce04e0000) [...] [ 1521.510735] [<ffff0000080b137c>] stage2_get_pmd+0x34/0x110 [ 1521.516221] [<ffff0000080b149c>] kvm_age_hva_handler+0x44/0xf0 [ 1521.522054] [<ffff0000080b0610>] handle_hva_to_gpa+0xb8/0xe8 [ 1521.527716] [<ffff0000080b3434>] kvm_age_hva+0x44/0xf0 [ 1521.532854] [<ffff0000080a58b0>] kvm_mmu_notifier_clear_flush_young+0x70/0xc0 [ 1521.539992] [<ffff000008238378>] __mmu_notifier_clear_flush_young+0x88/0xd0 [ 1521.546958] [<ffff00000821eca0>] page_referenced_one+0xf0/0x188 [ 1521.552881] [<ffff00000821f36c>] rmap_walk_anon+0xec/0x250 [ 1521.558370] [<ffff000008220f78>] rmap_walk+0x78/0xa0 [ 1521.563337] [<ffff000008221104>] page_referenced+0x164/0x180 [ 1521.569002] [<ffff0000081f1af0>] shrink_active_list+0x178/0x3b8 [ 1521.574922] [<ffff0000081f2058>] shrink_node_memcg+0x328/0x600 [ 1521.580758] [<ffff0000081f23f4>] shrink_node+0xc4/0x328 [ 1521.585986] [<ffff0000081f2718>] do_try_to_free_pages+0xc0/0x340 [ 1521.592000] [<ffff0000081f2a64>] try_to_free_pages+0xcc/0x240 [...] The trivial fix is to handle this NULL pud value early, rather than dereferencing it blindly.
