>From ff82bedd3e12f0d3353282054ae48c3bd8c72012 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> Date: Wed, 9 May 2018 12:12:39 +0900 Subject: [PATCH v3] x86/kexec: avoid double free_page() upon do_kexec_load() failure. syzbot is reporting crashes after memory allocation failure inside do_kexec_load() [1]. This is because free_transition_pgtable() is called by both init_transition_pgtable() and machine_kexec_cleanup() when memory allocation failed inside init_transition_pgtable(). Regarding 32bit code, machine_kexec_free_page_tables() is called by both machine_kexec_alloc_page_tables() and machine_kexec_cleanup() when memory allocation failed inside machine_kexec_alloc_page_tables(). Fix this by leaving the error handling to machine_kexec_cleanup() (and optionally setting NULL after free_page()).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
