Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] maple_tree: Fix mas_prev() state regression.
Date: Fri, 22 Sep 2023 11:38:51 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230922153853.767603-1-Liam.Howlett@oracle.com> (raw)
Pedro Falcato retported an mprotect regression [1] which was bisected back
to the iterator changes for maple tree. Root cause analysis showed the
mas_prev() running off the end of the VMA space (previous from 0)
followed by mas_find(), would skip the first value.
This patch set introduces maple state underflow/overflow so the sequence
of calls on the maple state will return what the user expects.
Users who encounter this bug may see mprotect(), userfaultfd_register(),
and mlock() fail on VMAs mapped with address 0.
