Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: rpm-pkg: simplify installkernel %post
The new installkernel application that is now included in systemd-udev
package allows installation although destination files are already present
in the boot directory of the kernel package, but is failing with the
implemented workaround for the old installkernel application from grubby
package.
For the new installkernel application, as Davide says:
<<The %post currently does a shuffling dance before calling installkernel.
This isn't actually necessary afaict, and the current implementation
ends up triggering downstream issues such as
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/29568
This commit simplifies the logic to remove the shuffling. For reference,
the original logic was added in commit 3c9c7a14b627("rpm-pkg: add %post
section to create initramfs and grub hooks").>>
But we need to keep the old behavior as well, because the old installkernel
application from grubby package, does not allow this simplification and
we need to be backward compatible to avoid issues with the different
packages.
Mimic Fedora shipping process and store vmlinuz, config amd System.map
in the module directory instead of the boot directory. In this way, we will
avoid the commented problem for all the cases, because the new destination
files are not going to exist in the boot directory of the kernel package.
Replace installkernel tool with kernel-install tool, because the latter is
more complete.
Besides, after installkernel tool execution, check to complete if the
correct package files vmlinuz, System.map and config files are present
in /boot directory, and if necessary, copy manually for install operation.
In this way, take into account if files were not previously copied from
/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/* scripts and if the suitable files for the
requested package are present (it could be others if the rpm files were
replace with a new pacakge with the same release and a different build).
Tested with Fedora 38, Fedora 39, RHEL 9, Oracle Linux 9.3,
openSUSE Tumbleweed and openMandrive ROME, using dnf/zypper and rpm tools.

Subject: [PATCH] mm/huge_memory: fix dereferencing invalid pmd migration entry
When migrating a THP, concurrent access to the PMD migration entry during
a deferred split scan can lead to an invalid address access, as
illustrated below. To prevent this invalid access, it is necessary to
check the PMD migration entry and return early. In this context, there is
no need to use pmd_to_swp_entry and pfn_swap_entry_to_page to verify the
equality of the target folio. Since the PMD migration entry is locked, it
cannot be served as the target.
Mailing list discussion and explanation from Hugh Dickins: "An anon_vma
lookup points to a location which may contain the folio of interest, but
might instead contain another folio: and weeding out those other folios is
precisely what the "folio != pmd_folio((*pmd)" check (and the "risk of
replacing the wrong folio" comment a few lines above it) is for."

Subject: [PATCH] mm/huge_memory: fix dereferencing invalid pmd migration entry
When migrating a THP, concurrent access to the PMD migration entry during
a deferred split scan can lead to an invalid address access, as
illustrated below. To prevent this invalid access, it is necessary to
check the PMD migration entry and return early. In this context, there is
no need to use pmd_to_swp_entry and pfn_swap_entry_to_page to verify the
equality of the target folio. Since the PMD migration entry is locked, it
cannot be served as the target.
Mailing list discussion and explanation from Hugh Dickins: "An anon_vma
lookup points to a location which may contain the folio of interest, but
might instead contain another folio: and weeding out those other folios is
precisely what the "folio != pmd_folio((*pmd)" check (and the "risk of
replacing the wrong folio" comment a few lines above it) is for."
