[PATCH v2 1/7] mm: fix off-by-one error in VMA count limit checks

by Kalesh Singh

The VMA count limit check in do_mmap() and do_brk_flags() uses a strict inequality (>), which allows a process's VMA count to exceed the configured sysctl_max_map_count limit by one. A process with mm->map_count == sysctl_max_map_count will incorrectly pass this check and then exceed the limit upon allocation of a new VMA when its map_count is incremented. Other VMA allocation paths, such as split_vma(), already use the correct, inclusive (>=) comparison. Fix this bug by changing the comparison to be inclusive in do_mmap() and do_brk_flags(), bringing them in line with the correct behavior of other allocation paths.

[PATCH] drm/amdgpu/atom: Check kcalloc() for WS buffer in amdgpu_atom_execute_table_locked()

by Guangshuo Li

kcalloc() may fail. When WS is non-zero and allocation fails, ectx.ws remains NULL while ectx.ws_size is set, leading to a potential NULL pointer dereference in atom_get_src_int() when accessing WS entries.

[PATCH net v5 0/4] net: netpoll: fix memory leak and add comprehensive selftests

by Breno Leitao

Fix a memory leak in netpoll and introduce netconsole selftests that expose the issue when running with kmemleak detection enabled. This patchset includes a selftest for netpoll with multiple concurrent users (netconsole + bonding), which simulates the scenario from test[1] that originally demonstrated the issue allegedly fixed by commit efa95b01da18 ("netpoll: fix use after free") - a commit that is now being reverted. Sending this to "net" branch because this is a fix, and the selftest might help with the backports validation.

[PATCH v2 1/3] drm/xe: Don't copy pinned kernel bos twice on suspend

by Thomas Hellström

We were copying the bo content the bos on the list "xe->pinned.late.kernel_bo_present" twice on suspend. Presumingly the intent is to copy the pinned external bos on the first pass. This is harmless since we (currently) should have no pinned external bos needing copy since a) exernal system bos don't have compressed content, b) We do not (yet) allow pinning of VRAM bos. Still, fix this up so that we copy pinned external bos on the first pass. We're about to allow bos pinned in VRAM.
