From b6ea95a34cbd014ab6ade4248107b86b0aaf2d6c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Gordeev agordeev@linux.ibm.com Date: Thu, 15 May 2025 15:55:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] kasan: avoid sleepable page allocation from atomic context
apply_to_pte_range() enters the lazy MMU mode and then invokes kasan_populate_vmalloc_pte() callback on each page table walk iteration. However, the callback can go into sleep when trying to allocate a single page, e.g. if an architecutre disables preemption on lazy MMU mode enter.
On s390 if make arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() -> preempt_enable() and arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode() -> preempt_disable(), such crash occurs:

Instead of allocating single pages per-PTE, bulk-allocate the shadow memory prior to applying kasan_populate_vmalloc_pte() callback on a page range.
