arm64: mte: Do not allow PROT_MTE on MAP_HUGETLB user mappings
PROT_MTE (memory tagging extensions) is not supported on all user mmap() types for various reasons (memory attributes, backing storage, CoW handling). The arm64 arch_validate_flags() function checks whether the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag has been set for a vma during mmap(), usually by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits(). Linux prior to 6.13 does not support PROT_MTE hugetlb mappings. This was added by commit 25c17c4b55de ("hugetlb: arm64: add mte support"). However, earlier kernels inadvertently set VM_MTE_ALLOWED on (MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB) mappings by only checking for MAP_ANONYMOUS. Explicitly check MAP_HUGETLB in arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and avoid setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED for such mappings. Fixes: 9f3419315f3c ("arm64: mte: Add PROT_MTE support to mmap() and mprotect()") Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 5.10.x-6.12.x Reported-by: Naresh Kamboju <naresh.kamboju@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
