From df4e817b710809425d899340dbfa8504a3ca4ba5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pasha Tatashin Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2022 14:06:37 -0800 Subject: mm: page table check Check user page table entries at the time they are added and removed. Allows to synchronously catch memory corruption issues related to double mapping. When a pte for an anonymous page is added into page table, we verify that this pte does not already point to a file backed page, and vice versa if this is a file backed page that is being added we verify that this page does not have an anonymous mapping We also enforce that read-only sharing for anonymous pages is allowed (i.e. cow after fork). All other sharing must be for file pages. Page table check allows to protect and debug cases where "struct page" metadata became corrupted for some reason. For example, when refcnt or mapcount become invalid.
