In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mempolicy: fix sleeping allocation in alloc_pages_bulk_weighted_interleave()
syzbot reported a sleeping function called from invalid context splat in
bucket_table_alloc().
When rhashtable_insert_slow() rehashes the table under rcu_read_lock(), it
calls bucket_table_alloc(..., GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_NOWARN). If the bucket
table allocation uses vmalloc, __vmalloc_node_range_noprof() invokes
vm_area_alloc_pages() -> alloc_pages_bulk_mempolicy_noprof() with the
passed GFP_ATOMIC flags.
If the current task has an MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE mempolicy,
alloc_pages_bulk_weighted_interleave() is called and currently hardcodes
GFP_KERNEL when allocating the temporary weights array, triggering a
might_alloc() splat in atomic/RCU contexts.
Pass the gfp flags (masked with GFP_RECLAIM_MASK to strip page-allocator
zone modifiers like __GFP_HIGHMEM) received by
alloc_pages_bulk_weighted_interleave() to kmalloc() instead of hardcoding
GFP_KERNEL. Since the weights buffer is immediately initialized in full,
kmalloc() is sufficient.
