commitd082d48737upstream. KPTI keeps around two PGDs: one for userspace and another for the kernel. Among other things, set_pgd() contains infrastructure to ensure that updates to the kernel PGD are reflected in the user PGD as well. One side-effect of this is that set_pgd() expects to be passed whole pages. Unfortunately, init_trampoline_kaslr() passes in a single entry: 'trampoline_pgd_entry'. When KPTI is on, set_pgd() will update 'trampoline_pgd_entry' (an 8-Byte globally stored [.bss] variable) and will then proceed to replicate that value into the non-existent neighboring user page (located +4k away), leading to the corruption of other global [.bss] stored variables. Fix it by directly assigning 'trampoline_pgd_entry' and avoiding set_pgd().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
