commit e059853d14 upstream.
Currently the PG_mte_tagged page flag mostly means the page contains
valid tags and it should be set after the tags have been cleared or
restored. However, in mte_sync_tags() it is set before setting the tags
to avoid, in theory, a race with concurrent mprotect(PROT_MTE) for
shared pages. However, a concurrent mprotect(PROT_MTE) with a copy on
write in another thread can cause the new page to have stale tags.
Similarly, tag reading via ptrace() can read stale tags if the
PG_mte_tagged flag is set before actually clearing/restoring the tags.
Fix the PG_mte_tagged semantics so that it is only set after the tags
have been cleared or restored. This is safe for swap restoring into a
MAP_SHARED or CoW page since the core code takes the page lock. Add two
functions to test and set the PG_mte_tagged flag with acquire and
release semantics. The downside is that concurrent mprotect(PROT_MTE) on
a MAP_SHARED page may cause tag loss. This is already the case for KVM
guests if a VMM changes the page protection while the guest triggers a
user_mem_abort().

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.
