commit17743798d8upstream. There is a race between the assignment of `table->data` and write value to the pointer of `table->data` in the __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax() on the other thread. CPU0: CPU1: proc_sys_write hugetlb_sysctl_handler proc_sys_call_handler hugetlb_sysctl_handler_common hugetlb_sysctl_handler table->data = &tmp; hugetlb_sysctl_handler_common table->data = &tmp; proc_doulongvec_minmax do_proc_doulongvec_minmax sysctl_head_finish __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax unuse_table i = table->data; *i = val; // corrupt CPU1's stack Fix this by duplicating the `table`, and only update the duplicate of it. And introduce a helper of proc_hugetlb_doulongvec_minmax() to simplify the code. The following oops was seen: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 #PF: supervisor instruction fetch in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0010) - not-present page Code: Bad RIP value. ...

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.
