ARM: 9485/1: mm: acquire mmap write lock around show_pte() for user faultsgrafted
When CONFIG_DEBUG_USER=y, and cmdline "user_debug=31" is set, a user fault may trigger show_pte() without any lock. If another thread in the same process concurrently calls munmap(), the page table pages may be freed while show_pte() is still traversing them, causing a use-after-free in show_pte(). If CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y, this may cause a kernel panic if the pages table of PMD are freed when show_pte() is running. Acquire mmap_write_lock() around show_pte() for user faults to fix the contention. For user faults, additionally restrict that show_pte() is called only when the addr is a user-space address (addr < TASK_SIZE). This is because the lock of tsk->mm only protects the virtual memory of user address space, furthermore, dumping the page tables of a kernel-space address for user faults is unnecessary and may have security implications. Keep everything unchanged for kernel faults, because the kernel is already in the "oops" state, acquiring a lock may risk a deadlock.

+ AMDGPU RAS Support
+====================
+
+The AMDGPU RAS interfaces are exposed via sysfs (for informational queries) and
+debugfs (for error injection).

+
+Sample Code
+===========
+Sample code for testing error injection can be found here:
+https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/tree/tests/amdgpu/ras_tests.c
+
+This is part of the libdrm amdgpu unit tests which cover several areas of the GPU.
+There are four sets of tests:
+
+RAS Basic Test
+
+The test verifies the RAS feature enabled status and makes sure the necessary sysfs and debugfs files
+are present.
+
+RAS Query Test
+
+This test checks the RAS availability and enablement status for each supported IP block as well as
+the error counts.
+
+RAS Inject Test
+
+This test injects errors for each IP.
+
+RAS Disable Test
+
+This test tests disabling of RAS features for each IP block.
