Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
arm64: hibernate: Fix level3 translation fault in swsusp_save()<br />
<br />
On arm64 machines, swsusp_save() faults if it attempts to access<br />
MEMBLOCK_NOMAP memory ranges. This can be reproduced in QEMU using UEFI<br />
when booting with rodata=off debug_pagealloc=off and CONFIG_KFENCE=n:<br />

<br />
The reason is swsusp_save() -> copy_data_pages() -> page_is_saveable()<br />
-> kernel_page_present() assuming that a page is always present when<br />
can_set_direct_map() is false (all of rodata_full,<br />
debug_pagealloc_enabled() and arm64_kfence_can_set_direct_map() false),<br />
irrespective of the MEMBLOCK_NOMAP ranges. Such MEMBLOCK_NOMAP regions<br />
should not be saved during hibernation.<br />
<br />
This problem was introduced by changes to the pfn_valid() logic in<br />
commit a7d9f306ba70 ("arm64: drop pfn_valid_within() and simplify<br />
pfn_valid()").<br />
<br />
Similar to other architectures, drop the !can_set_direct_map() check in<br />
kernel_page_present() so that page_is_savable() skips such pages.<br />
<br />
