Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
mm: vmalloc: check if a hash-index is in cpu_possible_mask<br />
<br />
The problem is that there are systems where cpu_possible_mask has gaps<br />
between set CPUs, for example SPARC. In this scenario addr_to_vb_xa()<br />
hash function can return an index which accesses to not-possible and not<br />
setup CPU area using per_cpu() macro. This results in an oops on SPARC.<br />
<br />
A per-cpu vmap_block_queue is also used as hash table, incorrectly<br />
assuming the cpu_possible_mask has no gaps. Fix it by adjusting an index<br />
to a next possible CPU.
