Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-03-03 00:30 – Updated: 2025-01-13 21:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: Set all reserved memblocks on Node#0 at initialization
After commit 61167ad5fecdea ("mm: pass nid to reserve_bootmem_region()") we get a panic if DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled:

The reason is early memblock_reserve() in memblock_init() set node id to MAX_NUMNODES, making NODE_DATA(nid) a NULL dereference in the call chain reserve_bootmem_region() -> init_reserved_page(). After memblock_init(), those late calls of memblock_reserve() operate on subregions of memblock .memory regions. As a result, these reserved regions will be set to the correct node at the first iteration of memmap_init_reserved_pages().
So set all reserved memblocks on Node#0 at initialization can avoid this panic.
