    uprobes: Fix the usage of install_special_mapping() · f58bea2f
    Oleg Nesterov authored
    install_special_mapping(pages) expects that "pages" is the zero-
    terminated array while xol_add_vma() passes &area->page, this
    means that special_mapping_fault() can wrongly use the next
    member in xol_area (vaddr) as "struct page *".
    
    Fortunately, this area is not expandable so pgoff != 0 isn't
    possible (modulo bugs in special_mapping_vmops), but still this
    does not look good.
