[PATCH v3 2/6] mm/migrate_device: Do not write past the end of the src_pfns array

From: Matthew Brost

Date: Wed Aug 05 2026 - 19:11:37 EST


migrate_device_range() and migrate_device_pfns() zero the tail entries
of a large folio without checking them against @npages:

for (j = 1; j < nr; j++)
src_pfns[i+j] = 0;

@nr comes from the folio, not from the array, so a folio that extends
past the end of the range being migrated writes beyond src_pfns[].
Callers size that array for @npages entries, so this corrupts whatever
follows it.

Bound the loop by @npages. The subsequent "i += j - 1" still terminates
the outer loop correctly: on a bounded exit j is @npages - i, leaving i
at @npages after the increment.
