[PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.14 29/64] zsmalloc: calling zs_map_object() from irq is a bug
From: alexander . levin

[ Upstream commit 1aedcafbf32b3f232c159b14cd0d423fcfe2b861 ]
Use BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) in zs_map_object(). This is not a new
BUG_ON(), it's always been there, but was recently changed to
VM_BUG_ON(). There are several problems there. First, we use use
per-CPU mappings both in zsmalloc and in zram, and interrupt may easily
corrupt those buffers. Second, and more importantly, we believe it's
possible to start leaking sensitive information. Consider the following
case:
-> process P
swap out
zram
per-cpu mapping CPU1
compress page A
-> IRQ
swap out
zram
per-cpu mapping CPU1
compress page B
write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool
iret
-> process P
write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool [*]
return
* so we store overwritten data that actually belongs to another
page (task) and potentially contains sensitive data. And when
process P will page fault it's going to read (swap in) that
other task's data.
