According to Section 6.2.14 from ACPI spec 6.3 [1], the setting of proximity domain is optional, as below: This optional object is used to describe proximity domain associations within a machine. _PXM evaluates to an integer that identifies a device as belonging to a Proximity Domain defined in the System Resource Affinity Table (SRAT).That's just words.. what does it actually mean?
It means the dev_to_node(dev) may return -1 if the bios does not implement the proximity domain feature, user may use that value to call cpumask_of_node and cpumask_of_node does not protect itself from node id being -1, which causes out of bound access.

This patch checks node id with the below case before returning node_to_cpumask_map[node]: 1. if node_id >= nr_node_ids, return cpu_none_mask 2. if node_id < 0, return cpu_online_mask 3. if node_to_cpumask_map[node_id] is NULL, return cpu_online_mask [1] https://uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6_3_final_Jan30.pdf Signed-off-by: Yunsheng Lin <redacted> --- arch/x86/include/asm/topology.h | 6 ++++++ arch/x86/mm/numa.c | 2 +- 2 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)diff --git a/arch/x86/include/asm/topology.h b/arch/x86/include/asm/topology.h index 4b14d23..f36e9c8 100644 --- a/arch/x86/include/asm/topology.h +++ b/arch/x86/include/asm/topology.h@@ -69,6 +69,12 @@ extern const struct cpumask *cpumask_of_node(int node); /* Returns a pointer to the cpumask of CPUs on Node 'node'. */ static inline const struct cpumask *cpumask_of_node(int node) { + if (node >= nr_node_ids) + return cpu_none_mask; + + if (node < 0 || !node_to_cpumask_map[node]) + return cpu_online_mask; + return node_to_cpumask_map[node]; } #endifI _reallly_ hate this. Users are expected to use valid numa ids. Now we're adding all this checking to all users. Why do we want to do that?
As above, the dev_to_node(dev) may return -1.
Using '(unsigned)node >= nr_nods_ids' is an error.
'node >= nr_node_ids' can be dropped if all user is expected to not call cpumask_of_node with node id greater or equal to nr_nods_ids. From what I can see, the problem can be fixed in three place: 1. Make user dev_to_node return a valid node id even when proximity domain is not set by bios(or node id set by buggy bios is not valid), which may need info from the numa system to make sure it will return a valid node. 2. User that call cpumask_of_node should ensure the node id is valid before calling cpumask_of_node, and user also need some info to make ensure node id is valid. 3. Make sure cpumask_of_node deal with invalid node id as this patchset. Which one do you prefer to make sure node id is valid, or do you have any better idea? Any detail advice and suggestion will be very helpful, thanks.
