Linus Torvalds 379e66711b memblock: reset memblock.reserved to system init state to prevent UAF
A call to memblock_free() or memblock_phys_free() issued after memblock
 data is discarded will result in use after free in
 memblock_isolate_range().
 
 When CONFIG_KASAN is enabled, this will cause a panic early in boot.
 Without CONFIG_KASAN, there is a chance that memblock_isolate_range() might
 scribble on memory that is now in use by somebody else.
 
 Avoid those issues by making sure that memblock_discard points
 memblock.reserved.regions back at the static buffer.
 
 If memblock_free() or memblock_phys_free() is called after memblock memory
 is discarded, that will print a warning in memblock_remove_region().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
