arch/x86/mm/numa.c: fix array index overflow when synchronizing nid to memblock.reserved.
The following path will cause array out of bound. memblock_add_region() will always set nid in memblock.reserved to MAX_NUMNODES. In numa_register_memblks(), after we set all nid to correct valus in memblock.reserved, we called setup_node_data(), and used memblock_alloc_nid() to allocate memory, with nid set to MAX_NUMNODES. The nodemask_t type can be seen as a bit array. And the index is 0 ~ MAX_NUMNODES-1. After that, when we call node_set() in numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug(), the nodemask_t got an index of value MAX_NUMNODES, which is out of [0 ~ MAX_NUMNODES-1]. See below: numa_init() |---> numa_register_memblks() | |---> memblock_set_node(memory) set correct nid in memblock.memory | |---> memblock_set_node(reserved) set correct nid in memblock.reserved | |...... | |---> setup_node_data() | |---> memblock_alloc_nid() here, nid is set to MAX_NUMNODES (1024) |...... |---> numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug() |---> node_set() here, we have an index 1024, and overflowed This patch moves nid setting to numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug() to fix this problem.
