The current calculation of the 'next' virtual address in the page table initialization functions in arch/x86/mm/ident_map.c doesn't protect against wrapping to zero. This is a theoretical issue that cannot happen currently, the problematic case is possible only if the user sets a high enough x86_mapping_info::offset value - which no current code in the upstream kernel does. ( The wrapping to zero only occurs if the top PGD entry is accessed. There are no such users upstream. Only hibernate_64.c uses x86_mapping_info::offset, and it operates on the direct mapping range, which is not the top PGD entry. ) Should such an overflow happen, it can result in page table corruption and a hang. To future-proof this code, replace the manual 'next' calculation with p?d_addr_end() which handles wrapping correctly.

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 reStructuredText 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.
