Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] ArmPkg/ArmMmuLib AARCH64: limit recursion when freeing page tables
Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2020 16:29:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200325152940.1492-2-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200325152940.1492-1-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>

FreePageTablesRecursive () traverses the page table tree depth first
to free all pages that it finds, without taking into account the
level at which it is operating.

Since TT_TYPE_TABLE_ENTRY aliases TT_TYPE_BLOCK_ENTRY_LEVEL3, we cannot
distinguish table entries from block entries unless we take the level
into account, and so we may be dereferencing garbage if we happen to
try and free a hierarchy of page tables that has level 3 pages in it.

Let's fix this by passing the level into FreePageTablesRecursive (),
and limit the recursion to levels < 3.
