Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tick/nohz: unexport init-annotated ticknohzfullsetup() EXPORTSYMBOL and _init is a bad combination because the .init.text section is freed up after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot use symbols annotated _init. The access to a freed symbol may end up with kernel panic. modpost used to detect it, but it had been broken for a decade. Commit 28438794aba4 ("modpost: fix section mismatch check for exported init/exit sections") fixed it so modpost started to warn it again, then this showed up: MODPOST vmlinux.symvers WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(ksymtabgpl+ticknohzfullsetup+0x0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable _ksymtabticknohzfullsetup to the function .init.text:ticknohzfullsetup() The symbol ticknohzfullsetup is exported and annotated _init Fix this by removing the _init annotation of ticknohzfullsetup or drop the export. Drop the export because ticknohzfullsetup() is only called from the built-in code in kernel/sched/isolation.c.
