  "summary": "arm64: tlb: Flush walk cache when unsharing PMD tables",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\narm64: tlb: Flush walk cache when unsharing PMD tables\n\nWhen huge_pmd_unshare() is called to unshare a PMD table, the\ntlb_unshare_pmd_ptdesc() function sets tlb->unshared_tables=true\nbut the aarch64 tlb_flush() only checked tlb->freed_tables to\ndetermine whether to use TLBF_NONE (vae1is, invalidates walk\ncache) or TLBF_NOWALKCACHE (vale1is, leaf-only).\n\nThis caused the stale PMD page table entry to remain in the walk cache\nafter unshare, potentially leading to incorrect page table walks.\n\nFix by including unshared_tables in the check, so that when\nunsharing tables, TLBF_NONE is used and the walk cache is properly\ninvalidated.\n\nHere is the detailed distinction between vae1is and vale1is:\n\n| Instruction Combination  | Actual Invalidation Scope                         |\n| ------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------|\n| `VAE1IS`  + TTL=`0`      | All entries at all levels (full invalidation)     |\n| `VAE1IS`  + TTL=`2` (L2) | Non-leaf at Level 0/1 + leaf at Level 2           |\n| `VALE1IS` + TTL=`0`      | Leaf entries at all levels (non-leaf not cleared) |\n| `VALE1IS` + TTL=`2` (L2) | Leaf entry at Level 2 only                        |",
