Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

dma-mapping: benchmark: handle NUMA_NO_NODE correctly

cpumask_of_node() can be called for NUMA_NO_NODE inside do_map_benchmark()
resulting in the following sanitizer report:

UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in ./arch/x86/include/asm/topology.h:72:28
index -1 is out of range for type 'cpumask [64][1]'
CPU: 1 PID: 990 Comm: dma_map_benchma Not tainted 6.9.0-rc6 #29
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)
Call Trace:

dump_stack_lvl (lib/dump_stack.c:117)
ubsan_epilogue (lib/ubsan.c:232)
__ubsan_handle_out_of_bounds (lib/ubsan.c:429)

do_syscall_64 (arch/x86/entry/common.c:83)
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:130)

Use cpumask_of_node() in place when binding a kernel thread to a cpuset
of a particular node.

Note that the provided node id is checked inside map_benchmark_ioctl().
It's just a NUMA_NO_NODE case which is not handled properly later.
