For trace buffer mappings, this\nresults in ring_buffer_unmap() being called multiple times while\nring_buffer_map() was only called once.\n\nThis causes ring_buffer_unmap() to return -ENODEV on subsequent calls\nbecause user_mapped is already 0, triggering a WARN_ON.\n\nTrace buffer mappings cannot support partial mappings because the ring\nbuffer structure requires the complete buffer including the meta page.\n\nFix this by adding a may_split callback that returns -EINVAL to prevent\nVMA splits entirely.","published":"2025-12-22T17:16:01.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-19T21:10:00.000Z","status":"Deferred","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":null,"cwe":[],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00184,"percentile":0.07886,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"unknown","text":"Not yet scored.
