CVE-2024-57917
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
topology: Keep the cpumask unchanged when printing cpumap
During fuzz testing, the following warning was discovered:
different return values (15 and 11) from vsnprintf("%*pbl ", ...)
The call trace shows that kvasprintf() reported this warning during the printing of core_siblings_list. kvasprintf() has several steps:
(1) First, calculate the length of the resulting formatted string.
(2) Allocate a buffer based on the returned length.
(3) Then, perform the actual string formatting.
If the core_cpumask is modified between steps (1) and (3), the lengths obtained in these two steps may not match. Indeed our test includes cpu hotplugging, which should modify core_cpumask while printing.

To fix this issue, cache the cpumask into a temporary variable before calling cpumap_print_{list, cpumask}_to_buf(), to keep it unchanged during the printing process.
