an interrupt, and the NET_TX softirq then gets scheduled, this will take
the netif_tx_lock() a second time and deadlock the kernel.
To solve this, use netif_tx_lock_bh(), which blocks softirqs from
running. |

Bluetooth: Fix possible deadlock in rfcomm_sk_state_change
syzbot reports a possible deadlock in rfcomm_sk_state_change [1].
While rfcomm_sock_connect acquires the sk lock and waits for
the rfcomm lock, rfcomm_sock_release could have the rfcomm
lock and hit a deadlock for acquiring the sk lock.
Here's a simplified flow:
rfcomm_sock_connect:
lock_sock(sk)
rfcomm_dlc_open:
rfcomm_lock()
rfcomm_sock_release:
rfcomm_sock_shutdown:
rfcomm_lock()
__rfcomm_dlc_close:
rfcomm_k_state_change:
lock_sock(sk)
This patch drops the sk lock before calling rfcomm_dlc_open to
avoid the possible deadlock and holds sk's reference count to
prevent use-after-free after rfcomm_dlc_open completes. |

syzbot is reporting lockdep warning at f2fs_handle_error() [1], for

For safe locking in error handling, move initialization of locks (and
obvious structures) in f2fs_fill_super() to immediately after memory
allocation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: timer: Don't take register_mutex with copy_from/to_user()
The infamous mmap_lock taken in copy_from/to_user() can be often
problematic when it's called inside another mutex, as they might lead
to deadlocks.
In the case of ALSA timer code, the bad pattern is with
guard(mutex)(®ister_mutex) that covers copy_from/to_user() -- which
was mistakenly introduced at converting to guard(), and it had been
carefully worked around in the past.
This patch fixes those pieces simply by moving copy_from/to_user() out
of the register mutex lock again. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix deadlock in nilfs_count_free_blocks()
A semaphore deadlock can occur if nilfs_get_block() detects metadata
corruption while locating data blocks and a superblock writeback occurs at
the same time:
task 1 task 2
------ ------
* A file operation *
nilfs_truncate()
nilfs_get_block()
down_read(rwsem A) <--
nilfs_bmap_lookup_contig()
... generic_shutdown_super()
nilfs_put_super()
* Prepare to write superblock *
down_write(rwsem B) <--
nilfs_cleanup_super()
* Detect b-tree corruption * nilfs_set_log_cursor()
nilfs_bmap_convert_error() nilfs_count_free_blocks()
__nilfs_error() down_read(rwsem A) <--
nilfs_set_error()
down_write(rwsem B) <--
*** DEADLOCK ***
Here, nilfs_get_block() readlocks rwsem A (= NILFS_MDT(dat_inode)->mi_sem)
and then calls nilfs_bmap_lookup_contig(), but if it fails due to metadata
corruption, __nilfs_error() is called from nilfs_bmap_convert_error()
inside the lock section.
Since __nilfs_error() calls nilfs_set_error() unless the filesystem is
read-only and nilfs_set_error() attempts to writelock rwsem B (=
nilfs->ns_sem) to write back superblock exclusively, hierarchical lock
acquisition occurs in the order rwsem A -> rwsem B.
Now, if another task starts updating the superblock, it may writelock
rwsem B during the lock sequence above, and can deadlock trying to
readlock rwsem A in nilfs_count_free_blocks().
However, there is actually no need to take rwsem A in
nilfs_count_free_blocks() because it, within the lock section, only reads
a single integer data on a shared struct with
nilfs_sufile_get_ncleansegs(). This has been the case after commit
aa474a220180 ("nilfs2: add local variable to cache the number of clean
segments"), that is, even before this bug was introduced.
So, this resolves the deadlock problem by just not taking the semaphore in
nilfs_count_free_blocks(). |
| The strcmp implementation optimized for the Power10 processor in the GNU C Library version 2.39 and later writes to vector registers v20 to v31 without saving contents from the caller (those registers are defined as non-volatile registers by the powerpc64le ABI), resulting in overwriting of its contents and potentially altering control flow of the caller, or leaking the input strings to the function to other parts of the program. |

net: hns3: fix kernel crash when devlink reload during pf initialization
The devlink reload process will access the hardware resources,
but the register operation is done before the hardware is initialized.
So, processing the devlink reload during initialization may lead to kernel
crash. This patch fixes this by taking devl_lock during initialization. |

mm: khugepaged: skip huge page collapse for special files
The read-only THP for filesystems will collapse THP for files opened
readonly and mapped with VM_EXEC. The intended usecase is to avoid TLB
misses for large text segments. But it doesn't restrict the file types
so a THP could be collapsed for a non-regular file, for example, block
device, if it is opened readonly and mapped with EXEC permission. This
may cause bugs, like [1] and [2].
This is definitely not the intended usecase, so just collapse THP for
regular files in order to close the attack surface.

LoongArch: Define the __io_aw() hook as mmiowb()
Commit fb24ea52f78e0d595852e ("drivers: Remove explicit invocations of
mmiowb()") remove all mmiowb() in drivers, but it says:
"NOTE: mmiowb() has only ever guaranteed ordering in conjunction with
spin_unlock(). However, pairing each mmiowb() removal in this patch with
the corresponding call to spin_unlock() is not at all trivial, so there
is a small chance that this change may regress any drivers incorrectly
relying on mmiowb() to order MMIO writes between CPUs using lock-free
synchronisation."
The mmio in radeon_ring_commit() is protected by a mutex rather than a
spinlock, but in the mutex fastpath it behaves similar to spinlock. We
can add mmiowb() calls in the radeon driver but the maintainer says he
doesn't like such a workaround, and radeon is not the only example of
mutex protected mmio.
So we should extend the mmiowb tracking system from spinlock to mutex,
and maybe other locking primitives. This is not easy and error prone, so
we solve it in the architectural code, by simply defining the __io_aw()
hook as mmiowb(). And we no longer need to override queued_spin_unlock()
so use the generic definition.
Without this, we get such an error when run 'glxgears' on weak ordering
architectures such as LoongArch:

ext4: fix racy may inline data check in dio write
syzbot reports that the following warning from ext4_iomap_begin()
triggers as of the commit referenced below:
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(ext4_has_inline_data(inode)))
return -ERANGE;
This occurs during a dio write, which is never expected to encounter
an inode with inline data. To enforce this behavior,
ext4_dio_write_iter() checks the current inline state of the inode
and clears the MAY_INLINE_DATA state flag to either fall back to
buffered writes, or enforce that any other writers in progress on
the inode are not allowed to create inline data.
The problem is that the check for existing inline data and the state
flag can span a lock cycle. For example, if the ilock is originally
locked shared and subsequently upgraded to exclusive, another writer
may have reacquired the lock and created inline data before the dio
write task acquires the lock and proceeds.
The commit referenced below loosens the lock requirements to allow
some forms of unaligned dio writes to occur under shared lock, but
AFAICT the inline data check was technically already racy for any
dio write that would have involved a lock cycle. Regardless, lift
clearing of the state bit to the same lock critical section that
checks for preexisting inline data on the inode to close the race. |

</TASK>
The current implementation uses a spinlock to protect event log workqueue
and will lead to the Call Trace due to potential task rescheduling.
To address the locking issue, convert the spinlock to mutex, allowing
the drain_workqueue() to be called in a safe mutex-locked context.
This change ensures proper synchronization when accessing the event log
workqueue, preventing potential Call Trace and improving the overall
robustness of the code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Avoid crash from unnecessary IDA free
In the remove path, there is an attempt to free the aux_idx IDA whether
it was allocated or not. This can potentially cause a crash when
unloading the driver on systems that do not initialize support for RDMA.
But, this free cannot be gated by the status bit for RDMA, since it is
allocated if the driver detects support for RDMA at probe time, but the
driver can enter into a state where RDMA is not supported after the IDA
has been allocated at probe time and this would lead to a memory leak.
Initialize aux_idx to an invalid value and check for a valid value when
unloading to determine if an IDA free is necessary. |

i40e: Fix freeing of uninitialized misc IRQ vector

The problem is that at that point misc IRQ vectors
were not allocated yet and we get a call trace
that driver is trying to free already free IRQ vectors.
Add a check in i40e_clear_interrupt_scheme for __I40E_MISC_IRQ_REQUESTED
PF state before calling i40e_free_misc_vector. This state is set only if
misc IRQ vectors were properly initialized. |
