net: Fix rcu_tasks stall in threaded busypoll
I was debugging a NIC driver when I noticed that when I enable
threaded busypoll, bpftrace hangs when starting up. dmesg showed:
rcu_tasks_wait_gp: rcu_tasks grace period number 85 (since boot) is 10658 jiffies old.

The cause is that in threaded busypoll, the main loop is in
napi_threaded_poll rather than napi_threaded_poll_loop, where the
latter rarely iterates more than once within its loop. For
rcu_softirq_qs_periodic inside napi_threaded_poll_loop to report its
qs state, the last_qs must be 100ms behind, and this can't happen
because napi_threaded_poll_loop rarely iterates in threaded busypoll,
and each time napi_threaded_poll_loop is called last_qs is reset to
latest jiffies.
This patch changes so that in threaded busypoll, last_qs is saved
in the outer napi_threaded_poll, and whether busy_poll_last_qs
is NULL indicates whether napi_threaded_poll_loop is called for
busypoll. This way last_qs would not reset to latest jiffies on
each invocation of napi_threaded_poll_loop. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free in smb_lazy_parent_lease_break_close()
opinfo pointer obtained via rcu_dereference(fp->f_opinfo) is being
accessed after rcu_read_unlock() has been called. This creates a
race condition where the memory could be freed by a concurrent
writer between the unlock and the subsequent pointer dereferences
(opinfo->is_lease, etc.), leading to a use-after-free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: Don't log keys in SMB3 signing and encryption key generation
When KSMBD_DEBUG_AUTH logging is enabled, generate_smb3signingkey() and
generate_smb3encryptionkey() log the session, signing, encryption, and
decryption key bytes. Remove the logs to avoid exposing credentials. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free by using call_rcu() for oplock_info
ksmbd currently frees oplock_info immediately using kfree(), even
though it is accessed under RCU read-side critical sections in places
like opinfo_get() and proc_show_files().
Since there is no RCU grace period delay between nullifying the pointer
and freeing the memory, a reader can still access oplock_info
structure after it has been freed. This can leads to a use-after-free
especially in opinfo_get() where atomic_inc_not_zero() is called on
already freed memory.
Fix this by switching to deferred freeing using call_rcu(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: nexthop: fix percpu use-after-free in remove_nh_grp_entry
When removing a nexthop from a group, remove_nh_grp_entry() publishes
the new group via rcu_assign_pointer() then immediately frees the
removed entry's percpu stats with free_percpu(). However, the
synchronize_net() grace period in the caller remove_nexthop_from_groups()
runs after the free. RCU readers that entered before the publish still
see the old group and can dereference the freed stats via
nh_grp_entry_stats_inc() -> get_cpu_ptr(nhge->stats), causing a
use-after-free on percpu memory.
Fix by deferring the free_percpu() until after synchronize_net() in the
caller. Removed entries are chained via nh_list onto a local deferred
free list. After the grace period completes and all RCU readers have
finished, the percpu stats are safely freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ncsi: fix skb leak in error paths
Early return paths in NCSI RX and AEN handlers fail to release
the received skb, resulting in a memory leak.
Specifically, ncsi_aen_handler() returns on invalid AEN packets
without consuming the skb. Similarly, ncsi_rcv_rsp() exits early
when failing to resolve the NCSI device, response handler, or
request, leaving the skb unfreed. |

drm/i915: Fix potential overflow of shmem scatterlist length
When a scatterlists table of a GEM shmem object of size 4 GB or more is
populated with pages allocated from a folio, unsigned int .length
attribute of a scatterlist may get overflowed if total byte length of
pages allocated to that single scatterlist happens to reach or cross the
4GB limit. As a consequence, users of the object may suffer from hitting
unexpected, premature end of the object's backing pages.

That issue was apprehended by the author of a change that introduced it,
and potential risk even annotated with a comment, but then never addressed.
When adding folio pages to a scatterlist table, take care of byte length
of any single scatterlist not exceeding max_segment.

io_uring/kbuf: check if target buffer list is still legacy on recycle
There's a gap between when the buffer was grabbed and when it
potentially gets recycled, where if the list is empty, someone could've
upgraded it to a ring provided type. This can happen if the request
is forced via io-wq. The legacy recycling is missing checking if the
buffer_list still exists, and if it's of the correct type. Add those
checks. |

xfs: fix undersized l_iclog_roundoff values

fix mkfs not to generate broken filesystems, but anyone can fuzz the
ondisk superblock so we should be more cautious. I think the inadequate
logic predates commit a6a65fef5ef8d0, but that's clearly going to
require a different backport. |

smb: client: fix in-place encryption corruption in SMB2_write()
SMB2_write() places write payload in iov[1..n] as part of rq_iov.
smb3_init_transform_rq() pointer-shares rq_iov, so crypt_message()
encrypts iov[1] in-place, replacing the original plaintext with
ciphertext. On a replayable error, the retry sends the same iov[1]
which now contains ciphertext instead of the original data,
resulting in corruption.
The corruption is most likely to be observed when connections are
unstable, as reconnects trigger write retries that re-send the
already-encrypted data.
This affects SFU mknod, MF symlinks, etc. On kernels before
6.10 (prior to the netfs conversion), sync writes also used
this path and were similarly affected. The async write path
wasn't unaffected as it uses rq_iter which gets deep-copied.
Fix by moving the write payload into rq_iter via iov_iter_kvec(),
so smb3_init_transform_rq() deep-copies it before encryption. |

i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Correct RING_CTRL_ABORT handling in DMA dequeue
The logic used to abort the DMA ring contains several flaws:
1. The driver unconditionally issues a ring abort even when the ring has
already stopped.
2. The completion used to wait for abort completion is never
re-initialized, resulting in incorrect wait behavior.
3. The abort sequence unintentionally clears RING_CTRL_ENABLE, which
resets hardware ring pointers and disrupts the controller state.
4. If the ring is already stopped, the abort operation should be
considered successful without attempting further action.
Fix the abort handling by checking whether the ring is running before
issuing an abort, re-initializing the completion when needed, ensuring that
RING_CTRL_ENABLE remains asserted during abort, and treating an already
stopped ring as a successful condition. |

arm64: dts: qcom: monaco: Reserve full Gunyah metadata region
We observe spurious "Synchronous External Abort" exceptions
(ESR=0x96000010) and kernel crashes on Monaco-based platforms.
These faults are caused by the kernel inadvertently accessing
hypervisor-owned memory that is not properly marked as reserved.
>From boot log, The Qualcomm hypervisor reports the memory range
at 0x91a80000 of size 0x80000 (512 KiB) as hypervisor-owned:
qhee_hyp_assign_remove_memory: 0x91a80000/0x80000 -> ret 0
However, the EFI memory map provided by firmware only reserves the
subrange 0x91a40000–0x91a87fff (288 KiB). The remaining portion
(0x91a88000–0x91afffff) is incorrectly reported as conventional
memory (from efi debug):
efi: 0x000091a40000-0x000091a87fff [Reserved...]
efi: 0x000091a88000-0x0000938fffff [Conventional...]
As a result, the allocator may hand out PFNs inside the hypervisor
owned region, causing fatal aborts when the kernel accesses those
addresses.
Add a reserved-memory carveout for the Gunyah hypervisor metadata
at 0x91a80000 (512 KiB) and mark it as no-map so Linux does not
map or allocate from this area.

net: ipa: fix event ring index not programmed for IPA v5.0+
For IPA v5.0+, the event ring index field moved from CH_C_CNTXT_0 to
CH_C_CNTXT_1. The v5.0 register definition intended to define this
field in the CH_C_CNTXT_1 fmask array but used the old identifier of
ERINDEX instead of CH_ERINDEX.
Without a valid event ring, GSI channels could never signal transfer
completions. This caused gsi_channel_trans_quiesce() to block
forever in wait_for_completion().
At least for IPA v5.2 this resolves an issue seen where runtime
suspend, system suspend, and remoteproc stop all hanged forever. It
also meant the IPA data path was completely non functional. |

net/ipv6: ioam6: prevent schema length wraparound in trace fill
ioam6_fill_trace_data() stores the schema contribution to the trace
length in a u8. With bit 22 enabled and the largest schema payload,
sclen becomes 1 + 1020 / 4, wraps from 256 to 0, and bypasses the
remaining-space check. __ioam6_fill_trace_data() then positions the
write cursor without reserving the schema area but still copies the
4-byte schema header and the full schema payload, overrunning the trace
buffer.
Keep sclen in an unsigned int so the remaining-space check and the write
cursor calculation both see the full schema length. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Properly mark live registers for indirect jumps
For a `gotox rX` instruction the rX register should be marked as used
in the compute_insn_live_regs() function. Fix this. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: accel: adxl380: Avoid reading more entries than present in FIFO
The interrupt handler reads FIFO entries in batches of N samples, where N
is the number of scan elements that have been enabled. However, the sensor
fills the FIFO one sample at a time, even when more than one channel is
enabled. Therefore,the number of entries reported by the FIFO status
registers may not be a multiple of N; if this number is not a multiple, the
number of entries read from the FIFO may exceed the number of entries
actually present.
To fix the above issue, round down the number of FIFO entries read from the
status registers so that it is always a multiple of N. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: define and enforce CEPH_MAX_KEY_LEN
When decoding the key, verify that the key material would fit into
a fixed-size buffer in process_auth_done() and generally has a sane
length.
The new CEPH_MAX_KEY_LEN check replaces the existing check for a key
with no key material which is a) not universal since CEPH_CRYPTO_NONE
has to be excluded and b) doesn't provide much value since a smaller
than needed key is just as invalid as no key -- this has to be handled
elsewhere anyway. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/page_alloc: clear page->private in free_pages_prepare()
Several subsystems (slub, shmem, ttm, etc.) use page->private but don't
clear it before freeing pages. When these pages are later allocated as
high-order pages and split via split_page(), tail pages retain stale
page->private values.
This causes a use-after-free in the swap subsystem. The swap code uses
page->private to track swap count continuations, assuming freshly
allocated pages have page->private == 0. When stale values are present,
swap_count_continued() incorrectly assumes the continuation list is valid
and iterates over uninitialized page->lru containing LIST_POISON values,
causing a crash:
KASAN: maybe wild-memory-access in range [0xdead000000000100-0xdead000000000107]
RIP: 0010:__do_sys_swapoff+0x1151/0x1860
Fix this by clearing page->private in free_pages_prepare(), ensuring all
freed pages have clean state regardless of previous use. |
