| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/core: Handle pick_task() releasing the rq lock
Core scheduling's pick_next_task() breaks when a ->pick_task()
implementation can release the rq lock. The selection state derived on entry
is only valid while the lock is held continuously. Once a pick can drop the
lock, an interleaving selection can invalidate all of it: the single-CPU
fast path can commit an uncookied pick although the core went cookied during
the release, and forceidle committed by the interleaving selection skews the
restarted pass's accounting.
Fix it by restarting the whole selection when a pick returns RETRY_TASK
after releasing the lock: a single restart point above the state derivation
replaces the per-loop restart labels, so a retry picks up state committed by
interleaving selections and accounts and resets forceidle like a fresh
selection would.
need_sync and fi_before latch across retries. Clock validity can't be
re-derived - there is no program-ordered way to tell whether the own and
core rq clocks are still updated after the lock was released, as other
lockers' pin cycles may or may not have invalidated them. When restarting,
clear core_clock_updated so that the sibling loop re-updates the core rq,
and update the own rq clock if invalidated. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/core: Make core-sched flips wait for in-flight selections
Core scheduling's pick_next_task() operates on all sibling rqs under one
acquisition of the shared core-wide lock. A ->pick_task() that releases the
rq lock leaves every sibling __lock momentarily free, letting
__sched_core_flip(false) complete mid-selection and rebind rq_lockp() under
it. The selection resumes on the split locks, touching sibling state it no
longer protects, and __schedule() finally releases a lock that was never
taken while leaking the one that was.
Count in-flight core-wide selections in the leader's rq->core_pick_in_flight
and make __sched_core_flip() wait for the count to drain. The count only
changes under the shared lock, which the flip holds while sampling, so no
other ordering is needed. The wait can repeat while selections overlap, but
the flip backs off between samples and flips are rare cookie-lifetime
events.
sched_core_cpu_deactivate() moves the count to the new leader - a stale copy
left behind would bias it forever if that CPU later returns as its own
leader. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched_ext: Replace SCX_RQ_BAL_KEEP with a dispatch verdict return
SCX_RQ_BAL_KEEP tells the pick to keep running the previous task, a leftover
from when balancing and picking were separate operations. An rq-level flag
only works while dispatches and picks pair up one to one, which core
scheduling breaks: selections interleave through dispatch's lock drops and a
pick can consume a stale flag, keeping a task that has since been dequeued.
Fixing core scheduling support requires the decision to travel with the
dispatch that made it. Make scx_dispatch_sched() and balance_one() return an
explicit verdict instead and drop the flag's plumbing from the tools autogen
enum headers.
Also factor the pick-side invocation, its follow-up queueing and the
post-dispatch checks out of do_pick_task_scx() into dispatch_pick(). No
functional changes intended.
v2: Drop the SCX_RQ_BAL_KEEP plumbing from the tools autogen enum headers
as well (Andrea). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched_ext: Fix this_rq() assumptions in dispatch kfuncs
Under core scheduling, dispatch runs from within the core-wide pick and can
target a sibling rq, so ops.dispatch() may execute on a CPU different from
the dispatched rq's. Several kfunc paths assumed the two always coincide:
- scx_dsq_move() decided whether an rq lock is held by testing this_rq()'s
rq flags and lock-danced accordingly. A dispatch for a sibling took the
unlocked-context branch and acquired the source rq lock on top of the
already held dispatched rq lock which could deadlock.
- scx_bpf_sub_dispatch() dispatched this_rq() with its stashed
sub_dispatch_prev, which is NULL when dispatching for a sibling.
- finish_dispatch(), scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() and scx_bpf_dsq_nr_queued()
resolved SCX_DSQ_LOCAL to this CPU's local DSQ rather than the dispatched
rq's. The latter two are callable from other rq-locked operations too,
where SCX_DSQ_LOCAL now likewise resolves to the op's rq. This changes
behavior also without core scheduling, e.g. for ops.enqueue() running a
remote wakeup on the waking CPU, and is intended: which CPU happens to
execute an operation is incidental, the op's rq is what it is operating
on, and the resolution now matches the insert side where SCX_DSQ_LOCAL
dispatches land on the task's rq.
Use the rq tracked by scx_locked_rq(), which is set to the dispatched rq
around ops invocations and NULL in unlocked contexts. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched_ext: Fix rq->core_pick corruption under core scheduling
Core scheduling's pick_next_task() picks what to run on every SMT sibling of
the core in a single pass under the shared core-wide rq lock. The selection
state is consistent only while the lock is held continuously, so
->pick_task() originally could not release it. However, since 4c95380701f5
("sched/ext: Fold balance_scx() into pick_task_scx()"), sched_ext runs
dispatch from inside the pick and dispatching can drop the rq lock. To
support this, pick_next_task() has been updated to restart the whole
selection when a pick returns RETRY_TASK after releasing the lock.
When selections on the same core interleave through the dropped lock, they
corrupt each other's state: one clears the other's rq->core_pick leading to
a NULL deref, or invalidates its keep-the-previous-task decision leaving a
dequeued task running, which deadlocks the next wakeup and matches the
reported hard hangs. A cookied ping-pong load on an SMT machine makes the
interleavings frequent and kills the kernel within seconds.
Fix it by making the pick return RETRY_TASK whenever dispatch released the
rq lock, so that a selection only ever commits picks made under a
continuously held lock. The previous patch's rq->scx.lock_drop_seq counts
the releases. A dispatch that touched nothing never releases the lock and
its verdict, including "nothing to run", stands: retries are bounded, each
following a dispatch that actually did something, and an idle CPU does not
loop.
If another dispatch is already in flight on the rq, skip dispatching and
pick from what is already queued locally - the in-flight dispatch has
released the lock, so its own selection will retry and re-pick this rq,
while returning RETRY_TASK here would only spin on the lock that dispatch
needs to finish.
Balance callbacks must run in the context that queued them, so they can only
be queued on the CPU's own rq. When dispatching for another rq, run the
deferred work directly instead - that rq may consume all its picks through
the core-sched fast path and never queue the callback itself.
The put_prev_task_scx() warning about a runnable task being left behind
assumed that dispatch ran as part of the very pick that is switching away.
That now only holds on the non-core path, so gate it and drop the
cookie-match test, which is always true without core scheduling, from its
condition. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched_ext: Don't BUG_ON a destroyed DSQ in process_deferred_reenq_users
scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() queues a deferred reenq (dru) that runs from
run_deferred(), not ops.dispatch(). If the DSQ is destroyed before the dru
runs, process_deferred_reenq_users() sees dsq->id == SCX_DSQ_INVALID and
hits the BUG_ON. destroy_dsq() doesn't flush pending drus, so just skip.
tj: Read dsq->id once with READ_ONCE(). Reading it separately in the INVALID
check and the BUG_ON would leave a window where destroy_dsq() can
invalidate the id between the two reads and still trigger the BUG_ON. |

Bytes 14-15 of 16 are uninitialized
Memory access of size 16 starts at ffff88800cbdb000
When processing the last unaligned element of the scatterlist, it is
supplemented with missing bytes in the amount of pad_len. These bytes
remain uninitialized, which leads to a problem.
Extend last_sg->length by pad_len first, then use sg_zero_buffer() to
zero those pad_len bytes. sg_zero_buffer() uses sg_miter internally,
which correctly handles sg entries spanning multiple pages and padding
that crosses a page boundary.

qede: Fix NULL pointer dereference in TPA fragment processing
Under memory pressure, the qede driver encounters NULL pointer
dereferences when processing TPA continuation fragments.
Commit 8a8633978b84 ("qede: Add build_skb() support.") accidentally
dropped the assignment of tpa_info->buffer.data in qede_tpa_start().
When memory pressure causes an SKB allocation failure in qede_tpa_start(),
the driver sets tpa_start_fail = true and attempts to recycle the physical
page later in qede_tpa_end() via qede_reuse_page(). However, because
buffer.data was left uninitialized (NULL), qede_reuse_page() pushes a
"ghost" BD (valid DMA mapping but NULL data pointer) back into the
active Rx ring.
The next time the hardware uses this ring slot, it passes a NULL page
to qede_fill_frag_skb(), causing a kernel panic.
Example crash from production system:

RDMA/ionic: Embed counter driver data in rdma_counter allocation
Commit 7e53b31acc7f ("RDMA/core: Create and destroy rdma_counter using
rdma_zalloc_drv_obj()") requires drivers implementing counter ops to
embed struct rdma_counter in a driver-specific struct, register its size
via INIT_RDMA_OBJ_SIZE, and provide a counter_init callback.
The ionic driver was merged without this adaptation, causing a NULL
pointer dereference in alloc_and_bind() since rdma_zalloc_drv_obj()
allocates zero bytes when size_rdma_counter is unset.

RDMA/ucma: Lock the handler in ucma_set_ib_path()
ucma_set_ib_path() calls ucma_event_handler() straight from the write()
path, without the handler lock that keeps ctx->file stable while a uevent
is queued. The handler re-reads ctx->file for every dereference:
mutex_lock(&ctx->file->mut); /* file A */
list_add_tail(&uevent->list, &ctx->file->event_list); /* file B */
mutex_unlock(&ctx->file->mut); /* file B */
wake_up_interruptible(&ctx->file->poll_wait); /* file B */
A concurrent ucma_migrate_id() reassigns ctx->file while the SET_OPTION
caller sleeps in mutex_lock(), so the list_add_tail() lands on file B's
event_list while only file A's mutex is held, racing every other user of
that list:

device to be present.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/ucma: Lock the handler in ucma_write_cm_event()
ctx->file may only be changed under the handler lock and the xa_lock, which
is what stops uevents being queued for a ctx while ucma_migrate_id() moves
it to another file. The CM core takes that lock before invoking
ucma_event_handler(), but the write() paths that queue uevents themselves
do not.
ucma_write_cm_event() re-reads ctx->file for each of its four dereferences,
so ucma_migrate_id() can swap it mid-sequence:
mutex_lock(&ctx->file->mut); /* file A */
list_add_tail(&uevent->list, &ctx->file->event_list); /* file B */
mutex_unlock(&ctx->file->mut); /* file B */
wake_up_interruptible(&ctx->file->poll_wait); /* file B */
The window is the mutex_lock() itself: the writer sleeps in it while the
migration reassigns ctx->file. The list_add_tail() then runs on file B's
event_list holding only file A's mutex:
list_add corruption. prev->next should be next (ffff888101320f30),

The uevent is also stranded on a list ucma_cleanup_ctx_events() will not
walk, so it outlives its context. /dev/infiniband/rdma_cm is 0666 and no

RDMA/uverbs: Add UVERBS_ATTR_UHW to UVERBS_METHOD_REG_MR
The original commit missed that three drivers (mthca, irdma, siw) have UHW
data associated with reg_mr that cannot be passed through the ioctl. They
also assume that the udata cannot be NULL, so failing to pass a valid
udata can trigger a NULL udata crash in those drivers.
This never happens in real systems since in rdma-core ibv_cmd_reg_mr_ex()
does not accept a udata and those three drivers don't use it, however a
malicious userspace could trigger it. |
