smb: client: fix cifsFileInfo reference leak in deferred close
When cifs_close() defers a close, it hands the cifsFileInfo reference
of the closing struct file to the queued work. Each execution of
smb2_deferred_work_close() drops one such reference.
deferred_close_scheduled can be false while the work is pending: the
workqueue clears PENDING when the callback starts to run, before the
callback clears the flag under deferred_lock. A close in that
interval requeues the running work, and the callback then clears the
flag, leaving the requeued work pending with the flag down. A later
cifs_open() can reuse the handle and its cifs_close() reaches the
same branch: queue_delayed_work() fails because the work is still
pending, but cifs_close() returns without dropping the closing file's
reference. The cifsFileInfo count stays pinned and its tlink, dentry
and server handle are leaked.
Check the return value and hand off the reference only when work was
actually queued. Otherwise, use the shared _cifsFileInfo_put(), like
the mod_delayed_work() branch above: the pending execution already
owns its reference.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool. |

x86/mm/pat: Allocate split page tables as kernel page tables
A PTE is allocated directly without going through the standard page table
allocation routines (such as pte_alloc_one_kernel()) when the CPA code
splits a large page (__split_large_page()).
This means the page table constructor is never called nor is the page table
marked as a kernel page table.
The former results in the folio associated with the page table not being
marked as a page table (__pagetable_ctor() is never called thus neither is
__folio_set_pgtable()) nor are statistics updated to reflect
it (lruvec_stat_add_folio() is never called).
The latter issue of failing to mark the page table as a kernel page
table (ptdesc_set_kernel() is never called) is far more problematic.
Since commit:
5ba2f0a15564 ("mm: introduce deferred freeing for kernel page tables")
kernel page table freeing has been batched and since the
subsequent commit:
e37d5a2d60a3 ("iommu/sva: invalidate stale IOTLB entries for kernel address space")
IOTLB cache entries for kernel page tables have been invalidated upon
being freed.
Since split page tables are freed without this invalidation, the IOTLB
can contain stale entries for them.
Resolve the issue by using the ordinary PTE allocation API at split time.
This results in these kernel page tables invoking a page table constructor,
and thus requires a page table destructor.
Destructors are not always present, like for early allocated direct map
page tables). Conditionally call pagetable_dtor_free() if the PG_table
folio flag for the ptdesc is set, otherwise we free the page table via
pagetable_free().
Regardless of which path is taken page tables marked as kernel page tables,
which now includes split page tables, take the correct route through
pagetable_free_kernel().
There is a user-visible side effect in that split page tables will appear
in nr_page_table_pages in /proc/vmstat (as do other kernel page tables
allocated after early boot), however this is a positive change.
This issue started being markedly problematic after commit:
5ba2f0a15564 ("mm: introduce deferred freeing for kernel page tables")
so choose this as the Fixes target.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Prevent queue stop with deferred completions
When the driver receives a burst of packets, it can mark a BD with the
NO_CMPL bit to defer completions. The expectation is that the last
packet in the ring will have this bit unset and the completion generated
by that packet will cleanup that packet and the ones preceding it. This
helps to reduce the number of completions fired.
The suppressed completions are controlled by the driver and the number
of packets with suppressed completions scales with the size of the ring.
SW USO packets, on the other hand, have an upper bound on the maximum
number of BDs which can be consumed which does not scale with the ring
size.
So, for small rings it is possible that: a burst of packets is handed to
the driver, the driver defers completions for all of the packets because
the number of free descriptors stays above the threshold in the driver.
Then, a USO packet arrives, but the number of BDs available is not
enough and the USO code exits early.
In this case, you end up in a state where the ring is full of packets
with their completions suppressed, which can cause the queue to stop and
never be restarted.
Assuming default CONFIG_MAX_SKB_FRAGS, this is only possible for small
rings (<= 457 descriptors, below the driver default value) when
a burst of packets fills the ring, followed by a large USO packet that
can't fit. For larger rings, the delta between the completion
suppression threshold and the BDs required for SW USO is large enough
that completions will fire and this case is unreachable.
This issue was pointed out by Sashiko and while it seems fairly unlikely
given that the queue size must be small to trigger this, it is indeed
possible.
Fix this by tracking the last BD which deferred completions and
centralizing the logic for deciding when to ring the doorbell. The NO_CMPL
bit is now cleared in bnxt_txr_db_kick(), so every doorbell site is
covered, including the SW USO early exit. This guarantees the ring always
ends in a BD which generates a completion to clean it and wake the queue. |

xfs: bail out on bitmap errors in xrep_agfl_fill
LOLLM also points out that the xagb_bitmap_set call in xrep_agfl_fill
can fail, but we don't check the result of xagb_bitmap_walk, so we
silently drop the error and proceed with inconsistent incore data.
That shouldn't be allowed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: initialise error in xfs_defer_finish_one()
xfs_defer_finish_one() declares error without an initialiser and only
assigns it inside the loop over dfp->dfp_work. When that list is empty
the loop body never runs, control falls through to the "Done with the
dfp, free it" path, and the function returns an indeterminate value.
An item-less pending item reaches this through xfs_defer_add_barrier(),
which xfs_reap_ag_blocks() uses on any CONFIG_XFS_ONLINE_REPAIR kernel.
xfs_defer_finish_noroll() treats any non-EAGAIN return as fatal, so a
non-zero stack value turns a successful barrier into a
SHUTDOWN_CORRUPT_INCORE in the middle of a repair. Zero is the correct
result: reaching the free path means the item loop drained without a
non-zero error. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Propagate TPA buffer allocation failures in bnxt_queue_mem_alloc()
bnxt_alloc_one_tpa_info_data() returns -ENOMEM as soon as one allocation
fails. This leaves the remaining rxr->rx_tpa[] entries zeroed.
bnxt_queue_mem_alloc() discards that return value, so the partially
initialized ring is installed by bnxt_queue_start().
Since the agg_id is picked by the hardware and bnxt_alloc_agg_idx maps
it to a SW index in rxr->rx_tpa[], it is possible that an uninitialized
slot can be chosen which would hand a zero DMA address to the device.
Fix this by checking the return value of bnxt_alloc_one_tpa_info_data
and unwinding, freeing the ring buffers. |

powerpc/eeh: Fix recursive locking on devices without EEH sensitive driver
The commit 1010b4c012b0 ("powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device hotplug
safe") refactored the EEH code such that the pci_rescan_remove_lock is
held at the beginning of eeh_handle_normal_event() and the
eeh_reset_device() is called with that lock being held. Looks like the
commit missed to remove the existing lock/unlock inside eeh_rmv_device()
which is no longer necessary. This is causing the eehd to hang on the
lock which it actually holds when that code path is taken.

perf/x86/intel: Prevent drain_pebs() reentry
The PEBS buffer is shared by all events on a CPU, so drain_pebs() must
not be reentered. If so, one instance may observe stale buffer state and
potentially access out-of-bound memory.
Most invocations happen in NMI context, which naturally prevents reentry.
However, drain_pebs() is also reachable from process context via
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer().
In those paths, the PMU is often already disabled, but not guaranteed.
For example, __intel_pmu_pebs_disable() only disables the target counter,
so other active counters can still raise a PMI and interrupt an in-flight
drain_pebs(). Here is an example,
__perf_addr_filters_adjust()
perf_event_stop()
__perf_event_stop()
x86_pmu_stop() (event->pmu->stop)
intel_pmu_disable_event()
intel_pmu_pebs_disable()
__intel_pmu_pebs_disable()
intel_pmu_drain_large_pebs()
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer()
Introduce __intel_pmu_quiesce() and __intel_pmu_resume() helpers and
use them in intel_pmu_drain_large_pebs() to disable the full PMU
around the intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer() call, preventing reentry.
Also add a warning in intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer() when the full PMU is
not disabled. |

accel: ethosu: Ensure SRAM size is 0 on mapping failure
On a mapping failure of the SRAM, the SRAM size is left as non-zero. The
probe will succeed as the error return is not checked since having SRAM is
not a hard requirement. The non-zero size allows jobs to access SRAM which
is left pointing to physical base address 0x0. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: initialize policy rwsem before sysfs publication
cpufreq_policy_alloc() initializes policy->rwsem after
kobject_init_and_add() has created the policy sysfs directory and its
default attributes. A sysfs access can therefore reach a policy callback
before the semaphore has been initialized.
Initialize policy->rwsem before publishing the policy kobject so sysfs
callbacks always see an initialized semaphore. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/user_events: Don't destroy fields when event removal fails
destroy_user_event() destroys the event's fields before attempting to
remove the trace event call. If user_event_set_call_visible() fails,
e.g. because the event is still enabled and trace_remove_event_call()
returns -EBUSY, the event is left registered with an irreversibly
destroyed field list. Any subsequent interaction with the event then
operates on an empty field list while it is still fully visible in
tracefs.
Move the field destruction after the call removal, and splice the
field list back onto the event when the removal fails so the event
remains in a consistent state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mpls: clear inner_protocol when the last label is popped
skb_mpls_push() records the pre-encapsulation network header once, gated
on !skb->inner_protocol. skb_mpls_pop() never clears that record, so it
outlives the encapsulation it describes.
Open vSwitch can then re-push MPLS onto a packet whose
inner_network_header still points at the older, deeper offset: push a
label, pop every label, recirculate (ovs_flow_key_update() re-derives
key->eth.type and resets network_header, but leaves inner_*), then push
again. ovs_fragment() trusts the record:
skb->network_header = skb->inner_network_header;
so skb_network_offset() goes negative. The bound check is signed:
if (skb_network_offset(skb) > MAX_L2_LEN)
a negative offset passes it, and prepare_frag() widens the value:
unsigned int hlen = skb_network_offset(skb);
memcpy(&data->l2_data, skb->data, hlen);
which is a ~4GiB memcpy out of a 30-byte per-CPU buffer.
Reproduced on v7.3-rc1. RDX is the truncated length, (unsigned int)(-8):

Same root-cause shape as commit 975b5b067f52 ("ipv6: sr: restore network
header before routing and forwarding"): a stale network header offset
reaching a consumer that widens it. Here it originates in the MPLS
push/pop path.
Clear inner_protocol once the packet is no longer MPLS, so a later push
re-records the current header. net/sched/act_mpls.c is the only other
skb_mpls_pop() caller and gets the same fix; sch_frag.c saves and
restores inner_protocol around fragmentation in the same way OVS does. |

x86/cfi: Fix FineIBT hash offset in cfi_get_func_hash()
The switch of the FineIBT preamble from "subl $hash, %r10d" to the
shorter "subl $hash, %eax" moved the hash immediate from offset 7 to
offset 5 of the preamble. fineibt_preamble_hash was updated to match,
but the open-coded offset in cfi_get_func_hash() was missed and it
still reads the hash at offset 7.
cfi_get_func_hash() is used by the BPF JIT to give a struct_ops
trampoline the CFI hash of the stub function it stands in for. With
FineIBT the trampoline now gets the upper half of the real hash
followed by the first two bytes of the next instruction, so the first
indirect call from the kernel into a struct_ops program,
tcp_init_congestion_control() calling ->init() of a BPF congestion
control for example, fails the FineIBT check and the kernel dies with
a CFI failure.
Move the FineIBT preamble template and its offset defines above
cfi_get_func_hash() and use fineibt_preamble_hash there, so every
reader of the preamble shares one definition of its layout. The
CFI_FINEIBT arm is only built with CONFIG_FINEIBT, the only
configuration in which cfi_mode can take that value.
cfi_get_func_arity() does not need the same treatment: the __bhi_args
call whose displacement it reads still ends at the function address. |

drm/amdgpu: skip the VMID 0 flush for VRAM
Clear-on-release only runs on VRAM, which amdgpu_ttm_map_buffer() reaches
via its direct MC address without programming a GART window, yet the wipe
still forces a VMID 0 flush. On GFX11 (e.g. Navi33) that spurious SDMA
flush can wedge the engine; only flush when a GART window is actually used.
v2: Let amdgpu_ttm_map_buffer() return whether the VMID 0 flush is needed,
and drive the clear and copy paths from that. (Christian)
v3: Make the vm_needs_flush output parameter mandatory instead of
allowing NULL. (Christian)

x86/mm: Fix user-space data loss with MADV_FREE and THP
Some of users of Polars (a data analytics library) have lost production
data from this bug. They seem to have just the right combination of
huge pages, MADV_FREE and heavy reclaim pressure.
pmd_modify() masks the old value with (_HPAGE_CHG_MASK & ~_PAGE_DIRTY),
silently discarding the hardware dirty bit. The subsequent
pmd_mksaveddirty() call is supposed to transfer _PAGE_DIRTY into
_PAGE_SAVED_DIRTY when write-protecting, but the dirty bit was already
stripped from the value, so there is nothing left to transfer.
Contrast with pte_modify(), which keeps _PAGE_DIRTY_BITS in its mask,
and pud_modify(), which keeps _HPAGE_CHG_MASK untouched: pmd_modify()
is the odd one out. Any pmd_modify() on a writable, dirty PMD loses
the dirty state.
One visible consequence is data loss with MADV_FREE on PMD-mapped THP:
memset(buf, 0x5A, size); // PMD-mapped THP, PMD dirty
madvise(buf, size, MADV_FREE); // PMD cleaned but left writable,
// folio marked lazyfree
memset(buf, 0x5A, size); // hardware sets _PAGE_DIRTY again
mprotect(buf, size, PROT_READ); // pmd_modify() drops the dirty bit
mprotect(buf, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE);
// ... memory pressure ...
Reclaim (e.g. under memcg pressure) then finds the lazyfree folio with
no dirty bit set anywhere and frees it in
__discard_anon_folio_pmd_locked(), even though the data was rewritten
after MADV_FREE; subsequent reads fault in fresh zero pages. NUMA
hinting alone can trigger the same loss, as do_huge_pmd_numa_page()
restores the PMD through pmd_modify() as well.
PMD-mapped file THPs are affected too: mprotect()/NUMA hinting dropping
the dirty bit means rewritten data is never written back.
Fix it by keeping _PAGE_DIRTY in the preserved mask, exactly like
pte_modify() and pud_modify() do. The existing
pmd_mksaveddirty()/pmd_clear_saveddirty() pair then performs the
hardware-dirty <-> saved-dirty transition based on the write bit,
preserving the shadow-stack encoding rules. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sunvdc: unmap LDC cookies when the descriptor send fails
__send_request() maps the request's pages into the LDC channel's map
table (ldc_map_sg()), fills in the descriptor and marks it
VIO_DESC_READY before ringing the doorbell via __vdc_tx_trigger().
When the trigger fails, the error path only prints a message: the
descriptor stays READY and the cookies are never unmapped. The
mapping is normally released in vdc_end_one() when the peer completes
the descriptor - but a descriptor whose doorbell was never sent will
never complete, and since dr->prod is not advanced on failure, the
reset path (vdc_requeue_inflight(), which walks [cons, prod)) never
visits it either. The map table entries are leaked permanently.
Since commit a11f6ca9aef9 ("sunvdc: Do not spin in an infinite loop
when vio_ldc_send() returns EAGAIN") trigger failures occur in
practice under load, so every resulting I/O error also leaks one
request's worth of entries from the fixed-size (8192 entries per
channel) map table. Because the allocator hands out contiguous
ranges, fragmentation makes large multi-segment requests fail first
as the table drains, until ldc_map_sg() fails permanently and the
disk is dead until reboot.
It also makes any retry-based recovery unusable: requeuing the
request on -EAGAIN remaps the pages on every attempt, overwriting
desc->cookies and orphaning the previous mapping, so the table
drains at the retry rate. This is the memory exhaustion observed
when the requeue approach was first tested in October 2025.
Roll back on failure: unmap the cookies, mark the descriptor FREE
again and clear the request entry. If the trigger failed with
-ENOTCONN, __vdc_tx_trigger() has already reset the port, which
tears down and reallocates both the dring and the LDC channel
including its map table - nothing to roll back, and the stale
descriptor must not be touched. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/net: don't overconsume buffers when using MSG_TRUNC
When a recv/recvmsg is issued with MSG_TRUNC and the incoming packet is
larger than the provided buffer, the net layer returns the full length
of the packet rather than the number of bytes actually copied into the
buffer. As a result, io_uring advances more of the provided buffer ring
than was actually filled. Use the actual filled region size to consume
the buffer, but still return the full size to preserve MSG_TRUNC
semantics.
Take care with multishot, because that seems to already truncate the
consumption based on the available payload size.
This was reported in https://github.com/axboe/liburing/issues/1619.

tracing: Keep the entry count when the histogram stats allocation fails
print_entries() uses n_entries both as the number of sort entries and as
its own return value, so the -ENOMEM it stores when the stats allocation
fails overwrites the count that the cleanup still needs:
n_entries = tracing_map_sort_entries(map, ...);
if (n_entries < 0)
return n_entries;
...
if (!stats) {
n_entries = -ENOMEM;
goto out;
}
...
out:
tracing_map_destroy_sort_entries(sort_entries, n_entries);
tracing_map_destroy_sort_entries() takes an unsigned int and loops up to
it, so -ENOMEM arrives as 4294967284. It walks an array of at most
map->max_elts pointers and calls destroy_sort_entry(), which dereferences
and frees, on whatever lies past the end.
Reading the hist file of a trigger with a .percent value, with that
allocation forced to fail:

A few pages further the fault is fatal. The registers at the oops confirm
the bound: the loop's end pointer less the array start, over the pointer
size, is 4294967284.
Return the error in a separate variable and leave n_entries holding the
count, the way tracing_map_sort_entries() does on its own error path.
The stats block is only entered for a value carrying .percent or .graph,
which __create_val_field() has rejected since v6.3, so this cannot be
reached in mainline as it stands. It becomes reachable again with
"tracing: hist: let values keep the percent and graph modifiers", so it
should be applied first. |
