2026-08-03xor: enable lock context analysisChristoph Hellwig
Patch series "misc lib/raid/ improvements v2". This series improves the benchmark-based algorithm selection and adds kunit benchmarks for both the XOR and raid6 libraries, and tidies up a few very minor other bits. This patch (of 8): The code doesn't have any locking, so this is trivial.

2026-08-03FAT: allow 0xE9 near jump in fat_read_static_bpb()Ziran Zhang
fat_read_static_bpb() only accepts a short jump as a valid bootstrap code signature for DOS 1.x volumes when the dos1xfloppy mount option is used. However, according to the Microsoft fatgen103.doc, the BS_jmpBoot field has two allowed forms: 0xEB 0x?? 0x90 (short jump + NOP) and 0xE9 0x?? 0x?? (near jump). The specification explicitly states that either form is acceptable. This patch relaxes the check to also accept 0xE9 as the first byte of the jump instruction.

2026-08-03ocfs2: cluster: use an on-stack bio for the heartbeat writeJoseph Qi
The disk heartbeat write always covers this node's own single slot, i.e. one heartbeat block that lives within a single page. It is submitted by o2hb_issue_node_write() and waited on by the caller before the ctxt goes out of scope, so its lifetime is well bounded. Turn it into an on-stack bio embedded in struct o2hb_bio_wait_ctxt rather than allocating one from the mempool. This removes any allocation from the fence-critical write path entirely: a delayed or blocked heartbeat write is what leads to the local node being fenced, so it should not depend on the state of a shared bio pool. Because the bio is embedded rather than allocated, add a dedicated o2hb_write_bio_end_io() that does not call bio_put(), and tear the bio down with bio_uninit() once the caller has waited on the I/O. The read path still allocates via o2hb_setup_one_bio() with GFP_NOFS, since it issues a variable number of bios in a loop.

2026-08-03ocfs2: cluster: use GFP_NOFS for heartbeat bio allocationJoseph Qi
o2hb_setup_one_bio() allocates the heartbeat bio with GFP_ATOMIC. The disk heartbeat runs in the o2hb kernel thread (o2hb_do_disk_heartbeat), which is process context and can sleep, so there is no atomicity requirement here. GFP_ATOMIC lacks __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, so the allocation is not served from the fs_bio_set mempool reserve and can return NULL under memory pressure. A failed heartbeat allocation aborts the heartbeat and can lead to the local node being fenced, which is exactly what the old comment worried about. Use GFP_NOFS instead. It keeps __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so the allocation is backed by the fs_bio_set mempool and cannot fail, while avoiding recursion back into the filesystem during heartbeat I/O. As the allocation can no longer fail, drop the dead ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) path in o2hb_setup_one_bio() and the now-redundant IS_ERR() handling in its callers.

2026-08-03selftests/acct: add cgroupstats functional testYiyang Chen
Add a self-contained test for the CGROUPSTATS_CMD_GET genl command that covers three cases: - querying a cgroup v1 hierarchy and verifying the response contains non-zero task counts - rejecting an invalid fd without NLM_F_ACK - rejecting an invalid fd with NLM_F_ACK Link: https://lore.kernel.org/2a56921276f0962f97f00863e8c7d3c3f6893d5a.1783713230.git.cyyzero16@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Yiyang Chen <cyyzero16@gmail.com> Cc: Balbir Singh <balbirs@nvidia.com> Cc: Dr. Thomas Orgis <thomas.orgis@uni-hamburg.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
2026-08-03taskstats: return -EBADF when cgroupstats receives an invalid fdYiyang Chen
Patch series "taskstats: fix cgroupstats invalid fd handling and add selftests". This series fixes an issue where cgroupstats mishandles invalid file descriptors, and introduces a functional kselftest to prevent regressions. When an invalid file descriptor is passed via CGROUPSTATS_CMD_ATTR_FD, cgroupstats_user_cmd() returns 0 instead of an error code. This leads to two broken behaviors depending on netlink flags: - Callers without NLM_F_ACK block indefinitely on recv(). - Callers with NLM_F_ACK receive a misleading success ACK (errno == 0) but no actual statistics payload. The first patch addresses this by returning -EBADF when the fd cannot be resolved. The second patch adds a comprehensive kselftest covering both the valid cgroup v1 query and the invalid fd paths (with and without NLM_F_ACK) to ensure the fixes work as intended. This patch (of 2): cgroupstats_user_cmd() returns 0 without sending a reply or a netlink error when the fd passed via CGROUPSTATS_CMD_ATTR_FD does not resolve to an open file in the caller's table. As a result: - clients that did not set NLM_F_ACK block on recv() indefinitely waiting for a CGROUPSTATS_CMD_NEW message that is never emitted; - clients that set NLM_F_ACK receive a misleading "success" ACK (errno == 0) with no statistics payload. Return -EBADF instead so the netlink layer propagates the error to userspace as expected.

2026-08-03ocfs2: validate rl_used against rl_count in refcount block validatorIbrahim Hashimov
ocfs2_find_refcount_rec_in_rl() walks the on-disk refcount record array with: for (; i < le16_to_cpu(rb->rf_records.rl_used); i++) { rec = &rb->rf_records.rl_recs[i]; ... rl_recs[] lives in a single metadata block (4096 bytes on the common configuration), so its real capacity is fixed by ocfs2_refcount_recs_per_rb(sb) (247 records for a 4K block with the 16-byte ocfs2_refcount_rec). rl_used and rl_count are both read directly off disk by ocfs2_validate_refcount_block() and are never checked against that capacity, nor against each other, before any refcount/reflink/CoW operation walks the array. A crafted (or corrupted) refcount block with rl_used == 0xffff makes the loop above walk far past the end of the block, dereferencing rl_recs[i] for i up to 65534. The resulting index is then handed to the sibling ocfs2_insert_refcount_rec(), whose insert-shift does: if (index < le16_to_cpu(rf_list->rl_used)) memmove(&rf_list->rl_recs[index + 1], &rf_list->rl_recs[index], (le16_to_cpu(rf_list->rl_used) - index) * sizeof(struct ocfs2_refcount_rec)); i.e. a memmove() of up to (0xffff - index) * 16 bytes (~1 MiB) from an offset already past the block. This is reachable from an ordinary reflink (FICLONE) against a crafted/corrupted ocfs2 image: attaching an extent whose cpos sorts past every real record in the leaf forces the lookup to run off the end instead of returning early on a match. The attacker model is local: CAP_SYS_ADMIN mounting a crafted or corrupted ocfs2 image, or a raw write to the block device backing an already-mounted ocfs2 filesystem. ocfs2_validate_refcount_block() already validates the block's ECC, signature, rf_blkno and rf_fs_generation, but never rl_count/rl_used against the block's actual on-disk capacity. This is the same class of gap that ocfs2_validate_extent_block() (fs/ocfs2/alloc.c) already closes for the sibling extent-list header, which checks both the record capacity and the "used" bound before any code walks h_list.l_recs[]: if (le16_to_cpu(eb->h_list.l_count) != ocfs2_extent_recs_per_eb(sb)) { rc = ocfs2_error(...); goto bail; } if (le16_to_cpu(eb->h_list.l_next_free_rec) > le16_to_cpu(eb->h_list.l_count)) { rc = ocfs2_error(...); goto bail; } Add the equivalent pair of checks to ocfs2_validate_refcount_block(): reject a refcount block whose rl_count does not match the fixed per-block capacity returned by ocfs2_refcount_recs_per_rb(), and reject rl_used > rl_count. Both checks are skipped when OCFS2_REFCOUNT_TREE_FL is set, because in that case the same union bytes hold an ocfs2_extent_list (rf_list), not the refcount record list (rf_records) -- that layout is already validated separately by ocfs2_validate_extent_block() when the referenced extent block is read. This mirrors the existing "!(rb->rf_flags & OCFS2_REFCOUNT_TREE_FL)" guard used elsewhere in this file (e.g. ocfs2_get_refcount_rec()) to decide whether rf_records or rf_list is the live member of the union. With this in place, a forged rl_used/rl_count is caught at block validation time (ocfs2_error()), consistent with every other corruption check in this function, instead of driving an out-of-bounds read in ocfs2_find_refcount_rec_in_rl() and a subsequent out-of-bounds memmove() in ocfs2_insert_refcount_rec(). Verified against a crafted image on a v6.19 KASAN (KASAN_GENERIC) build: replaying the same reflink (FICLONE) reliably hit a KASAN report in __ocfs2_increase_refcount()/ocfs2_insert_refcount_rec() before this patch, and triggers no report once ocfs2_validate_refcount_block() rejects the forged rl_used/rl_count.

2026-08-03rapidio: clear mport->net when rio_add_net() failsGuangshuo Li
rio_alloc_net() stores the newly allocated rio_net in mport->net before rio_scan_alloc_net() registers the device. If rio_add_net() fails, rio_scan_alloc_net() drops the device reference with put_device(), which releases the rio_net through the device release callback. However, mport->net is left pointing at the freed object. A later mport unregister path can then dereference the dangling mport->net pointer and may try to free the same rio_net again. Clear mport->net in the rio_add_net() failure path, matching the cleanup done for the destID table allocation failure path.

This reverts commit 58b6fcd2ab34 ("ocfs2: mark inode bad upon validation failure during read").

2026-08-03checkpatch: don't emit warnings for ID-base USB & PCI DT compatiblesChen-Yu Tsai
The USB and PCI device bindings define some compatible patterns based on device IDs that use the comma to separate vendor and product IDs. These prefix patterns include: - ^usb(if)?[0-9a-f]{1,4}, - ^pci[0-9a-f]{2,4}, - ^pciclass, These are not real vendor prefixes. Don't emit warnings for them. Instead just skip over the DT compatible check altogether, and leave the real check to the DT validator. This avoids false positive warnings about undocumented DT vendor prefixes and compatibles. Note that the script mostly only checks the first compatible string of each node, as it processes the source file line-by-line, and the check only matches on the line with 'compatible = "..."'. Otherwise there would be more warnings from arch/mips/boot/dts/loongson/ls7a-pch.dtsi since that file also includes compatibles like "pciclass0c0310" and "pciclass0c03" which are not accepted either. "pci0014,7a24.0" is not valid either, but this patch leaves the real check to the DT validator.

2026-08-03ocfs2: validate external xattr entries when reading metadataCen Zhang
ocfs2_validate_xattr_block() checks the xattr block header before the block reaches higher-level xattr users, but it does not verify that a non-indexed block's xh_count and entry offsets fit inside the block. Indexed buckets likewise reach list/get consumers after ECC without an entry-bounds check. Use the flat xattr entry validator for non-indexed external xattr blocks, and use a bucket-specific validator for indexed buckets at metadata read time. The bucket validator keeps the entry array bounded by the first bucket block while checking name/value offsets against the bucket block they target. Reject corrupted external xattr metadata before listxattr() or getxattr() can walk out-of-range entry arrays or name/value offsets.

2026-08-03ocfs2: validate inline xattrs during inode block validationCen Zhang
Patch series "ocfs2: validate xattr entry bounds", v7. This series validates OCFS2 xattr entry name/value bounds when xattr metadata is read and validated, before getxattr() or listxattr() can walk out-of-range entry arrays or offsets from corrupted metadata. This patch (of 2): ocfs2_validate_inode_block() verifies a dinode before OCFS2 users walk metadata from it, but inline xattr metadata is still checked only in operation-specific consumers. The existing ibody lookup helper validates inline header placement and entry count, but inode block validation does not reject entry name/value bounds. Add a flat xattr entry validator and call it from inode block validation for inline xattrs. Keep the operation paths on their existing header/count lookup checks; the full entry bounds check now runs when the inode block is validated at read time. Reject corrupted inline xattr metadata before ocfs2_xattr_ibody_get() or listxattr() can walk past the inline storage.

2026-08-03pps-gpio: remove dead capture_clear codeCalvin Owens
The capture_clear field is never set, and all code conditional on it being set has been unreachable since the platform data logic was removed from pps-gpio in ee89646619ba ("pps: clients: gpio: Get rid of legacy platform data").

2026-08-03pps: don't allow PPS_KC_BIND on removed devicesCalvin Owens
If userspace holds its file descriptor open, it can call PPS_KC_BIND on a device which has been unplugged, leaving pps_kc_hardpps_dev as a dangling pointer after close(). After that sequence, PPS_KC_BIND is broken until the system is rebooted, because the pointer comparison in pps_kc_bind() can never be true. calling pps_ktimer_init+0x0/0x1000 [pps_ktimer] @ 1081 initcall pps_ktimer_init+0x0/0x1000 [pps_ktimer] returned 0 after 811 usecs pps pps0: bound kernel consumer: edge=0x1 pps pps0: unbound kernel consumer on device removal pps pps0: bound kernel consumer: edge=0x1 calling pps_ktimer_init+0x0/0x1000 [pps_ktimer] @ 1085 initcall pps_ktimer_init+0x0/0x1000 [pps_ktimer] returned 0 after 340 usecs pps pps0: another kernel consumer is already bound Here is a short reproducer, which uses rmmod of the pps-ktimer testcase to simulate a device being unplugged: #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <linux/pps.h> #include <errno.h> #include <err.h> int main(void) { while (1) { int fd; if (system("insmod ./pps-ktimer.ko")) err(1, "insmod failed"); fd = open("/dev/pps0", O_RDWR); if (fd == -1) err(1, "open failed"); struct pps_bind_args args = { .tsformat = PPS_TSFMT_TSPEC, .edge = PPS_CAPTUREASSERT, .consumer = PPS_KC_HARDPPS, }; if (ioctl(fd, PPS_KC_BIND, &args)) err(1, "first PPS_KC_BIND failed"); if (system("rmmod pps-ktimer")) err(1, "rmmod failed"); if (ioctl(fd, PPS_KC_BIND, &args)) { if (errno != ENODEV) err(1, "second PPS_KC_BIND failed"); else puts("Got ENODEV, kernel is patched"); } close(fd); } } Fix this by setting a flag when the device is unplugged, returning -ENODEV from PPS_KC_BIND if the flag is set.

But I think it is still worth fixing, so buggy userspace code can't trigger the splat. Silence the splat by using timespec64_to_jiffies(), which hard limits the timeout to LONG_MAX jiffies. To be safe, explicitly preserve the -ETIMEDOUT return value userspace sees today if it passes a negative timeout. If you really squint, this is still a slight behavior change in that there are "denormalized" combinations of tv_sec and tv_nsec which used to work but will now return -ETIMEDOUT. I can't imagine anybody will care about that...

2026-08-03pps: pps-gpio: split IRQ handler into hardirq timestamper + threaded handlerMichael Byczkowski
Split the pps-gpio interrupt handler into a primary (hardirq) handler that captures the PPS timestamp at interrupt entry, and a threaded handler that processes the event. This produces the same two-part handler structure on both PREEMPT_RT and non-RT kernels. On non-RT kernels the threaded portion runs immediately after the primary, with no behavioral change compared to the previous single-handler implementation. On PREEMPT_RT, where interrupt handlers are force-threaded by default, the previous single-handler implementation captured the timestamp inside the threaded portion, after IRQ-thread scheduling delay. With the split, the timestamp is captured in true hardirq context as it is on non-RT kernels, eliminating a significant source of PPS jitter on RT systems.

2026-08-03ocfs2: fix hung task in orphan recoveryJiaming Zhang
A crafted OCFS2 image with corrupted orphan-directory extent metadata can make umount hang. During unmount, ocfs2_recovery_disable() waits for the ocfs2_complete_recovery work item to finish. The worker scans the orphan directory through ocfs2_queue_orphans() and ocfs2_dir_foreach(). If ocfs2_read_dir_block() fails on a corrupted directory block, ocfs2_dir_foreach_blk_el() skips the block and continues walking. On a badly corrupted directory this can keep orphan recovery busy for a long time, leaving umount blocked while flushing osb->ocfs2_wq. Return the read error immediately for full directory scans and propagate the error from ocfs2_dir_foreach(). When ocfs2_empty_dir() receives such an error, report the directory as non-empty so unlink/rmdir does not proceed on an unreadable directory.

2026-08-03ocfs2: validate lengths in dlm_mig_lockres_handlerBryam Vargas
A node receiving a DLM_MIG_LOCKRES message trusts several fields of the peer-supplied dlm_migratable_lockres without validation. num_locks and lockname_len are bounded only on the sending side, and the message is never checked to actually carry num_locks migratable_lock entries. As a result dlm_process_recovery_data() walks mres->ml[0..num_locks) past the kmalloc(data_len) copy of the message (an out-of-bounds read that ends in a BUG_ON panic), and dlm_init_lockres() copies lockname_len bytes into the fixed 32-byte o2dlm_lockname slab object (a heap out-of-bounds write). Both are reachable by any node in the domain. Validate these fields right after dlm_grab(), before anything uses them -- including the not-joined error path, which already prints mres->lockname with the unbounded lockname_len as a %.*s precision. Reject the message unless lockname_len <= DLM_LOCKID_NAME_MAX, num_locks <= DLM_MAX_MIGRATABLE_LOCKS (the bound the sender already asserts), and the payload is large enough to hold the claimed locks. Conforming recovery and migration messages are unaffected.

2026-08-03ocfs2: bound namelen in dlm_migrate_request_handlerBryam Vargas
Patch series "ocfs2/dlm: bound peer-controlled lengths in the o2dlm". The o2dlm receive handlers trust u8 length and count fields from the wire without bounding them, so a node in a DLM domain can corrupt or panic any other node with a malformed message. Three defects: - dlm_migrate_request_handler() passes migrate->namelen unchecked to dlm_init_mle(), which memcpy()s it into the 32-byte mname[] of an o2dlm_mle slab object: a heap out-of-bounds write of up to ~215 attacker-controlled bytes. - dlm_mig_lockres_handler() passes mres->lockname_len unchecked to dlm_init_lockres(), which memcpy()s it into the 32-byte o2dlm_lockname slab object: a heap out-of-bounds write of up to ~223 bytes. - the same handler trusts mres->num_locks without checking that the message is large enough to hold that many entries, so dlm_process_recovery_data() walks mres->ml[] past the kmalloc(data_len) copy and trips a BUG_ON (an out-of-bounds read ending in a panic). The other o2dlm receive handlers already reject an oversized name; the migration and recovery handlers have omitted it since the DLM was added (see the Fixes tags). Patch 1 bounds namelen; patch 2 validates lockname_len, num_locks, and the payload size. Conforming recovery and migration traffic is unaffected. o2net authenticates peers only by the DLM domain key, so any node that has joined the domain -- including a compromised or malicious member -- can send these messages. There is no local trigger; the attacker must already be a member of the cluster. Each sink was confirmed under KASAN with an out-of-tree module mirroring it exactly -- a kmem_cache/kmalloc of the real destination size, then the same unclamped memcpy/loop: slab-out-of-bounds Write for the two writes, Read for the recovery walk, and a panic. A userspace AddressSanitizer build faults identically under -m32 and -m64. Scrubbed logs are available on request. I reported this privately to security@kernel.org and the ocfs2 maintainers on 2026-06-20; with no response after the standard embargo period I am posting the fix publicly. I have no embargo requirement. This patch (of 2): A node receiving a DLM_MIGRATE_REQUEST message trusts the peer-supplied name length (migrate->namelen) without bounding it. dlm_init_mle() then copies that many bytes into the fixed DLM_LOCKID_NAME_MAX-byte mname[] array of an o2dlm_mle slab object, so a malformed message from a cluster peer overflows the slab object by up to ~215 bytes: a heap out-of-bounds write of attacker-controlled data, reachable by any node in the domain. Reject an oversized name, the way dlm_master_request_handler() and the other o2dlm receive handlers already do; the migration handler omits the check entirely. Conforming messages are unaffected.

2026-08-03tools/compiler: match glibc 2.42 definition of __attribute_const__Joy H.J. Lee
glibc 2.42 added __attribute_const__ to sys/cdefs.h: # define __attribute_const__ __attribute__ ((__const__)) GCC 15 warns when a macro is redefined to a different replacement list (-Wbuiltin-macro-redefined). Since host tool Makefiles (resolve_btfids, objtool) pass -Werror, this conflict becomes fatal. The warning is suppressed on standard native builds because GCC treats /usr/include as a system header path (-isystem), and macro-redefinition warnings from system headers are silently suppressed by GCC. It fires when glibc headers are on a regular include path (-I) instead, which is the case in cross-compilation setups such as NixOS, where the sysroot's glibc is passed explicitly via -I rather than -isystem. Per (C11 6.10.3), identical replacement lists are accepted silently. Match the glibc definition exactly, including the space before "((", so the redefinition is accepted without warning regardless of whether glibc headers are treated as system or non-system includes.

Not that I think this can actually hurt performance-wise, just it doesn't look clean to me; the copy is only needed in the unlikely case when the translation will actually change something. Defer it to the two cases where si_pid/si_uid are rewritten, and while at it add #ifdef's just for completeness.

2026-08-03signal: change sys_kill() to use SEND_SIG_NOINFOOleg Nesterov
prepare_kill_siginfo(PIDTYPE_TGID) fills si_code = SI_USER and sets si_pid/si_uid in the sender's namespace. Then send_signal_locked() translates si_pid/si_uid to the target's namespace. SEND_SIG_NOINFO exists precisely for the case when si_code == SI_USER and si_pid/si_uid are the sender's ids; this is exactly what sys_kill() does via prepare_kill_siginfo(PIDTYPE_TGID). Change sys_kill() to use it directly. SEND_SIG_NOINFO produces the same result: si_code = SI_USER, and __send_signal_locked() computes si_pid/si_uid directly in the target's namespace. The force computation is also the same: both check if the sender is visible in the target's pid namespace. This is just a cleanup and microoptimization (especially with [1]), this skips the has_si_pid_and_uid() block in send_signal_locked() and offloads the namespace translation logic to __send_signal_locked(SEND_SIG_NOINFO) which uses the simpler computations. NOTE: As a "side effect" this also fixes the kill(pid < 0, sig) case where send_signal_locked() rewrites si_pid/si_uid in the shared siginfo, corrupting it for subsequent recipients. But for other group senders like __kill_pgrp_info() we still need the fix from Bradley Morgan [1] who found this problem. TODO: kill prepare_kill_siginfo() and change other users to use SEND_SIG_NOINFO too. This needs trivial changes in __send_signal_locked() and TP_STORE_SIGINFO().

2026-08-03ocfs2: use inode_lock_nested() for orphan dir lockingDeepanshu Kartikey
PREEMPT_RT's rtmutex PI chain walker warns about a lock dependency cycle when inode_lock(orphan_dir_inode) is called while holding inode_lock(file_inode): ocfs2_file_write_iter() inode_lock(file_inode) [class 0] ocfs2_dio_end_io_write() ocfs2_del_inode_from_orphan() inode_lock(orphan_dir_inode) [class 0] <- warning! However this is a false positive. write_iter() is never called on a directory, and orphan_dir is always a directory, so these two locks can never actually conflict in practice. Fix by using inode_lock_nested(orphan_dir_inode, I_MUTEX_NONDIR2) in all three places where orphan_dir_inode is locked in namei.c, placing it in a separate lock class so the rtmutex PI chain walker understands these locks have distinct roles and does not warn about their ordering.

2026-08-03ocfs2/cluster: keep heartbeat local node stableCen Zhang
o2nm_node_local_store() handles local=0 by stopping o2net and setting cl_local_node to O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM, but it leaves cl_has_local set. That stale state makes o2nm_this_node() return 255, blocks a later local=1 attempt with -EBUSY, and can feed 255 to heartbeat users that call o2nm_this_node() dynamically. Clearing cl_has_local is required when the local node is reset. But heartbeat threads can still be running at that point. They pin the local node config item at startup, yet o2hb_do_disk_heartbeat() and thread teardown re-read o2nm_this_node() for the local slot and for o2nm_undepend_this_node(). Once local=0 has cleared the live local-node state, those dynamic reads return O2NM_MAX_NODES, which is also the invalid node number 255. Store the local node number in the heartbeat region when the region starts. Use that stable node for heartbeat slot writes/checks, negotiation messages, and the final configfs undepend. Stop the heartbeat loop when the current local node no longer matches the stored node, and clear cl_has_local together with cl_local_node in the local=0 path so nodemanager state matches node removal.

2026-08-03vhost-scsi: reject feature changes after endpointJia Jia
vhost_scsi_setup_vq_cmds() runs from VHOST_SCSI_SET_ENDPOINT and allocates each command's protection scatterlist array (prot_sgl) according to the acknowledged VIRTIO_SCSI_F_T10_PI bit. The command pools are not rebuilt when VHOST_SET_FEATURES changes that bit later. Although virtio feature bits must not change after feature negotiation, vhost_scsi_set_features() currently accepts such a request after the endpoint is active and updates acked_features. Enabling T10-PI after endpoint setup therefore leaves prot_sgl NULL while the I/O path follows the new feature bit. For a 129-page protection payload, vhost_scsi_mapal() passes the missing first chunk to sg_alloc_table_chained(): sg_alloc_table_chained(table, 129, first_chunk=NULL, nents_first_chunk=inline_sg_cnt) sg_pool_index() then hits: BUG_ON(nents > SG_CHUNK_SIZE); /* 129 > 128 */ The kernel reported the following call trace and register state: Call Trace: <TASK> ? __sg_alloc_table+0x1d8/0x250 ? __pfx_vhost_run_work_list+0x10/0x10 [vhost] sg_alloc_table_chained+0x59/0xf0 ? __pfx_sg_pool_alloc+0x10/0x10 ? vhost_scsi_calc_sgls.constprop.0+0x43/0x60 [vhost_scsi] vhost_scsi_handle_vq+0xf02/0x1700 [vhost_scsi] ? __pfx_vhost_scsi_handle_vq+0x10/0x10 [vhost_scsi] vhost_scsi_handle_kick+0x37/0x50 [vhost_scsi] vhost_run_work_list+0x8e/0xd0 [vhost] vhost_task_fn+0xe1/0x210 ret_from_fork+0x348/0x540 </TASK> RIP: 0010:0x4 CR2 = 0x4 RSP: 0018:ffffc90000dbf940 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: ffffffff82396810 RBX: ffff88811dc28b80 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000820 RDI: 0000000000000081 VHOST_F_LOG_ALL is a vhost-specific runtime feature and remains the only exception.

2026-08-03vhost-scsi: flush backend after device ioctlsJia Jia
vhost-scsi translates guest response descriptors into userspace iovecs when commands are submitted. Target-core completes those commands asynchronously, so VHOST_SET_MEM_TABLE can replace the memory table while an in-flight command still retains response iovecs translated through the old table. If the old mapping is reused after VHOST_SET_MEM_TABLE returns, command completion can write the response to an unrelated userspace object. Flush the vhost-scsi backend after vhost_dev_ioctl() handles a device ioctl. This waits for in-flight commands that can still use the old response iovecs before the ioctl returns.

2026-08-03vhost: reset the vring metadata cache on vring reconfigurationJun Yang
vq->meta_iotlb[] caches the vhost_iotlb_map that backs each vring metadata region, and iotlb_access_ok() returns early on a cache hit, taking the hit as proof that the region has already been validated: if (vhost_vq_meta_fetch(vq, addr, len, type)) return true; The cache is reset on VHOST_IOTLB_UPDATE and VHOST_IOTLB_INVALIDATE, on device IOTLB (re)initialisation and on vq reset, but not when VHOST_SET_VRING_ADDR replaces vq->desc, vq->avail and vq->used, nor when VHOST_SET_VRING_NUM changes the region sizes. With a device IOTLB attached both ioctls are accepted while the vq is live, and neither validates the addresses at ioctl time: vq_access_ok() and vq_log_used_access_ok() return true early because the addresses are GIOVAs, deferring validation to prefetch time. Once the cache has been populated that deferred validation no longer runs -- vq_meta_prefetch() hits the stale entry and returns true -- and vhost_vq_meta_fetch() keeps translating through the old mapping as map->addr + addr - map->start for an address the mapping no longer covers. vhost_copy_to_user() and vhost_copy_from_user() consume the result with __copy_to_user() and __copy_from_user(), which do not check it either, so a subsequent used ring update or descriptor fetch accesses memory outside the region the IOTLB actually maps. Reset the metadata cache whenever the vring is reconfigured, so the new addresses are pushed back through iotlb_access_ok()'s slow path.

2026-08-03vhost-scsi: Validate T10 PI scatterlist countsLinfeng Sun
When T10 PI is negotiated, vhost-scsi splits protection bytes from the data iterator before mapping the request scatterlists. A malformed request can claim protection bytes that cover or exceed the full payload length. The former leaves no data bytes to map, while the latter underflows exp_data_len before advancing the iterator. Both cases can let a zero data SGL count reach sg_alloc_table_chained(), which triggers BUG_ON(!nents). Reject protection lengths that cover or exceed the payload before subtracting prot_bytes and advancing the iterator. Also propagate negative errors from the protection SGL calculation before calling the allocator, matching the data SGL path.

2026-08-03selftests: ublk: add rotating auto_buf index regression testYang Xiuwei
Batch AUTO_BUF_REG COMMIT must unregister the old auto_buf index before storing the next one. Fixed per-tag indexing (A == B) masks bugs that clear after overwriting io->buf. Add kublk --rotate_auto_buf so each tag alternates between two sparse buffer indices, and test_batch_04.sh to exercise that path. Without the driver fix, the request ref stays stuck and I/O hangs; the test uses a short timeout and kills the ublk daemon to recover. With the fix, a small write completes quickly.

2026-08-03ublk: lift checks out of ublk_{,un}map_io()Caleb Sander Mateos
ublk_map_io() and ublk_unmap_io() are no-ops for ublk devices that enable user copy or zero copy, as well as for requests without data to copy in the given direction. However, the implementation is a bit convoluted, returning the full request data length and relying on the caller to check the return value against the request length. UBLK_F_SHMEM_ZC recently added branches to skip the ublk_{,un}map_io() call for I/Os using a shared-memory buffer. This is a more logical place for the device need_map and the ublk_need_{,un}map_req() checks, so move them there from ublk_{,un}map_io(). Checking these conditions early also skips the expensive pointer-chasing for the ublk_iod_is_shmem_zc() check in __ublk_complete_rq() for the common case of a ublk device using user copy or zero copy. Drop the req_op() filter in __ublk_complete_rq(), as it's redundant with the ublk_need_unmap_req() check.

2026-08-03ublk: add UBLK_F_IO_DESC_SIZECaleb Sander Mateos
ublk passes the parameters of incoming I/O in memory shared between the kernel ublk driver and userspace ublk server in struct ublksrv_io_desc. The size of this struct is currently fixed to 24 bytes, which has been an obstacle to extending it with additional fields [1]. Additionally, with multiple ublk server threads handling I/Os from the same ublk queue (possible with UBLK_F_PER_IO_DAEMON or UBLK_F_BATCH_IO), false sharing results from adjacent io_descs sharing the same cache line. Add a ublk feature UBLK_F_IO_DESC_SIZE to allow a ublk server to override the size of each io_desc. The size must be at least 24 and a multiple of 8 to store a properly-aligned struct ublksrv_io_desc. It's also limited to a maximum of 256, though this bound could be lifted in the future. The struct ublksrv_io_desc is located at the beginning of each io_desc and the remainder is padding. The mmap() performed for each queue must have a length of queue_depth * io_desc_size rounded up to the page size. The mmap() offset must be q_id * UBLK_MAX_QUEUE_DEPTH * io_desc_size, also rounded up to the page size.
