ext4: fix potential null deref in ext4_mb_init()
In ext4_mb_init(), ext4_mb_avg_fragment_size_destroy() may be called
when sbi->s_mb_avg_fragment_size remains uninitialized (e.g., if groupinfo
slab cache allocation fails). Since ext4_mb_avg_fragment_size_destroy()
lacks null pointer checking, this leads to a null pointer dereference.

scsi: ufs: core: Fix data race in CPU latency PM QoS request handling
The cpu_latency_qos_add/remove/update_request interfaces lack internal
synchronization by design, requiring the caller to ensure thread safety.
The current implementation relies on the 'pm_qos_enabled' flag, which is
insufficient to prevent concurrent access and cannot serve as a proper
synchronization mechanism. This has led to data races and list
corruption issues.
A typical race condition call trace is:
[Thread A]
ufshcd_pm_qos_exit()
--> cpu_latency_qos_remove_request()
--> cpu_latency_qos_apply();
--> pm_qos_update_target()
--> plist_del <--(1) delete plist node
--> memset(req, 0, sizeof(*req));
--> hba->pm_qos_enabled = false;
[Thread B]
ufshcd_devfreq_target
--> ufshcd_devfreq_scale
--> ufshcd_scale_clks
--> ufshcd_pm_qos_update <--(2) pm_qos_enabled is true
--> cpu_latency_qos_update_request
--> pm_qos_update_target
--> plist_del <--(3) plist node use-after-free
Introduces a dedicated mutex to serialize PM QoS operations, preventing
data races and ensuring safe access to PM QoS resources, including sysfs
interface reads. |

wifi: ath12k: Fix peer lookup in ath12k_dp_mon_rx_deliver_msdu()
In ath12k_dp_mon_rx_deliver_msdu(), peer lookup fails because
rxcb->peer_id is not updated with a valid value. This is expected
in monitor mode, where RX frames bypass the regular RX
descriptor path that typically sets rxcb->peer_id.
As a result, the peer is NULL, and link_id and link_valid fields
in the RX status are not populated. This leads to a WARN_ON in
mac80211 when it receives data frame from an associated station
with invalid link_id.
Fix this potential issue by using ppduinfo->peer_id, which holds
the correct peer id for the received frame. This ensures that the
peer is correctly found and the associated link metadata is updated
accordingly.

ASoC: Intel: sof_sdw: Prevent jump to NULL add_sidecar callback
In create_sdw_dailink() check that sof_end->codec_info->add_sidecar
is not NULL before calling it.
The original code assumed that if include_sidecar is true, the codec
on that link has an add_sidecar callback. But there could be other
codecs on the same link that do not have an add_sidecar callback. |

dm: fix NULL pointer dereference in __dm_suspend()
There is a race condition between dm device suspend and table load that
can lead to null pointer dereference. The issue occurs when suspend is

dm_stop_queue / dm_wait_for_completion
=> q->tag_set NULL pointer! (2)
=> q->tag_set = set; (3)
Fix this by checking if a valid table (map) exists before performing
request-based suspend and waiting for target I/O. When map is NULL,
skip these table-dependent suspend steps.
Even when map is NULL, no I/O can reach any target because there is
no table loaded; I/O submitted in this state will fail early in the
DM layer. Skipping the table-dependent suspend logic in this case
is safe and avoids NULL pointer dereferences. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: hisilicon/qm - request reserved interrupt for virtual function
The device interrupt vector 3 is an error interrupt for
physical function and a reserved interrupt for virtual function.
However, the driver has not registered the reserved interrupt for
virtual function. When allocating interrupts, the number of interrupts
is allocated based on powers of two, which includes this interrupt.
When the system enables GICv4 and the virtual function passthrough
to the virtual machine, releasing the interrupt in the driver
triggers a warning.
The WARNING report is:
WARNING: CPU: 62 PID: 14889 at arch/arm64/kvm/vgic/vgic-its.c:852 its_free_ite+0x94/0xb4
Therefore, register a reserved interrupt for VF and set the
IRQF_NO_AUTOEN flag to avoid that warning. |

issue in strcmp().
The bug can be reproduced w/ below scripts:
mkfs.f2fs -f /dev/vdb
mount -t f2fs -o usrquota /dev/vdb /mnt/f2fs
quotacheck -uc /mnt/f2fs/
umount /mnt/f2fs
mount -t f2fs -o usrjquota=aquota.user,jqfmt=vfsold /dev/vdb /mnt/f2fs
mount -t f2fs -o remount,usrjquota=,jqfmt=vfsold /dev/vdb /mnt/f2fs
umount /mnt/f2fs
So, before old_qname and new_qname comparison, we need to check whether
they are all valid pointers, fix it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/pwrctrl: Fix double cleanup on devm_add_action_or_reset() failure
When devm_add_action_or_reset() fails, it calls the passed cleanup
function. Hence the caller must not repeat that cleanup.
Replace the "goto err_regulator_free" by the actual freeing, as there
will never be a need again for a second user of this label. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Disable bottom softirqs as part of spin_lock_irq() on PREEMPT_RT
snd_pcm_group_lock_irq() acquires a spinlock_t and disables interrupts
via spin_lock_irq(). This also implicitly disables the handling of
softirqs such as TIMER_SOFTIRQ.
On PREEMPT_RT softirqs are preemptible and spin_lock_irq() does not
disable them. That means a timer can be invoked during spin_lock_irq()
on the same CPU. Due to synchronisations reasons local_bh_disable() has
a per-CPU lock named softirq_ctrl.lock which synchronizes individual
softirq against each other.
syz-bot managed to trigger a lockdep report where softirq_ctrl.lock is
acquired in hrtimer_cancel() in addition to hrtimer_run_softirq(). This
is a possible deadlock.
The softirq_ctrl.lock can not be made part of spin_lock_irq() as this
would lead to too much synchronisation against individual threads on the
system. To avoid the possible deadlock, softirqs must be manually
disabled before the lock is acquired.
Disable softirqs before the lock is acquired on PREEMPT_RT. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: dont report verifier bug for missing bpf_scc_visit on speculative path
Syzbot generated a program that triggers a verifier_bug() call in
maybe_exit_scc(). maybe_exit_scc() assumes that, when called for a
state with insn_idx in some SCC, there should be an instance of struct
bpf_scc_visit allocated for that SCC. Turns out the assumption does
not hold for speculative execution paths. See example in the next
patch.
maybe_scc_exit() is called from update_branch_counts() for states that
reach branch count of zero, meaning that path exploration for a
particular path is finished. Path exploration can finish in one of
three ways:
a. Verification error is found. In this case, update_branch_counts()
is called only for non-speculative paths.
b. Top level BPF_EXIT is reached. Such instructions are never a part of
an SCC, so compute_scc_callchain() in maybe_scc_exit() will return
false, and maybe_scc_exit() will return early.
c. A checkpoint is reached and matched. Checkpoints are created by
is_state_visited(), which calls maybe_enter_scc(), which allocates
bpf_scc_visit instances for checkpoints within SCCs.
Hence, for non-speculative symbolic execution paths, the assumption
still holds: if maybe_scc_exit() is called for a state within an SCC,
bpf_scc_visit instance must exist.
This patch removes the verifier_bug() call for speculative paths. |

f2fs: fix to avoid migrating empty section
It reports a bug from device w/ zufs:
F2FS-fs (dm-64): Inconsistent segment (173822) type [1, 0] in SSA and SIT
F2FS-fs (dm-64): Stopped filesystem due to reason: 4
Thread A Thread B
- f2fs_expand_inode_data
- f2fs_allocate_pinning_section
- f2fs_gc_range
- do_garbage_collect w/ segno #x
- writepage
- f2fs_allocate_data_block
- new_curseg
- allocate segno #x
The root cause is: fallocate on pinning file may race w/ block allocation
as above, result in do_garbage_collect() from fallocate() may migrate
segment which is just allocated by a log, the log will update segment type
in its in-memory structure, however GC will get segment type from on-disk
SSA block, once segment type changes by log, we can detect such
inconsistency, then shutdown filesystem.
In this case, on-disk SSA shows type of segno #173822 is 1 (SUM_TYPE_NODE),
however segno #173822 was just allocated as data type segment, so in-memory
SIT shows type of segno #173822 is 0 (SUM_TYPE_DATA).
Change as below to fix this issue:
- check whether current section is empty before gc
- add sanity checks on do_garbage_collect() to avoid any race case, result
in migrating segment used by log.
- btw, it fixes misc issue in printed logs: "SSA and SIT" -> "SIT and SSA". |

Soft lockup is not triggered with THP or base page because there is
cond_resched() called for each PMD size.
Although the soft lockup was triggered by MTE, it should be not MTE
specific. The other processing which takes long time in the loop may
trigger soft lockup too.
So add cond_resched() for hugetlb to avoid soft lockup. |

ext4: verify orphan file size is not too big
In principle orphan file can be arbitrarily large. However orphan replay
needs to traverse it all and we also pin all its buffers in memory. Thus
filesystems with absurdly large orphan files can lead to big amounts of
memory consumed. Limit orphan file size to a sane value and also use
kvmalloc() for allocating array of block descriptor structures to avoid
large order allocations for sane but large orphan files. |

mailbox: zynqmp-ipi: Fix out-of-bounds access in mailbox cleanup loop
The cleanup loop was starting at the wrong array index, causing
out-of-bounds access.
Start the loop at the correct index for zero-indexed arrays to prevent
accessing memory beyond the allocated array bounds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/kvm: Force legacy PCI hole to UC when overriding MTRRs for TDX/SNP
When running as an SNP or TDX guest under KVM, force the legacy PCI hole,
i.e. memory between Top of Lower Usable DRAM and 4GiB, to be mapped as UC
via a forced variable MTRR range.
In most KVM-based setups, legacy devices such as the HPET and TPM are
enumerated via ACPI. ACPI enumeration includes a Memory32Fixed entry, and
optionally a SystemMemory descriptor for an OperationRegion, e.g. if the
device needs to be accessed via a Control Method.
If a SystemMemory entry is present, then the kernel's ACPI driver will
auto-ioremap the region so that it can be accessed at will. However, the
ACPI spec doesn't provide a way to enumerate the memory type of
SystemMemory regions, i.e. there's no way to tell software that a region
must be mapped as UC vs. WB, etc. As a result, Linux's ACPI driver always
maps SystemMemory regions using ioremap_cache(), i.e. as WB on x86.
The dedicated device drivers however, e.g. the HPET driver and TPM driver,
want to map their associated memory as UC or WC, as accessing PCI devices
using WB is unsupported.
On bare metal and non-CoCO, the conflicting requirements "work" as firmware
configures the PCI hole (and other device memory) to be UC in the MTRRs.
So even though the ACPI mappings request WB, they are forced to UC- in the
kernel's tracking due to the kernel properly handling the MTRR overrides,
and thus are compatible with the drivers' requested WC/UC-.
With force WB MTRRs on SNP and TDX guests, the ACPI mappings get their
requested WB if the ACPI mappings are established before the dedicated
driver code attempts to initialize the device. E.g. if acpi_init()
runs before the corresponding device driver is probed, ACPI's WB mapping
will "win", and result in the driver's ioremap() failing because the
existing WB mapping isn't compatible with the requested WC/UC-.
E.g. when a TPM is emulated by the hypervisor (ignoring the security
implications of relying on what is allegedly an untrusted entity to store
measurements), the TPM driver will request UC and fail:
[ 1.730459] ioremap error for 0xfed40000-0xfed45000, requested 0x2, got 0x0
[ 1.732780] tpm_tis MSFT0101:00: probe with driver tpm_tis failed with error -12
Note, the '0x2' and '0x0' values refer to "enum page_cache_mode", not x86's
memtypes (which frustratingly are an almost pure inversion; 2 == WB, 0 == UC).
E.g. tracing mapping requests for TPM TIS yields:
Mapping TPM TIS with req_type = 0
