| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack: defer invalid log until after unlock
TCP and SCTP conntrack paths can emit invalid-packet logs while ct->lock
is still held.
When invalid logging is routed to nfnetlink_log and conntrack export is
enabled, the log path can re-enter conntrack netlink glue and dump the
same conntrack again. Protocol attribute dumping may take ct->lock, so
logging while holding that lock can deadlock.
Defer the TCP invalid logs by storing only the minimal log context while
ct->lock is held and emitting the log after unlocking. Also make the TCP
timeout-lowering invalid path return whether a log is needed, then emit
that log after unlocking.
Do the same for the SCTP invalid state-transition log that can be reached
while ct->lock is held.
Add a lockdep assertion to nf_ct_l4proto_log_invalid() so future callers
that log invalid conntracks while holding ct->lock are caught outside TCP
and SCTP as well. |

super: fix emergency thaw deadlock on frozen block devices
do_thaw_all_callback() calls bdev_thaw() while holding sb->s_umount
exclusively. If the block device was frozen via bdev_freeze() dropping
the last block layer freeze reference calls fs_bdev_thaw() which
reacquires s_umount:
do_thaw_all_callback(sb)
super_lock_excl(sb) # holds sb->s_umount
bdev_thaw(sb->s_bdev)
mutex_lock(&bdev->bd_fsfreeze_mutex)
# bd_fsfreeze_count drops 1 -> 0
bd_holder_ops->thaw == fs_bdev_thaw
get_bdev_super(bdev)
bdev_super_lock(bdev, true)
super_lock(sb, true)
down_write(&sb->s_umount) # same task: deadlock
The emergency thaw worker deadlocks against itself holding both
s_umount and bd_fsfreeze_mutex. That fscks any subsequent unmount,
freeze, or thaw of that filesystem and block device.

bdev_super_lock() even documents the violated requirement with
lockdep_assert_not_held(&sb->s_umount).
Acquiring bd_fsfreeze_mutex under s_umount also inverts the
bd_fsfreeze_mutex vs. s_umount ordering established by
bdev_{freeze,thaw}() and can thus ABBA against a concurrent block-layer
freeze even when the recursive path isn't hit.
Fix this by not holding s_umount around the bdev_thaw() loop at all. Pin
the superblock with an active reference instead as
filesystems_freeze_callback() does. The active reference keeps the
superblock from being shut down and so ->s_bdev stays valid without
holding s_umount. The block-layer-held freeze is dropped by
fs_bdev_thaw() with FREEZE_MAY_NEST | FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE exactly as
a regular unfreeze would and thaw_super_locked() handles
filesystem-level freezes as before.
The emergency thaw path has deadlocked like this in one form or
another for a long long time but the current exclusively-held
shape dates back to commit [1] where thaw_bdev() already ended in
thaw_super() with s_umount held by do_thaw_all_callback(). |

audit: fix recursive locking deadlock in audit_dupe_exe()
A deadlock occurs in the audit subsystem when duplicating
executable-related rules.
When a file is moved (e.g., via do_renameat2()), the VFS layer locks
the parent directory (I_MUTEX_PARENT), which synchronously triggers an
fsnotify_move event. If an existing executable audit rule matches the
file being moved, the audit subsystem catches this event and calls
audit_dupe_exe() to duplicate the watch and update the rule. Then,
audit_alloc_mark() would call kern_path_parent() to resolve the path,
leading to a blind attempt to acquire the exact same I_MUTEX_PARENT lock
already held by the task, resulting in the following recursive locking
deadlock:

md/raid5: avoid R5_Overlap races while breaking stripe batches
KCSAN report a race in break_stripe_batch_list() vs. raid5_make_request()
on sh->dev[i].flags (plain word write vs. atomic bit op)..
and .. one possible scenario is:
CPU1 CPU2
break_stripe_batch_list(sh1)
-> handle sh2
-> lock(sh2)
-> sh2->batch_head = NULL
-> unlock(sh2)
-> test_and_clear_bit(R5_Overlap, sh2->dev[i].flags)
-> wake_up_bit(sh2->dev[i].flags)
raid5_make_request()
-> add_all_stripe_bios(sh2)
-> lock(sh2)
-> stripe_bio_overlaps(sh2) returns true
batch_head is NULL, so new bio overlap
exist bio on sh2 -> true
-> set_bit(R5_Overlap, sh2->dev[i].flags)
-> unlock(sh2)
-> wait_on_bit(sh2->dev[i].flags)
-> sh2->dev[i].flags = sh1->dev[i].flags & ~R5_Overlap
No wait_up_bit(), CPU2 could be wait_on_bit() forever...
Fix by :
- Expand the protect zone.
- Use batch_head's device flag's snaphot when no held head_sh->stripe_lock.
- Move sh/head_sh->batch_head = NULL to the end of protected zone , and ,
any concurrent add_all_stripe_bios() grabs sh->stripe_lock now either:
- see batch_head != null, and , is rejected by stripe_bio_overlaps()
under the lock (no R5_Overlap wait ) , or ,
- sees batch_head == NULL, only after dev[i].flags has already been
set and the prior R5_Overlap waiters worken.

i2c: jz4780: Cache host clock rate at probe to prevent CCF prepare_lock deadlock
Fix a severe AB/BA deadlock between the Common Clock Framework (CCF)
and the I2C adapter lock, which triggers when an I2C-controlled clock
generator client (like the Si5351) is registered or modified under the CCF.
During an i2c client clock (generator) frequency change, the CCF acquires its global
'prepare_lock' mutex and the driver calls i2c_transfer() to update the client's
chip registers, stalling for the adapter's I2C bus lock.
Concurrently, an independent, parallel transfer on the same bus (e.g., a GPIO
expander handling LEDs) can hold the I2C adapter lock. Inside this parallel
transfer path, jz4780_i2c_set_speed() calls clk_get_rate() on the host
controller's input clock to calculate bus timings. This call attempts to acquire
the blocked CCF 'prepare_lock', creating a circular dependency that freezes
the system.
The jz4780 host controller clock itself is static and never changes at runtime.
However, calling clk_get_rate() inside the active transfer path introduces
an unnecessary dependency on the CCF internal locks.
Eliminate this synchronous clk_get_rate() call from the active transfer
path by caching the static host peripheral clock rate once - inside the private
jz4780_i2c structure during jz4780_i2c_probe(). Update jz4780_i2c_set_speed()
to use this cached value, safely decoupling active I2C transactions from the
CCF internal locks without any risk of stale timings.

ext4: validate donor file superblock early in EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT
Reject the EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl early if the donor file does not
belong to the same superblock as the original file. Currently, this
validation is performed inside ext4_move_extents() by
mext_check_validity(), but only after lock_two_nondirectories() has
already acquired the inode locks. When the donor fd refers to a file
on a different filesystem (e.g., overlayfs), this late validation
creates a circular lock dependency:
CPU0 (overlayfs write) CPU1 (ext4 ioctl)
---- ----
inode_lock(ovl_inode)
mnt_want_write_file(filp)
sb_start_write(ext4_sb) [sb_writers]
backing_file_write_iter()
vfs_iter_write(real_file)
file_start_write(real_file)
sb_start_write(ext4_sb) [blocked by freeze]
lock_two_nondirectories()
inode_lock(ovl_inode) [blocked]
With a concurrent freeze operation holding sb_writers write side, this
forms a deadlock cycle: CPU0 waits for freeze to complete, freeze waits
for CPU1's sb_writers reader to exit, CPU1 waits for CPU0's inode lock.
Since EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT exchanges physical extents between two files,
it fundamentally requires both files to reside on the same ext4
filesystem. Moving the superblock check before any lock acquisition
is both semantically correct and eliminates the circular dependency
by ensuring that cross-filesystem donor fds are rejected before
sb_writers or inode locks are taken. |

btrfs: zoned: fix deadlock waiting for ticket during data relocation
When performing data relocation on a zoned filesystem, BTRFS can deadlock
in handle_reserve_tickets(). The relocation process is waiting on a space
reservation ticket that can never be fulfilled, because the relocation
itself is the operation responsible for freeing up that space.
Fix this by introducing a new flush state,
BTRFS_RESERVE_FLUSH_ZONED_RELOCATION, specifically for data chunk
allocation during zoned relocation. Like
BTRFS_RESERVE_FLUSH_FREE_SPACE_INODE, this state uses
priority_reclaim_data_space() instead of the normal flushing path, which
avoids re-entering the relocation code and breaking the deadlock cycle.
In btrfs_alloc_data_chunk_ondemand(), select this new flush state when the
inode belongs to a data relocation root on a zoned filesystem. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix deadlock cloning inline extent when using flushoncommit
In commit b48c980b6a7e ("btrfs: fix deadlock between reflink and
transaction commit when using flushoncommit") a deadlock was fixed
between reflinks and transaction commits when the fs is mounted with the
flushoncommit option. This happened when we had to copy an inline extent's
data to the destination file. However the issue was fixed only for the
case where the destination offset is 0, it missed the case when the offset
is greater than zero.
Fix this by ensuring we get i_size update whenever we copied an inline
extent's data into the destination file.

Fix this by returning early from uvc_status_stop if we are currently in
the work function. flush_status now remains false until uvc_status_start
is called again, ensuring that uvc_ctrl_status_event_work won't resubmit
the URB. |

scsi: mpi3mr: Fix potential deadlock in mpi3mr_fault_uevent_emit
mpi3mr_fault_uevent_emit() runs from the fault watchdog and reset paths
where host I/O may already be blocked. GFP_KERNEL allocations here, both
the local kzalloc_obj() and the ones inside kobject_uevent_env() itself,
can trigger reclaim that waits on that blocked I/O and deadlock.
Use memalloc_noio_save()/restore() to cover the whole call instead of
just the local allocation. |

btrfs: zoned: fix deadlock between metadata writeback and transaction commit
When writing out metadata extent buffers in a zoned filesystem,
btree_writepages() holds fs_info->zoned_meta_io_lock across the whole
writeback loop, including the call to btrfs_check_meta_write_pointer() ->
check_bg_is_active().
For the tree-log block group, check_bg_is_active() may fail to activate
the zone and fall back to btrfs_zone_finish_one_bg() to free an active
zone. That path waits for the running transaction to commit while still
holding zoned_meta_io_lock, but the committer needs that same lock to
write out the tree extents, so the two tasks deadlock:
Task A (kworker, metadata writeback) Task B (fsstress, transaction commit)
------------------------------------ -------------------------------------
wb_workfn() btrfs_commit_transaction(T)
btree_writepages() btrfs_write_and_wait_transaction()
btrfs_zoned_meta_io_lock() btrfs_write_marked_extents()
btrfs_check_meta_write_pointer() btree_writepages()
check_bg_is_active() [treelog_bg] btrfs_zoned_meta_io_lock()
btrfs_zone_finish_one_bg() <blocks on zoned_meta_io_lock,
btrfs_zone_finish() held by Task A>
do_zone_finish()
btrfs_inc_block_group_ro()
btrfs_wait_for_commit()
<blocks waiting for commit
of transaction T, done by
Task B>
The sibling branch in check_bg_is_active() already drops zoned_meta_io_lock
around do_zone_finish() for this exact reason. Do the same in the tree-log
branch: release the lock around btrfs_zone_finish_one_bg() and re-acquire
it afterwards. The lock only protects fs_info->active_{meta,system}_bg,
which this branch does not touch, and ctx->zoned_bg keeps a reference to
the block group across the unlock, so nothing is lost while the lock
is dropped.
This hang occasionally reproduces with fstests generic/475 on a zoned
btrfs filesystem. |

dmaengine: idxd: fix fdev setup failure cleanup in idxd_cdev_open()
The failed_dev_add and failed_dev_name paths drop the file-device
reference while wq->wq_lock is still held. If put_device(fdev) drops the
last reference, idxd_file_dev_release() runs synchronously and tries to
take wq->wq_lock again, deadlocking.
Those paths also fall through into the later ctx cleanup labels even
though idxd_file_dev_release() owns that cleanup and frees ctx. This can
make idxd_xa_pasid_remove(ctx) and kfree(ctx) operate on a freed context.
Move idxd_wq_get() before file-device setup can fail, since the release
callback always calls idxd_wq_put(). Then unlock wq->wq_lock before
put_device(fdev) and return directly from the file-device setup failure
path, leaving ctx cleanup to the release callback. |

qede: sync udp_tunnel ports outside qede_lock in the recovery path
A TX timeout on a qede NIC that has VXLAN/GENEVE tunnel ports
configured wedges the rtnetlink control plane of the whole machine:
NETDEV WATCHDOG: ens6f1 (qede): transmit queue 2 timed out 10226 ms
[qede_tx_timeout:586(ens6f1)]TX timeout on queue 2!
[qede_recovery_handler:2665(ens6f0)]Starting a recovery process
The recovery path deadlocks on the driver's own mutex:
qede_sp_task
rtnl_lock()
mutex_lock(&edev->qede_lock) <- taken
qede_recovery_handler
qede_load
udp_tunnel_nic_reset_ntf
__udp_tunnel_nic_device_sync
info->sync_table == qede_udp_tunnel_sync
mutex_lock(&edev->qede_lock) <- same task: deadlock
The mutex is not recursive, so the kworker blocks on itself with
rtnl_lock held, and neither lock is ever released. Every task that
calls rtnl_lock() afterwards (ip, ovs-vswitchd, lldpad, IPv6
addrconf, sshd) blocks forever while the node still answers ping.
In a vmcore from an affected production node rtnl_mutex.owner
decodes to the very kworker blocked at the innermost mutex_lock()
above.
Re-sync the tunnel ports from qede_sp_task() after the internal lock
is dropped, still under rtnl_lock as the udp_tunnel API requires.
This mirrors qede_open(), which calls udp_tunnel_nic_reset_ntf()
under rtnl without the internal lock.
qede_recovery_handler() now returns whether it has successfully
reloaded an open device, and the caller re-syncs the ports only in
that case. This keeps the old gating exactly: a device that was down
or a failed recovery returns false, as those paths never reached the
udp_tunnel_nic_reset_ntf() call before either.
This was the only user of the qede_lock()/qede_unlock() helpers, so
remove them. |

scsi: libsas: Fix HA resume deadlock and hisi_sas disk-wake race
Commit fbefe22811c3 ("scsi: libsas: Don't always drain event workqueue
for HA resume") introduced sas_resume_ha_no_sync() to avoid a deadlock:
the PHYE_RESUME_TIMEOUT handler, running on the HA event workqueue,
calls sas_deform_port() -> sas_destruct_devices(), which removes SCSI
devices and waits for the host to become runtime-active. But the host
cannot resume until sas_resume_ha() -> sas_drain_work() returns, and the
drain is blocked on that very handler.
However skipping the drain reintroduces a race: hisi_sas returns from
resume before all PHY UP work and libsas discovery work finish. The
controller may then autosuspend while disks are still waking up. The
disks issue IO to a suspended controller, the IO fails, and the disks
get disabled.
Fix the deadlock at its source by moving the PHYE_RESUME_TIMEOUT
notification to after sas_drain_work(). By then the host resume is about
to complete, so device removal through device_link no longer blocks on
the resume and the cycle is broken.
With the deadlock gone, restore sas_resume_ha() (the draining variant)
in hisi_sas and remove sas_resume_ha_no_sync().
The reorder is safe for the other libsas consumers (isci, pm8001,
aic94xx, mvsas). During suspend, sas_suspend_devices() calls
sas_notify_lldd_dev_gone() for each device, which sets dev->lldd_dev to
NULL. When scsi_unblock_requests re-enables I/O in resume, any I/O to a
timed-out phy's disk is immediately rejected by the LLDD before reaching
hardware: isci returns SAS_DEVICE_UNKNOWN (mapped to DID_BAD_TARGET),
and pm8001 returns SAS_PHY_DOWN (mapped to DID_NO_CONNECT). Both
complete directly via scsi_done() without entering SCSI EH. This is
identical in both the old and new ordering since lldd_dev_gone runs
during suspend, before resume. The reorder only affects when the
PHYE_RESUME_TIMEOUT handler runs (synchronized by sas_drain_work()
vs. asynchronous after resume returns), not whether I/O can reach the
device. aic94xx and mvsas do not register any PM ops and never reach
this code path. |

ntfs: skip extent mft records in writeback to prevent deadlock
This patch fixes the ABBA deadlock between extent_lock and extent
mrec_lock triggered by xfstests generic/113, that occurs since the commit
6994acf33bae ("ntfs: use base mft_no when looking up base inode for
extent record").
Path A (inode writeback):
VFS writeback
-> ntfs_write_inode()
-> __ntfs_write_inode()
-> mutex_lock(&ni->extent_lock)
-> mutex_lock(&tni->mrec_lock)
Path B (MFT folio writeback):
VFS writeback of $MFT dirty folios
-> ntfs_mft_writepages()
-> ntfs_write_mft_block()
-> ntfs_may_write_mft_record()
-> holds one extent mrec_lock from a previous iteration
-> tries to acquire another base inode extent_lock
By removing all extent_lock and extent mrec_lock acquisition from the MFT
folio writeback path, the ABBA lock ordering is eliminated:
Path A: __ntfs_write_inode(): extent_lock -> mrec_lock
Path B (removed): ntfs_write_mft_block(): mrec_lock -> extent_lock
Path B is always redundant for extent records because:
1. mark_mft_record_dirty(ext_ni) does NOT dirty the MFT folio.
It only sets NInoDirty(ext_ni) and marks the base VFS inode dirty
via __mark_inode_dirty(I_DIRTY_DATASYNC), which triggers Path A.
Therefore, normal extent modifications never create a situation where
the MFT folio is dirty and Path B is not scheduled.
2. The MFT folio only gets dirtied via ntfs_mft_mark_dirty() inside
ntfs_mft_record_alloc(). But all identified callers in attrib.c
(ntfs_attr_add, ntfs_attr_record_move_away,
ntfs_attr_make_non_resident, ntfs_attr_record_resize) follow through
with mark_mft_record_dirty(), which triggers Path A to write the
complete record.
3. ntfs_evict_big_inode() calls ntfs_commit_inode() before freeing extent
inodes, ensuring all dirty extents are flushed via Path A before the
base inode leaves the icache. |

accel/amdxdna: Prevent PM resume deadlock in hwctx_sync_debug_bo()
amdxdna_hwctx_sync_debug_bo() invokes the hardware hwctx_sync_debug_bo()
callback while holding xdna->dev_lock.
The callback may call amdxdna_cmd_submit(), which in turn calls
amdxdna_pm_resume_get(). If the device is suspended,
amdxdna_pm_resume_get() may synchronously execute amdxdna_pm_resume(),
which also acquires xdna->dev_lock, resulting in a deadlock.
Avoid the deadlock by calling amdxdna_pm_resume_get() before holding
xdna->dev_lock in both amdxdna_hwctx_sync_debug_bo() and
amdxdna_drm_config_hwctx_ioctl() |

ntfs: avoid heap allocation for free-cluster readahead state
get_nr_free_clusters() allocates a temporary file_ra_state before it
publishes the precomputed free cluster count, sets NVolFreeClusterKnown(),
and wakes vol->free_waitq. If that allocation fails, the worker returns
without setting the flag or waking waiters, so callers waiting for the free
count can block indefinitely.
The readahead state is only used synchronously while scanning the bitmap.
Keep it on the stack and pass it by address to the readahead helper. This
eliminates the early allocation failure path instead of adding a special
case that publishes a conservative count and wakes the waitqueue.
Zero-initialize the on-stack state because file_ra_state_init() only sets
ra_pages and prev_pos.
Apply the same treatment to __get_nr_free_mft_records(), which scans the
MFT bitmap with the same short-lived readahead state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: fail attrlist updates when the superblock is inactive
generic_shutdown_super() clears SB_ACTIVE before evicting cached inodes.
If eviction selects the fake inode for a base inode's unnamed
$ATTRIBUTE_LIST attribute, ntfs_evict_big_inode() drops the fake inode's
reference on the base inode while the fake inode is still hashed and marked
I_FREEING.
That iput can synchronously write back the base inode. The writeback path
may update mapping pairs and call ntfs_attrlist_update(), which
unconditionally calls ntfs_attr_iget() for the same $ATTRIBUTE_LIST fake
inode. VFS then finds the I_FREEING inode and waits for eviction to finish,
but the current task is still inside that eviction path, causing a
self-deadlock in find_inode().
Fix this by mirroring the teardown guard used by __ntfs_write_inode():
once SB_ACTIVE has been cleared, do not try to iget the attribute-list
fake inode. Return -EIO so teardown aborts the update instead of waiting on
the inode it is evicting. |

dm-integrity: fix a bug if the bio is out of limits
If dm_integrity_check_limits fails, the code would exit with
DM_MAPIO_KILL. However, the range would be already locked at this point,
and it wouldn't be unlocked, resulting in a deadlock. Let's move the
limit check up, so that when it exits, no resources are leaked. |
