Thank you!
Hey Linus, /* Summary */ This contains various fixes for this cycle: - It was reported that the acct(2) system call can be used to trigger a NULL deref in cases where it is set to write to a file that triggers an internal lookup. This can e.g., happen when pointing acct(2) to /sys/power/resume. At the point the where the write to this file happens the calling task has already exited and called exit_fs() but an internal lookup might be triggered through lookup_bdev(). This may trigger a NULL-deref when accessing current->fs. Reorganize the code so that the the final write happens from the workqueue but with the caller's credentials. This preserves the (strange) permission model and has almost no regression risk. Also block access to kernel internal filesystems as well as procfs and sysfs in the first place. - Various fixes for netfslib: - Fix a number of read-retry hangs, including: - Incorrect getting/putting of references on subreqs as we retry them. - Failure to track whether a last old subrequest in a retried set is superfluous. - Inconsistency in the usage of wait queues used for subrequests (ie. using clear_and_wake_up_bit() whilst waiting on a private waitqueue). - Add stats counters for retries and publish in /proc/fs/netfs/stats. This is not a fix per se, but is useful in debugging and shouldn't otherwise change the operation of the code. - Fix the ordering of queuing subrequests with respect to setting the request flag that says we've now queued them all. /* Testing */ gcc version (Debian 14.2.0-8) 14.2.0 Debian clang version 19.1.4 (1) No build failures or warnings were observed. /* Conflicts */ Merge conflicts with mainline ============================= No known conflicts.
