Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm: don't attempt to queue IO under RCU protection dm looks up the table for IO based on the request type, with an assumption that if the request is marked REQ_NOWAIT, it's fine to attempt to submit that IO while under RCU read lock protection. This is not OK, as REQ_NOWAIT just means that we should not be sleeping waiting on other IO, it does not mean that we can't potentially schedule. A simple test case demonstrates this quite nicely: int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { struct iovec iov; int fd; fd = open("/dev/dm-0", O_RDONLY | O_DIRECT); posix_memalign(&iov.iov_base, 4096, 4096); iov.iov_len = 4096; preadv2(fd, &iov, 1, 0, RWF_NOWAIT); return 0; } which will instantly spew: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/sched/mm.h:306 in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 5580, name: dm-nowait preempt_count: 0, expected: 0 RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 0 INFO: lockdep is turned off.

A sleep-in-atomic-context bug was found in the Device Mapper subsystem in the Linux kernel. When processing REQ_NOWAIT requests, dm incorrectly submits I/O while holding an RCU read lock, assuming that REQ_NOWAIT means no scheduling can occur. However, mempool_alloc() and other allocation functions may still sleep, leading to sleeping function calls from invalid contexts. This can cause kernel warnings or crashes.

Отчет

This is a sleeping-in-atomic-context bug in Device Mapper that can cause kernel warnings and potential issues when using O_DIRECT with RWF_NOWAIT flags on dm devices. The vulnerability requires local access and specific I/O patterns to trigger.
