In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/core: Handle pick_task() releasing the rq lock
Core scheduling's pick_next_task() breaks when a ->pick_task()
implementation can release the rq lock. The selection state derived on entry
is only valid while the lock is held continuously. Once a pick can drop the
lock, an interleaving selection can invalidate all of it: the single-CPU
fast path can commit an uncookied pick although the core went cookied during
the release, and forceidle committed by the interleaving selection skews the
restarted pass's accounting.
Fix it by restarting the whole selection when a pick returns RETRY_TASK
after releasing the lock: a single restart point above the state derivation
replaces the per-loop restart labels, so a retry picks up state committed by
interleaving selections and accounts and resets forceidle like a fresh
selection would.
need_sync and fi_before latch across retries. Clock validity can't be
re-derived - there is no program-ordered way to tell whether the own and
core rq clocks are still updated after the lock was released, as other
lockers' pin cycles may or may not have invalidated them. When restarting,
clear core_clock_updated so that the sibling loop re-updates the core rq,
and update the own rq clock if invalidated.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's core scheduling component. This issue occurs when the pick_task() function releases the run queue (rq) lock, allowing an interleaving selection to invalidate the scheduler's internal state. This inconsistency can lead to incorrect task selection and skewed resource accounting, potentially affecting system stability or causing a denial of service.
