In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/core: Avoid false migration warning for proxy donors
Proxy execution can move a blocked donor's scheduling context to the
lock owner's CPU even when the donor is migration-disabled. The donor
does not execute there, and its original execution CPU remains recorded
in wake_cpu.
set_task_cpu() warns unconditionally for migration-disabled tasks, so a
subsequent proxy migration or the wakeup path returning the donor home
triggers a false positive: moving a blocked scheduling context does not
violate the migration-disabled execution context.
For example, creating a mutex owner on CPU1 and a migration-disabled
waiter on CPU0 can trigger the following warning:
proxy_migrate_repro: donor blocking on CPU0 with migration disabled
proxy_migrate_repro: donor moved from CPU0 to CPU1
WARNING: kernel/sched/core.c:3389 at set_task_cpu+0x1d3/0x280
...
Call Trace:
try_to_wake_up+0x43f/0x780
__mutex_unlock_slowpath+0x330/0x540
owner_fn+0x9f/0xc0 [proxy_migrate_repro]
...
proxy_migrate_repro: donor woke on CPU0, task_cpu=0
proxy_migrate_repro: completed
Exclude blocked proxy donors from the warning. The proxy wakeup path
restores an executable placement before clearing the blocked state.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's process scheduler. A local user can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by initiating lock contention across processor cores with a task that has processor migration disabled. In this scenario, the scheduler incorrectly triggers a kernel warning when moving the blocked task's context during proxy execution, which can crash the system if configured to panic on warnings.
