Backport rcu-tasks fix to stable kernel version 6.6.y

by Tahera Fahimi

Dear Stable Kernel Maintainers, I am writing to request the backport of the following patches to stable kernel versions 6.6.y, addressing a deadlock issue in RCU Tasks related to do_exit() on preemptible systems. Issue Description: The kernel may experience deadlocks due to shared locking between exit_tasks_rcu_start() and rcu_tasks_postscan() via synchronize_srcu(), when multiple processes exit concurrently. The problem manifests as stalls in the RCU tasks grace period. This issue manifest as a deadlock in WSL kernel which uses the stable kernel 6.6.87 (Please see the issue on https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/13480) Patches to Apply: Patch 1: Subject: rcu-tasks: Maintain lists to eliminate RCU-tasks/do_exit() deadlocks Commit ID: 6b70399f9ef3809f6e308fd99dd78b072c1bd05c Justification: Introduces per-CPU lists for exiting tasks, replacing SRCU-based waits and eliminating deadlocks during concurrent exits. Patch 2: Subject: rcu-tasks: Eliminate deadlocks involving do_exit() and RCU tasks Commit ID: 1612160b91272f5b1596f499584d6064bf5be794 Justification: Ensures all exiting tasks are properly gathered and synchronized, preventing missed synchronizations and further deadlocks. Patch 3: Subject: rcu-tasks: Maintain real-time response in rcu_tasks_postscan() Commit ID: 0bb11a372fc8d7006b4d0f42a2882939747bdbff Justification: Periodically enables interrupts during per-CPU list traversal to maintain system responsiveness, especially when many tasks are present. Kernel version: latest kernel version in 6.6.y branch Thank you for your consideration. Best regards, Tahera Fahimi

[PATCH v3 0/4 5.10.y] overflow: Allow mixed type arguments in overflow macros

by Eliav Farber

This series backports four commits to bring include/linux/overflow.h in line with v5.15.193: - 4578be130a64 ("overflow: Correct check_shl_overflow() comment") - 4eb6bd55cfb2 ("compiler.h: drop fallback overflow checkers") - 53f2cd86a81c ("overflow: Allow mixed type arguments") - ed6e37e30826 ("tracing: Define the is_signed_type() macro once") The motivation is to fix build failures such as: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/ethtool.c: In function ‘e1000_set_eeprom’: ./include/linux/overflow.h:71:15: error: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast [-Werror] 71 | (void) (&__a == __d); \ | ^~ drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/ethtool.c:582:6: note: in expansion of macro ‘check_add_overflow’ 582 | if (check_add_overflow(eeprom->offset, eeprom->len, &total_len) || | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This regression was triggered by commit ce8829d3d44b ("e1000e: fix heap overflow in e1000_set_eeprom"). check_add_overflow() requires the first two operands and the result pointer to be of identical type. On 64-bit builds, using size_t for the result conflicted with the u32 fields eeprom->offset and eeprom->len, resulting in type check failures.

[PATCH] comedi: fix divide-by-zero in comedi_buf_munge()

by Deepanshu Kartikey

The comedi_buf_munge() function performs a modulo operation `async->munge_chan %= async->cmd.chanlist_len` without first checking if chanlist_len is zero. If a user program submits a command with chanlist_len set to zero, this causes a divide-by-zero error when the device processes data in the interrupt handler path. Add a check for zero chanlist_len at the beginning of the function, similar to the existing checks for !map and CMDF_RAWDATA flag. When chanlist_len is zero, update munge_count and return early, indicating the data was handled without munging. This prevents potential kernel panics from malformed user commands.

However, it's called without folio lock. If the folio is migrated and the mapped pte has been converted to migration entry, folio_mapped() returns false, and won't unmap it. Due to extra refcount held by remove_inode_single_folio, migration fails, restores migration entry to normal pte, and the folio is mapped again. As a result, we triggered BUG in filemap_unaccount_folio. The log is as follows: BUG: Bad page cache in process hugetlb pfn:156c00 page: refcount:515 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000099fef6e1 index:0x0 pfn:0x156c00 head: order:9 mapcount:1 entire_mapcount:1 nr_pages_mapped:0 pincount:0 aops:hugetlbfs_aops ino:dcc dentry name(?):"my_hugepage_file" flags: 0x17ffffc00000c1(locked|waiters|head|node=0|zone=2|lastcpupid=0x1fffff) page_type: f4(hugetlb) page dumped because: still mapped when deleted CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 395 Comm: hugetlb Not tainted 6.17.0-rc5-00044-g7aac71907bde-dirty #484 NONE Hardware name: QEMU Ubuntu 24.04 PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x4f/0x70 filemap_unaccount_folio+0xc4/0x1c0 __filemap_remove_folio+0x38/0x1c0 filemap_remove_folio+0x41/0xd0 remove_inode_hugepages+0x142/0x250 hugetlbfs_fallocate+0x471/0x5a0 vfs_fallocate+0x149/0x380 Hold folio lock before checking if the folio is mapped to avold race with migration.

[PATCH] drm/xe: Increase global invalidation timeout to 1000us
