A race condition exists between the async partition scan work and device
teardown that can lead to a use-after-free of ub->ub_disk:
1. ublk_ctrl_start_dev() schedules partition_scan_work after add_disk()
2. ublk_stop_dev() calls ublk_stop_dev_unlocked() which does:
- del_gendisk(ub->ub_disk)
- ublk_detach_disk() sets ub->ub_disk = NULL
- put_disk() which may free the disk
3. The worker ublk_partition_scan_work() then dereferences ub->ub_disk
leading to UAF
Fix this by using ublk_get_disk()/ublk_put_disk() in the worker to hold
a reference to the disk during the partition scan. The spinlock in
ublk_get_disk() synchronizes with ublk_detach_disk() ensuring the worker
either gets a valid reference or sees NULL and exits early.
Also change flush_work() to cancel_work_sync() to avoid running the
partition scan work unnecessarily when the disk is already detached.

loop_set_status() is allowed to change the loop device while there
are other openers of the device, even exclusive ones.
In this case, it causes a KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds Read in
ext4_search_dir(), since when looking for an entry in an inlined
directory, e_value_offs is changed underneath the filesystem by
loop_set_status().
Fix the problem by forbidding loop_set_status() from modifying the loop
device while there are exclusive openers of the device. This is similar
to the fix in loop_configure() by commit 33ec3e53e7b1 ("loop: Don't
change loop device under exclusive opener") alongside commit ecbe6bc0003b
("block: use bd_prepare_to_claim directly in the loop driver").

Implement async partition scan to avoid IO hang when reading partition
tables. Similar to nvme_partition_scan_work(), partition scanning is
deferred to a work queue to prevent deadlocks.
When partition scan happens synchronously during add_disk(), IO errors
can cause the partition scan to wait while holding ub->mutex, which
can deadlock with other operations that need the mutex.
Changes:
- Add partition_scan_work to ublk_device structure
- Implement ublk_partition_scan_work() to perform async scan
- Always suppress sync partition scan during add_disk()
- Schedule async work after add_disk() for trusted daemons
- Add flush_work() in ublk_stop_dev() before grabbing ub->mutex

If a ublk server process releases a ublk char device file, any requests
dispatched to the ublk server but not yet completed will retain a ref
value of UBLK_REFCOUNT_INIT. Before commit e63d2228ef83 ("ublk: simplify
aborting ublk request"), __ublk_fail_req() would decrement the reference
count before completing the failed request. However, that commit
optimized __ublk_fail_req() to call __ublk_complete_rq() directly
without decrementing the request reference count.
The leaked reference count incorrectly allows user copy and zero copy
operations on the completed ublk request. It also triggers the
WARN_ON_ONCE(refcount_read(&io->ref)) warnings in ublk_queue_reinit()
and ublk_deinit_queue().
Commit c5c5eb24ed61 ("ublk: avoid ublk_io_release() called after ublk
char dev is closed") already fixed the issue for ublk devices using
UBLK_F_SUPPORT_ZERO_COPY or UBLK_F_AUTO_BUF_REG. However, the reference
count leak also affects UBLK_F_USER_COPY, the other reference-counted
data copy mode. Fix the condition in ublk_check_and_reset_active_ref()
to include all reference-counted data copy modes. This ensures that any
ublk requests still owned by the ublk server when it exits have their
reference counts reset to 0.

When one process(such as udev) opens ublk block device (e.g., to read
the partition table via bdev_open()), a deadlock[1] can occur:
1. bdev_open() grabs disk->open_mutex
2. The process issues read I/O to ublk backend to read partition table
3. In __ublk_complete_rq(), blk_update_request() or blk_mq_end_request()
runs bio->bi_end_io() callbacks
4. If this triggers fput() on file descriptor of ublk block device, the
work may be deferred to current task's task work (see fput() implementation)
5. This eventually calls blkdev_release() from the same context
6. blkdev_release() tries to grab disk->open_mutex again
7. Deadlock: same task waiting for a mutex it already holds
The fix is to run blk_update_request() and blk_mq_end_request() with bottom
halves disabled. This forces blkdev_release() to run in kernel work-queue
context instead of current task work context, and allows ublk server to make
forward progress, and avoids the deadlock.

Handling most of the ublksrv_ctrl_cmd opcodes require locking a mutex,
so ublk_ctrl_uring_cmd() bails out with EAGAIN when called with the
IO_URING_F_NONBLOCK issue flag. However, several opcodes can be handled
without blocking:
- UBLK_CMD_GET_QUEUE_AFFINITY
- UBLK_CMD_GET_DEV_INFO
- UBLK_CMD_GET_DEV_INFO2
- UBLK_U_CMD_GET_FEATURES
Handle these opcodes synchronously instead of returning EAGAIN so
io_uring doesn't need to issue the command via the worker thread pool.

Add a new helper function blk_rq_nr_bvec() that returns the number of
bvecs in a request. This count represents the number of iterations
rq_for_each_bvec() would perform on a request.
Drivers need to pre-allocate bvec arrays before iterating through
a request's bvecs. Currently, they manually count bvecs using
rq_for_each_bvec() in a loop, which is repetitive. The new helper
centralizes this logic.
This pattern exists in loop and zloop drivers, where multi-bio requests
require copying bvecs into a contiguous array before creating
an iov_iter for file operations.
Update loop and zloop drivers to use the new helper, eliminating
duplicate code.
This patch also provides a clear API to avoid any potential misuse of
blk_nr_phys_segments() for calculating the bvecs since, one bvec can
have more than one segments and use of blk_nr_phys_segments() can
lead to extra memory allocation :-
[ 6155.673749] nullb_bio: 128K bio as ONE bvec: sector=0, size=131072
[ 6155.673846] null_blk: #### null_handle_data_transfer:1375
[ 6155.673850] null_blk: nr_bvec=1 blk_rq_nr_phys_segments=2
[ 6155.674263] null_blk: #### null_handle_data_transfer:1375
[ 6155.674267] null_blk: nr_bvec=1 blk_rq_nr_phys_segments=1

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Unify how task_work cancelations are detected, placing it in the
task_work running state rather than needing to check the task state
- Series cleaning up and moving the cancelation code to where it
belongs, in cancel.c
- Cleanup of waitid and futex argument handling
- Add support for mixed sized SQEs. 6.18 added support for mixed sized
CQEs, improving flexibility and efficiency of workloads that need big
CQEs. This adds similar support for SQEs, where the occasional need
for a 128b SQE doesn't necessitate having all SQEs be 128b in size
- Introduce zcrx and SQ/CQ layout queries. The former returns what zcrx
features are available. And both return the ring size information to
help with allocation size calculation for user provided rings like
IORING_SETUP_NO_MMAP and IORING_MEM_REGION_TYPE_USER
- Zcrx updates for 6.19. It includes a bunch of small patches,
IORING_REGISTER_ZCRX_CTRL and RQ flushing and David's work on sharing
zcrx b/w multiple io_uring instances
- Series cleaning up ring initializations, notable deduplicating ring
size and offset calculations. It also moves most of the checking
before doing any allocations, making the code simpler
- Add support for getsockname and getpeername, which is mostly a
trivial hookup after a bit of refactoring on the networking side

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core & protocols:
- Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list.
Resulting in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending
twice the number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.
- Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
queue.
Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out of idle,
but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly busy.
Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
reordering.
- Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.
- Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already
did for Rx skbs).
- Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.
- Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is
sadly quite expensive on recent AMD machines.
- Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for
packets.
- Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock
pressure, improving the Rx performance.
- Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.
- Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
(using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor
fit for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using
cgroups.
- Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.
- Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of
RTT.
- Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid
unnecessarily aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the
connection RTT is low.
- Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.
- Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.
- Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC
5837).
- Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).
- Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.
- Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.
- Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.
- Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
from Kees.
- Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.
- Some preparations for slimming down struct page.
- YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.
- Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
computed derived statistics and summarized system state.
Driver API:
- Add CAN XL support to the CAN Netlink interface.
- Add uAPI for reporting PHY Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics, as
defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features for
100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification.
- Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in
zl3073x).
- Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads
IPsec and performs RSS.
- Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the
default or a user override. Allow resetting back to default.
- Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload.
- Leverage DSA frame broadcast to implement simple HSR frame
duplication for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload.
- Add uAPI defines for 1.6Tbps link modes.
Device drivers:
- Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support.
- Add MUCSE driver for N500/N210 1GbE NIC series.
- Convert drivers to support dedicated ops for timestamping control,
and away from the direct IOCTL handling. While at it support GET
operations for PHY timestamping.
- Add (and convert most drivers to) a dedicated ethtool callback for
reading the Rx ring count.

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Add support for 'syn'.
Syn is a parsing library for parsing a stream of Rust tokens into a
syntax tree of Rust source code.
Currently this library is geared toward use in Rust procedural
macros, but contains some APIs that may be useful more generally.
'syn' allows us to greatly simplify writing complex macros such as
'pin-init' (Benno has already prepared the 'syn'-based version). We
will use it in the 'macros' crate too.
'syn' is the most downloaded Rust crate (according to crates.io),
and it is also used by the Rust compiler itself. While the amount
of code is substantial, there should not be many updates needed for
these crates, and even if there are, they should not be too big,
e.g. +7k -3k lines across the 3 crates in the last year.
'syn' requires two smaller dependencies: 'quote' and 'proc-macro2'.
I only modified their code to remove a third dependency
('unicode-ident') and to add the SPDX identifiers. The code can be
easily verified to exactly match upstream with the provided
scripts.
They are all licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", like the other
vendored 'alloc' crate we had for a while.
Please see the merge commit with the cover letter for more context.
- Allow 'unreachable_pub' and 'clippy::disallowed_names' for
doctests.
Examples (i.e. doctests) may want to do things like show public
items and use names such as 'foo'.
Nevertheless, we still try to keep examples as close to real code
as possible (this is part of why running Clippy on doctests is
important for us, e.g. for safety comments, which userspace Rust
does not support yet but we are stricter).
'kernel' crate:
- Replace our custom 'CStr' type with 'core::ffi::CStr'.
Using the standard library type reduces our custom code footprint,
and we retain needed custom functionality through an extension
trait and a new 'fmt!' macro which replaces the previous 'core'
import.
This started in 6.17 and continued in 6.18, and we finally land the
replacement now. This required quite some stamina from Tamir, who
split the changes in steps to prepare for the flag day change here.
- Replace 'kernel::c_str!' with C string literals.
C string literals were added in Rust 1.77, which produce '&CStr's
(the 'core' one), so now we can write:
c"hi"
instead of:
c_str!("hi")
- Add 'num' module for numerical features.
It includes the 'Integer' trait, implemented for all primitive
integer types.
It also includes the 'Bounded' integer wrapping type: an integer
value that requires only the 'N' least significant bits of the
wrapped type to be encoded:
// An unsigned 8-bit integer, of which only the 4 LSBs are used.
let v = Bounded::<u8, 4>::new::<15>();
assert_eq!(v.get(), 15);
'Bounded' is useful to e.g. enforce guarantees when working with
bitfields that have an arbitrary number of bits.
Values can also be constructed from simple non-constant expressions
or, for more complex ones, validated at runtime.
'Bounded' also comes with comparison and arithmetic operations
(with both their backing type and other 'Bounded's with a
compatible backing type), casts to change the backing type,
extending/shrinking and infallible/fallible conversions from/to
primitives as applicable.
- 'rbtree' module: add immutable cursor ('Cursor').
It enables to use just an immutable tree reference where
appropriate. The existing fully-featured mutable cursor is renamed
to 'CursorMut'.
kallsyms:
- Fix wrong "big" kernel symbol type read from procfs.
'pin-init' crate:
- A couple minor fixes (Benno asked me to pick these patches up for
him this cycle).
Documentation:
- Quick Start guide: add Debian 13 (Trixie).
Debian Stable is now able to build Linux, since Debian 13 (released
2025-08-09) packages Rust 1.85.0, which is recent enough.
We are planning to propose that the minimum supported Rust version
in Linux follows Debian Stable releases, with Debian 13 being the
first one we upgrade to, i.e. Rust 1.85.
MAINTAINERS:
- Add entry for the new 'num' module.
- Remove Alex as Rust maintainer: he hasn't had the time to
contribute for a few years now, so it is a no-op change in
practice.
And a few other cleanups and improvements"
