Overview

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: quota: fix loop condition at f2fs_quota_sync() cnt should be passed to sb_has_quota_active() instead of type to check active quota properly. Moreover, when the type is -1, the compiler with enough inline knowledge can discard sb_has_quota_active() check altogether, causing a NULL pointer dereference at the following inode_lock(dqopt->files[cnt]): [ 2.796010] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000000a0 [ 2.796024] Mem abort info: [ 2.796025] ESR = 0x96000005 [ 2.796028] EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits [ 2.796029] SET = 0, FnV = 0 [ 2.796031] EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 [ 2.796032] Data abort info: [ 2.796034] ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000005 [ 2.796035] CM = 0, WnR = 0 [ 2.796046] user pgtable: 4k pages, 39-bit VAs, pgdp=00000003370d1000 [ 2.796048] [00000000000000a0] pgd=0000000000000000, pud=0000000000000000 [ 2.796051] Internal error: Oops: 96000005 [#1] PREEMPT SMP [ 2.796056] CPU: 7 PID: 640 Comm: f2fs_ckpt-259:7 Tainted: G S 5.4.179-arter97-r8-64666-g2f16e087f9d8 #1 [ 2.796057] Hardware name: Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: coresight: tmc-etr: Fix race condition between sysfs and perf mode When trying to run perf and sysfs mode simultaneously, the WARN_ON() in tmc_etr_enable_hw() is triggered sometimes: WARNING: CPU: 42 PID: 3911571 at drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-tmc-etr.c:1060 tmc_etr_enable_hw+0xc0/0xd8 [coresight_tmc] [..snip..] Call trace: tmc_etr_enable_hw+0xc0/0xd8 [coresight_tmc] (P) tmc_enable_etr_sink+0x11c/0x250 [coresight_tmc] (L) tmc_enable_etr_sink+0x11c/0x250 [coresight_tmc] coresight_enable_path+0x1c8/0x218 [coresight] coresight_enable_sysfs+0xa4/0x228 [coresight] enable_source_store+0x58/0xa8 [coresight] dev_attr_store+0x20/0x40 sysfs_kf_write+0x4c/0x68 kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x120/0x1b8 vfs_write+0x2c8/0x388 ksys_write+0x74/0x108 __arm64_sys_write+0x24/0x38 el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0x64/0x148 do_el0_svc+0x24/0x38 el0_svc+0x3c/0x130 el0t_64_sync_handler+0xc8/0xd0 el0t_64_sync+0x1ac/0x1b0 ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- Since the enablement of sysfs mode is separeted into two critical regions, one for sysfs buffer allocation and another for hardware enablement, it's possible to race with the perf mode. Fix this by double check whether the perf mode's been used before enabling the hardware in sysfs mode. mode: [sysfs mode] [perf mode] tmc_etr_get_sysfs_buffer() spin_lock(&drvdata->spinlock) [sysfs buffer allocation] spin_unlock(&drvdata->spinlock) spin_lock(&drvdata->spinlock) tmc_etr_enable_hw() drvdata->etr_buf = etr_perf->etr_buf spin_unlock(&drvdata->spinlock) spin_lock(&drvdata->spinlock) tmc_etr_enable_hw() WARN_ON(drvdata->etr_buf) // WARN sicne etr_buf initialized at the perf side spin_unlock(&drvdata->spinlock) With this fix, we retain the check for CS_MODE_PERF in get_etr_sysfs_buf. This ensures we verify whether the perf mode's already running before we actually allocate the buffer. Then we can save the time of allocating/freeing the sysfs buffer if race with the perf mode.CVE-2026-46272
