In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix warning in ext4_handle_inode_extension We got issue as follows: EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_reserve_inode_write:5741: Out of memory EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_setattr:5462: inode #13: comm syz-executor.0: mark_inode_dirty error EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_setattr:5519: Out of memory EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_ind_map_blocks:595: inode #13: comm syz-executor.0: Can't allocate blocks for non-extent mapped inodes with bigalloc ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 4361 at fs/ext4/file.c:301 ext4_file_write_iter+0x11c9/0x1220 Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 4361 Comm: syz-executor.0 Not tainted 5.10.0+ #1 RIP: 0010:ext4_file_write_iter+0x11c9/0x1220 RSP: 0018:ffff924d80b27c00 EFLAGS: 00010282 RAX: ffffffff815a3379 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 000000003b000000 RDX: ffff924d81601000 RSI: 00000000000009cc RDI: 00000000000009cd RBP: 000000000000000d R08: ffffffffbc5a2c6b R09: 0000902e0e52a96f R10: ffff902e2b7c1b40 R11: ffff902e2b7c1b40 R12: 000000000000000a R13: 0000000000000001 R14: ffff902e0e52aa10 R15: ffffffffffffff8b FS: 00007f81a7f65700(0000) GS:ffff902e3bc80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: ffffffffff600400 CR3: 000000012db88001 CR4: 00000000003706e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Call Trace: do_iter_readv_writev+0x2e5/0x360 do_iter_write+0x112/0x4c0 do_pwritev+0x1e5/0x390 __x64_sys_pwritev2+0x7e/0xa0 do_syscall_64+0x37/0x50 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 Above issue may happen as follows: Assume inode.i_size=4096 EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize=4096 step 1: set inode->i_isize = 8192 ext4_setattr if (attr->ia_size != inode->i_size) EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize = attr->ia_size; rc = ext4_mark_inode_dirty ext4_reserve_inode_write ext4_get_inode_loc __ext4_get_inode_loc sb_getblk --> return -ENOMEM ... if (!error) ->will not update i_size i_size_write(inode, attr->ia_size); Now: inode.i_size=4096 EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize=8192 step 2: Direct write 4096 bytes ext4_file_write_iter ext4_dio_write_iter iomap_dio_rw ->return error if (extend) ext4_handle_inode_extension WARN_ON_ONCE(i_size_read(inode) < EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize); ->Then trigger warning. To solve above issue, if mark inode dirty failed in ext4_setattr just set 'EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize' with old value.

  1. 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
