wifi: cfg80211: init wiphy_work before allocating rfkill fails

2026-02-06T15:42:06+00:00

commit fc88dee89d7b63eeb17699393eb659aadf9d9b7c upstream. syzbort reported a uninitialize wiphy_work_lock in cfg80211_dev_free. [1] After rfkill allocation fails, the wiphy release process will be performed, which will cause cfg80211_dev_free to access the uninitialized wiphy_work related data. Move the initialization of wiphy_work to before rfkill initialization to avoid this issue. [1] INFO: trying to register non-static key. The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe you didn't initialize this object before use? turning off the locking correctness validator.

wifi: cfg80211: fully move wiphy work to unbound workqueue

commit e296c95eac655008d5a709b8cf54d0018da1c916 upstream. Previously I had moved the wiphy work to the unbound system workqueue, but missed that when it restarts and during resume it was still using the normal system workqueue. Fix that.

wifi: cfg80211: cancel wiphy_work before freeing wiphy

2026-02-06T15:42:06+00:00

commit 72d520476a2fab6f3489e8388ab524985d6c4b90 upstream. A wiphy_work can be queued from the moment the wiphy is allocated and initialized (i.e. wiphy_new_nm). When a wiphy_work is queued, the rdev::wiphy_work is getting queued. If wiphy_free is called before the rdev::wiphy_work had a chance to run, the wiphy memory will be freed, and then when it eventally gets to run it'll use invalid memory. Fix this by canceling the work before freeing the wiphy.

wifi: cfg80211: fix wiphy delayed work queueing

2026-02-06T15:42:06+00:00

commit b743287d7a0007493f5cada34ed2085d475050b4 upstream. When a wiphy work is queued with timer, and then again without a delay, it's started immediately but *also* started again after the timer expires. This can lead, for example, to warnings in mac80211's offchannel code as reported by Jouni. Running the same work twice isn't expected, of course. Fix this by deleting the timer at this point, when queuing immediately due to delay=0.

wifi: cfg80211: use system_unbound_wq for wiphy work

commit 91d20ab9d9ca035527af503d00e1e30d6c375f2a upstream. Since wiphy work items can run pretty much arbitrary code in the stack/driver, it can take longer to run all of this, so we shouldn't be using system_wq via schedule_work(). Also, we lock the wiphy (which is the reason this exists), so use system_unbound_wq.

team: Move team device type change at the end of team_port_add

2026-02-06T15:42:06+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0ae9cfc454ea5ead5f3ddbdfe2e70270d8e2c8ef ] Attempting to add a port device that is already up will expectedly fail, but not before modifying the team device header_ops. In the case of the syzbot reproducer the gre0 device is already in state UP when it attempts to add it as a port device of team0, this fails but before that header_ops->create of team0 is changed from eth_header to ipgre_header in the call to team_dev_type_check_change. Later when we end up in ipgre_header() struct ip_tunnel* points to nonsense as the private data of the device still holds a struct team. Example sequence of iproute2 commands to reproduce the hang/BUG(): ip link add dev team0 type team ip link add dev gre0 type gre ip link set dev gre0 up ip link set dev gre0 master team0 ip link set dev team0 up ping -I team0 1.1.1.1 Move team_dev_type_check_change down where all other checks have passed as it changes the dev type with no way to restore it in case one of the checks that follow it fail. Also make sure to preserve the origial mtu assignment: - If port_dev is not the same type as dev, dev takes mtu from port_dev - If port_dev is the same type as dev, port_dev takes mtu from dev This is done by adding a conditional before the call to dev_set_mtu to prevent it from assigning port_dev->mtu = dev->mtu and instead letting team_dev_type_check_change assign dev->mtu = port_dev->mtu. The conditional is needed because the patch moves the call to team_dev_type_check_change past dev_set_mtu.

mptcp: avoid dup SUB_CLOSED events after disconnect

2026-02-06T15:42:06+00:00

[ Upstream commit 280d654324e33f8e6e3641f76764694c7b64c5db ] In case of subflow disconnect(), which can also happen with the first subflow in case of errors like timeout or reset, mptcp_subflow_ctx_reset will reset most fields from the mptcp_subflow_context structure, including close_event_done. Then, when another subflow is closed, yet another SUB_CLOSED event for the disconnected initial subflow is sent. Because of the previous reset, there are no source address and destination port. A solution is then to also check the subflow's local id: it shouldn't be negative anyway. Another solution would be not to reset subflow->close_event_done at disconnect time, but when reused. But then, probably the whole reset could be done when being reused. Let's not change this logic, similar to TCP with tcp_disconnect().

writeback: fix 100% CPU usage when dirtytime_expire_interval is 0

[ Upstream commit 543467d6fe97e27e22a26e367fda972dbefebbff ] When vm.dirtytime_expire_seconds is set to 0, wakeup_dirtytime_writeback() schedules delayed work with a delay of 0, causing immediate execution.
