io_uring/kbuf: propagate BUF_MORE through early buffer commit path

2026-03-25T10:08:49+00:00

Commit 418eab7a6f3c002d8e64d6e95ec27118017019af upstream. When io_should_commit() returns true (eg for non-pollable files), buffer commit happens at buffer selection time and sel->buf_list is set to NULL. When __io_put_kbufs() generates CQE flags at completion time, it calls __io_put_kbuf_ring() which finds a NULL buffer_list and hence cannot determine whether the buffer was consumed or not. This means that IORING_CQE_F_BUF_MORE is never set for non-pollable input with incrementally consumed buffers. Likewise for io_buffers_select(), which always commits upfront and discards the return value of io_kbuf_commit(). Add REQ_F_BUF_MORE to store the result of io_kbuf_commit() during early commit. Then __io_put_kbuf_ring() can check this flag and set IORING_F_BUF_MORE accordingy.

io_uring/kbuf: check if target buffer list is still legacy on recycle

2026-03-25T10:08:46+00:00

Commit c2c185be5c85d37215397c8e8781abf0a69bec1f upstream. There's a gap between when the buffer was grabbed and when it potentially gets recycled, where if the list is empty, someone could've upgraded it to a ring provided type. This can happen if the request is forced via io-wq. The legacy recycling is missing checking if the buffer_list still exists, and if it's of the correct type. Add those checks.

io_uring/uring_cmd: fix too strict requirement on ioctl

2026-03-25T10:08:44+00:00

[ Upstream commit 600b665b903733bd60334e86031b157cc823ee55 ] Attempting SOCKET_URING_OP_SETSOCKOPT on an AF_NETLINK socket resulted in an -EOPNOTSUPP, as AF_NETLINK doesn't have an ioctl in its struct proto, but only in struct proto_ops. Prior to the blamed commit, io_uring_cmd_sock() only had two cmd_op operations, both requiring ioctl, thus the check was warranted. Since then, 4 new cmd_op operations have been added, none of which depend on ioctl. This patch moves the ioctl check, so it only applies to the original operations. AFAICT, the ioctl requirement was unintentional, and it wasn't visible in the blamed patch within 3 lines of context.

io_uring/filetable: clamp alloc_hint to the configured alloc range

2026-03-04T12:21:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit a6bded921ed35f21b3f6bd8e629bf488499ca442 ] Explicit fixed file install/remove operations on slots outside the configured alloc range can corrupt alloc_hint via io_file_bitmap_set() and io_file_bitmap_clear(), which unconditionally update alloc_hint to the bit position. This causes subsequent auto-allocations to fall outside the configured range. For example, if the alloc range is [10, 20) and a file is removed at slot 2, alloc_hint gets set to 2. The next auto-alloc then starts searching from slot 2, potentially returning a slot below the range. Fix this by clamping alloc_hint to [file_alloc_start, file_alloc_end) at the top of io_file_bitmap_get() before starting the search.

io_uring/net: don't continue send bundle if poll was required for retry

2026-03-04T12:21:50+00:00

[ Upstream commit 806ae939c41e5da1d94a1e2b31f5702e96b6c3e3 ] If a send bundle has picked a bunch of buffers, then it needs to send all of those to be complete. This may require poll arming, if the send buffer ends up being full. Once a send bundle has been poll armed, no further bundles should be attempted. This allows a current bundle to complete even though it needs to go through polling to do so, but it will not allow another bundle to be started once that has happened. Ideally we would abort a bundle if it was only partially sent, but as some parts of it already went out on the wire, this obviously isn't feasible. Not continuing more bundle attempts post encountering a full socket buffer is the second best thing.

io_uring/cancel: de-unionize file and user_data in struct io_cancel_data

2026-03-04T12:20:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit 22dbb0987bd1e0ec3b1e4ad20756a98f99aa4a08 ] By having them share the same space in struct io_cancel_data, it ends up disallowing IORING_ASYNC_CANCEL_FD|IORING_ASYNC_CANCEL_USERDATA from working. Eg you cannot match on both a file and user_data for cancelation purposes. This obviously isn't a common use case as nobody has reported this, but it does result in -ENOENT potentially being returned when trying to match on both, rather than actually doing what the API says it would.

io_uring: use release-acquire ordering for IORING_SETUP_R_DISABLED

This means they may race with the assignment to ctx->submitter_task and the clearing of IORING_SETUP_R_DISABLED from ctx->flags in io_register_enable_rings(). Ensure the correct ordering of the ctx->flags and ctx->submitter_task memory accesses by storing to ctx->flags using release ordering and loading it using acquire ordering.

io_uring/rw: recycle buffers manually for non-mshot reads

2026-02-12T12:14:56+00:00

Commit d8e1dec2f860ee40623609aa6c4f22e1ee45605d upstream. The mshot side of reads already does this, but the regular read path does not. This leads to needing recycling checks sprinkled in various spots in the "go async" path, like arming poll. In preparation for getting rid of those, ensure that read recycles appropriately.

io_uring/io-wq: check IO_WQ_BIT_EXIT inside work run loop

2026-01-30T09:28:41+00:00

commit 10dc959398175736e495f71c771f8641e1ca1907 upstream. Currently this is checked before running the pending work. Normally this is quite fine, as work items either end up blocking (which will create a new worker for other items), or they complete fairly quickly. But syzbot reports an issue where io-wq takes seemingly forever to exit, and with a bit of debugging, this turns out to be because it queues a bunch of big (2GB - 4096b) reads with a /dev/msr* file. Since this file type doesn't support ->read_iter(), loop_rw_iter() ends up handling them. Each read returns 16MB of data read, which takes 20 (!!) seconds. With a bunch of these pending, processing the whole chain can take a long time. Easily longer than the syzbot uninterruptible sleep timeout of 140 seconds. This then triggers a complaint off the io-wq exit path: INFO: task syz.4.135:6326 blocked for more than 143 seconds. Not tainted syzkaller #0 Blocked by coredump. "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. task:syz.4.135 state:D stack:26824 pid:6326 tgid:6324 ppid:5957 task_flags:0x400548 flags:0x00080000 Call Trace: context_switch kernel/sched/core.c:5256 [inline] __schedule+0x1139/0x6150 kernel/sched/core.c:6863 __schedule_loop kernel/sched/core.c:6945 [inline] schedule+0xe7/0x3a0 kernel/sched/core.c:6960 schedule_timeout+0x257/0x290 kernel/time/sleep_timeout.c:75 do_wait_for_common kernel/sched/completion.c:100 [inline] __wait_for_common+0x2fc/0x4e0 kernel/sched/completion.c:121 io_wq_exit_workers io_uring/io-wq.c:1328 [inline] io_wq_put_and_exit+0x271/0x8a0 io_uring/io-wq.c:1356 io_uring_clean_tctx+0x10d/0x190 io_uring/tctx.c:203 io_uring_cancel_generic+0x69c/0x9a0 io_uring/cancel.c:651 io_uring_files_cancel include/linux/io_uring.h:19 [inline] do_exit+0x2ce/0x2bd0 kernel/exit.c:911 do_group_exit+0xd3/0x2a0 kernel/exit.c:1112 get_signal+0x2671/0x26d0 kernel/signal.c:3034 arch_do_signal_or_restart+0x8f/0x7e0 arch/x86/kernel/signal.c:337 __exit_to_user_mode_loop kernel/entry/common.c:41 [inline] exit_to_user_mode_loop+0x8c/0x540 kernel/entry/common.c:75 __exit_to_user_mode_prepare include/linux/irq-entry-common.h:226 [inline] syscall_exit_to_user_mode_prepare include/linux/irq-entry-common.h:256 [inline] syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work include/linux/entry-common.h:159 [inline] syscall_exit_to_user_mode include/linux/entry-common.h:194 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x4ee/0xf80 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:100 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f RIP: 0033:0x7fa02738f749 RSP: 002b:00007fa0281ae0e8 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 00000000000000ca RAX: fffffffffffffe00 RBX: 00007fa0275e6098 RCX: 00007fa02738f749 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000080 RDI: 00007fa0275e6098 RBP: 00007fa0275e6090 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: 00007fa0275e6128 R14: 00007fff14e4fcb0 R15: 00007fff14e4fd98 There's really nothing wrong here, outside of processing these reads will take a LONG time. However, we can speed up the exit by checking the IO_WQ_BIT_EXIT inside the io_worker_handle_work() loop, as syzbot will exit the ring after queueing up all of these reads. Then once the first item is processed, io-wq will simply cancel the rest. That should avoid syzbot running into this complaint again.
