Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

[ Upstream commit 2e315dc0 ] Grab rq->refcount before calling ->fn in blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter(), and this way will prevent the request from being re-used when ->fn is running. The approach is same as what we do during handling timeout. Fix request use-after-free(UAF) related with completion race or queue releasing: - If one rq is referred before rq->q is frozen, then queue won't be frozen before the request is released during iteration. - If one rq is referred after rq->q is frozen, refcount_inc_not_zero() will return false, and we won't iterate over this request. However, still one request UAF not covered: refcount_inc_not_zero() may read one freed request, and it will be handled in next patch. Tested-by:John Garry <john.garry@huawei.com> Reviewed-by:
