Subject: [RFC PATCH 01/10] scsi: bsg: Don't copy sense data to user memory when canceled
Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2026 21:52:17 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261026215226.3713941-2-jthoughton@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261026215226.3713941-1-jthoughton@google.com>
scsi_bsg_uring_task_cb() copies the sense data to the submitter's
response_addr with copy_to_user(). It runs as io_uring task work, but
io_uring may also run it with tw.cancel set from other contexts when the
submitting task can't run it: from a kworker when the submitting task
has exited (io_tctx_fallback_work()), or from io_cancel_local_task_work()
when a DEFER_TASKRUN ring is torn down.
In a kworker, current->mm is NULL, and the copy does not reliably fail:
the user half of the address space belongs to whatever mm happens to be
lazily loaded, if any, so up to max_response_len bytes of sense data may
be written into an unrelated process.
Don't copy the sense data when the task work is canceled, and complete
the command with -ECANCELED.
Fixes: 7b6d3255e7f8 ("scsi: bsg: add io_uring passthrough handler")
