Subject: [PATCH] ublk: reject FETCH from non-userspace context
Date: Fri,  1 May 2026 16:52:16 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260501085216.905401-1-tom.leiming@gmail.com> (raw)

__ublk_fetch() sets io->task to current, which is later checked
against io_uring_cmd_get_task() in ublk_uring_cmd_cancel_fn().
With REQ_F_FORCE_ASYNC, the FETCH uring_cmd can be issued from
task work, which can be run from io_uring's fallback workqueue,
causing a task mismatch and triggering the WARN in cancel_fn.

Reject FETCH if current is not a real userspace task, and it is
reasonable for failing it in case of io_uring fallback.

Fixes: 3421c7f68bba ("ublk: make sure io cmd handled in submitter task context")
