Subject: [patch 02/10] rseq: Protect rseq_reset() against interrupts
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2026 01:33:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260428224427.353887714@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260428221058.149538293@kernel.org
rseq_reset() uses memset() to clear the tasks rseq data. That's racy
against membarrier() and preemption.
Guard it with irqsave to cure this.
Fixes: faba9d250eae ("rseq: Introduce struct rseq_data")
Reported-by: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com>
