Subject: [PATCH 6.6 01/25] smb: client: split cached_fid bitfields to avoid shared-byte RMW races
Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2026 14:48:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260213134703.939478994@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260213134703.882698935@linuxfoundation.org>
6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Henrique Carvalho <henrique.carvalho@suse.com>
commit ec306600d5ba7148c9dbf8f5a8f1f5c1a044a241 upstream.
is_open, has_lease and on_list are stored in the same bitfield byte in
struct cached_fid but are updated in different code paths that may run
concurrently. Bitfield assignments generate byte read–modify–write
operations (e.g. `orb $mask, addr` on x86_64), so updating one flag can
restore stale values of the others.
A possible interleaving is:
CPU1: load old byte (has_lease=1, on_list=1)
CPU2: clear both flags (store 0)
CPU1: RMW store (old | IS_OPEN) -> reintroduces cleared bits
To avoid this class of races, convert these flags to separate bool
fields.
