A passthrough command has RQF_USE_SCHED cleared, so\nusing those flags for a subsequent read/write bio will insert it into\nthe scheduler without ->prepare_request() and frees it without\n->finish_request(). For kyber, this leaks the domain token acquired at\ndispatch and stalls the queue.\n\nDon't set RQF_USE_SCHED based on the first operation the batch happened\nto be allocated for. Instead, set it after the request is claimed by an\noperation. Introduce a helper function, blk_mq_rq_late_init() for this,\nand absorb blk_mq_rq_time_init() since the two run together."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["block/blk-mq.c","block/mq-deadline.c"],"versions":[{"version":"4b6a5d9cea911424e84107df8c4eb8317938d2cd","lessThan":"790730e4d95de8356a573d4b4864486bba731863","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"4b6a5d9cea911424e84107df8c4eb8317938d2cd","lessThan":"2c47ebc27fa72078e26177cd458cdaf3006a9685","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"4b6a5d9cea911424e84107df8c4eb8317938d2cd","lessThan":"ab6c756f28c741d704a7c3e04814bfc3adf6f818","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["block/blk-mq.c","block/mq-deadline.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.1","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.1","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.56","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.10","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.56"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.10"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1","versionEndExcluding":"7.3"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/790730e4d95de8356a573d4b4864486bba731863"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2c47ebc27fa72078e26177cd458cdaf3006a9685"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ab6c756f28c741d704a7c3e04814bfc3adf6f818"}],"title":"blk-mq: set RQF_USE_SCHED when the operation is known","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
