CVE-2026-43115

Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

srcu: Use irq_work to start GP in tiny SRCU

Tiny SRCU's srcu_gp_start_if_needed() directly calls schedule_work(), which acquires the workqueue pool->lock.

This causes a lockdep splat when call_srcu() is called with a scheduler lock held, due to:

Also add irq_work_sync() to cleanup_srcu_struct() to prevent a use-after-free if a queued irq_work fires after cleanup begins.

Tested with rcutorture SRCU-T and no lockdep warnings.

[ Thanks to Boqun for similar fix in patch "rcu: Use an intermediate irq_work to start process_srcu()" ]
