CVE-2026-89753
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/vmscan: report RCU-tasks quiescent states in shrink_lruvec()
I am seeing some rcu_tasks stalls in the Meta fleet during reclaim.
Nothing promises direct reclaim returns in bounded time, and the scan loop in shrink_lruvec() only calls cond_resched(), which is a no-op on PREEMPTION kernels. Involuntary preemption is not a Tasks-RCU quiescent state, so the reclaiming task never reports one and becomes a holdout.
Upgrade it to cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs(), which reports a quiescent state even when cond_resched() does nothing.
PS: This has been discussed in [1]
