In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
slab: Fix too strict alignment check in create_cache()
On m68k, where the minimum alignment of unsigned long is 2 bytes:
Kernel panic - not syncing: __kmem_cache_create_args: Failed to create slab 'io_kiocb'. Error -22

The minimal alignment of an integral type may differ from its size,
hence is not safe to assume that an arbitrary freeptr_t (which is
basically an unsigned long) is always aligned to 4 or 8 bytes.
As nothing seems to require the additional alignment, it is safe to fix
this by relaxing the check to the actual minimum alignment of freeptr_t.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: endpoint: Fix PCI domain ID release in pci_epc_destroy()
pci_epc_destroy() invokes pci_bus_release_domain_nr() to release the PCI
domain ID, but there are two issues:
- 'epc->dev' is passed to pci_bus_release_domain_nr() which was already
freed by device_unregister(), leading to a use-after-free issue.
- Domain ID corresponds to the EPC device parent, so passing 'epc->dev'
is also wrong.
Fix these issues by passing 'epc->dev.parent' to
pci_bus_release_domain_nr() and also do it before device_unregister().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/stacktrace: Use break instead of return statement
arch_stack_walk_user_common() contains a return statement instead of a
break statement in case store_ip() fails while trying to store a callchain
entry of a user space process.
This may lead to a missing pagefault_enable() call.
If this happens any subsequent page fault of the process won't be resolved
by the page fault handler and this in turn will lead to the process being
killed.
Use a break instead of a return statement to fix this.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/guc_submit: fix race around suspend_pending
Currently in some testcases we can trigger:
xe 0000:03:00.0: [drm] Assertion `exec_queue_destroyed(q)` failed!
....
WARNING: CPU: 18 PID: 2640 at drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_guc_submit.c:1826 xe_guc_sched_done_handler+0xa54/0xef0 [xe]
xe 0000:03:00.0: [drm] *ERROR* GT1: DEREGISTER_DONE: Unexpected engine state 0x00a1, guc_id=57
Looking at a snippet of corresponding ftrace for this GuC id we can see:

It looks like we try to suspend the queue (opcode=3), setting
suspend_pending and triggering a disable_scheduling. The user then
closes the queue. However the close will also forcefully signal the
suspend fence after killing the queue, later when the G2H response for
disable_scheduling comes back we have now cleared suspend_pending when
signalling the suspend fence, so the disable_scheduling now incorrectly
tries to also deregister the queue. This leads to warnings since the queue
has yet to even be marked for destruction. We also seem to trigger
errors later with trying to double unregister the same queue.
To fix this tweak the ordering when handling the response to ensure we
don't race with a disable_scheduling that didn't actually intend to
perform an unregister. The destruction path should now also correctly
wait for any pending_disable before marking as destroyed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath12k: Skip Rx TID cleanup for self peer
During peer create, dp setup for the peer is done where Rx TID is
updated for all the TIDs. Peer object for self peer will not go through
dp setup.
When core halts, dp cleanup is done for all the peers. While cleanup,
rx_tid::ab is accessed which causes below stack trace for self peer.

Because MAX_PAGE_ORDER, kmalloc can max alloc 4096 * (1 << 10), 4MB
memory, each array entry is pointer(8byte), so can save 524288 pages(2GB).
Further more, costly order(order 3) may not be guaranteed that it can be
applied for, due to fragmentation.
This patch change udmabuf array use kvmalloc_array, this can fallback
alloc into vmalloc, which can guarantee allocation for any size and does
not affect the performance of kmalloc allocations.

HID: hyperv: streamline driver probe to avoid devres issues

And the issue seems to be that the corresponding devres group is not
allocated. Normally, devres_open_group() is called from
__hid_device_probe() but Hyper-V HID driver overrides 'hid_dev->driver'
with 'mousevsc_hid_driver' stub and basically re-implements
__hid_device_probe() by calling hid_parse() and hid_hw_start() but not
devres_open_group(). hid_device_probe() does not call __hid_device_probe()
for it. Later, when the driver is removed, hid_device_remove() calls
devres_release_group() as it doesn't check whether hdev->driver was
initially overridden or not.
The issue seems to be related to the commit 62c68e7cee33 ("HID: ensure
timely release of driver-allocated resources") but the commit itself seems
to be correct.
Fix the issue by dropping the 'hid_dev->driver' override and using
hid_register_driver()/hid_unregister_driver() instead. Alternatively, it
would have been possible to rely on the default handling but
HID_CONNECT_DEFAULT implies HID_CONNECT_HIDRAW and it doesn't seem to work
for mousevsc as-is.

The above scenario will not only trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE(), but also
trigger a deadlock.
Thanks to nocb locking, a second racing rcu_barrier() on an offline CPU
will either observe the decremented callback counter down to 0 and spare
the callback enqueue, or rcuo will observe the new callback and keep
rdp->nocb_cb_sleep to false.
Therefore check rdp->nocb_cb_sleep before parking to make sure no
further rcu_barrier() is waiting on the rdp.
