Subject: [for-linus][PATCH 5/5] ring-buffer: Check resize_disabled before publishing the new subbuf order
Date: Sun, 13 Sep 2026 13:18:04 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260913171850.328757114@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260913171759.469375546@kernel.org>

From: David Carlier <devnexen@gmail.com>

ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() stores the new order and only then walks
the CPUs, returning -EBUSY if any of them has resizing disabled. A user
mapped buffer has resizing disabled, and __rb_map_vma() reads
buffer->subbuf_order without buffer->mutex, so an mmap of an already
mapped CPU racing the failing order change sizes the mapping with the
new order and inserts pages past the sub-buffer into the VMA.

Check the CPUs before storing the new order.
