Both jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() and jbd2_journal_shrink_checkpoint_list()
periodically release j_list_lock after processing a batch of buffers to
avoid long hold times on the j_list_lock. However, since both functions
contend for j_list_lock, the combined time spent waiting and processing
can be significant.

jbd2_journal_shrink_checkpoint_list() explicitly calls cond_resched() when
need_resched() is true to avoid softlockups during prolonged operations.
But jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() only exits its loop when need_resched() is
true, relying on potentially sleeping functions like __flush_batch() or
wait_on_buffer() to trigger rescheduling. If those functions do not sleep,
the kernel may hit a softlockup.

…dlock

When a user creates a dualpi2 qdisc it automatically sets a timer. This
timer will run constantly and update the qdisc's probability field.
The issue is that the timer acquires the qdisc root lock and runs in
hardirq. The qdisc root lock is also acquired in dev.c whenever a packet
arrives for this qdisc. Since the dualpi2 timer callback runs in hardirq,
it may interrupt the packet processing running in softirq. If that happens
and it runs on the same CPU, it will acquire the same lock and cause a
deadlock. The following splat shows up when running a kernel compiled with
lock debugging:

To fix it, make the timer run in softirq.

smc_lo_register_dmb() allocates DMB buffers with kzalloc(), which are
later passed to get_page() in smc_rx_splice(). Since kmalloc memory is
not page-backed, this triggers WARN_ON_ONCE() in get_page() and prevents
holding a refcount on the buffer. This can lead to use-after-free if
the memory is released before splice_to_pipe() completes.

Use folio_alloc() instead, ensuring DMBs are page-backed and safe for
get_page().

Running sha224_kunit on a KMSAN-enabled kernel results in a crash in

This occurs when memset() is called on a buffer that is not 4-byte aligned
and extends to the end of a guard page, i.e.  the next page is unmapped.

The bug is that the loop at the end of kmsan_internal_set_shadow_origin()
accesses the wrong shadow memory bytes when the address is not 4-byte
aligned.  Since each 4 bytes are associated with an origin, it rounds the
address and size so that it can access all the origins that contain the
buffer.  However, when it checks the corresponding shadow bytes for a
particular origin, it incorrectly uses the original unrounded shadow
address.  This results in reads from shadow memory beyond the end of the
buffer's shadow memory, which crashes when that memory is not mapped.

To fix this, correctly align the shadow address before accessing the 4
shadow bytes corresponding to each origin.
