"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\next4: avoid deadlock in fs reclaim with page writeback\n\nExt4 has a filesystem wide lock protecting ext4_writepages() calls to\navoid races with switching of journalled data flag or inode format. This\nlock can however cause a deadlock like:\n\nCPU0 CPU1\n\next4_writepages()\n percpu_down_read(sbi->s_writepages_rwsem);\n ext4_change_inode_journal_flag()\n percpu_down_write(sbi->s_writepages_rwsem);\n - blocks, all readers block from now on\n ext4_do_writepages()\n ext4_init_io_end()\n kmem_cache_zalloc(io_end_cachep, GFP_KERNEL)\n fs_reclaim frees dentry...\n dentry_unlink_inode()\n iput() - last ref =>\n iput_final() - inode dirty =>\n write_inode_now()...\n ext4_writepages() tries to acquire sbi->s_writepages_rwsem\n and blocks forever\n\nMake sure we cannot recurse into filesystem reclaim from writeback code\nto avoid the deadlock."
