When they later put the node,\nthis triggers:\n\nBUG_ON(!atomic_read(&node->refcnt))\n\nIn this scenario, Thread B in fact finds the node in the hash table\nrather than creating a new one, and thus must take a reference.\n\nFix this by calling hfs_bnode_get() when reusing a bnode newly created by\nanother thread to ensure the refcount is updated correctly.\n\nA similar bug was fixed in HFS long ago in commit\na9dc087fd3c4 (\"fix missing hfs_bnode_get() in __hfs_bnode_create\")\nbut the same issue remained in HFS+ until now.", "affected": [ { "vendor": "Linux", "product": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "versions": [ { "version": "1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git", "lessThan": "3b0fc7af50b896d0f3d104e70787ba1973bc0b56" }, { "version": "1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git", "lessThan": "39e149d58ef4d7883cbf87448d39d51292fd342d" }, { "version": "1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git", "lessThan": "b68dc4134b18a3922cd33439ec614aad4172bc86" }, { "version": "1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git", "lessThan": "b9d1c6bb5f19460074ce9862cb80be86b5fb0a50" }, { "version": "1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git", "lessThan": "457f795e7abd7770de10216d7f9994a3f12a56d6" }, { "version": "1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git", "lessThan": "5882e7c8cdbb5e254a69628b780acff89c78071e" }, { "version": "1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git", "lessThan": "152af114287851583cf7e0abc10129941f19466a" } ] }, { "vendor": "Linux", "product": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "versions": [ { "version": "2.6.12", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThan": "2.6.12" }, { "version": "5.10.248", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.10.*" }, { "version": "5.15.198", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.15.*" }, { "version": "6.1.160", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.1.*" }, { "version": "6.6.120", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*" }, { "version": "6.12.64", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*" }, { "version": "6.18.3", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*" }, { "version": "6.19", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix", "lessThanOrEqual": "*" } ] } ] } } }
