      "title": "mm/damon/core: fix damos_walk() vs kdamond_fn() exit race",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmm/damon/core: fix damos_walk() vs kdamond_fn() exit race\n\nWhen kdamond_fn() main loop is finished, the function cancels remaining\ndamos_walk() request and unset the damon_ctx->kdamond so that API callers\nand API functions themselves can show the context is terminated. \ndamos_walk() adds the caller's request to the queue first.  After that, it\nshows if the kdamond of the damon_ctx is still running (damon_ctx->kdamond\nis set).  Only if the kdamond is running, damos_walk() starts waiting for\nthe kdamond's handling of the newly added request.\n\nThe damos_walk() requests registration and damon_ctx->kdamond unset are\nprotected by different mutexes, though.  Hence, damos_walk() could race\nwith damon_ctx->kdamond unset, and result in deadlocks.\n\nFor example, let's suppose kdamond successfully finished the damow_walk()\nrequest cancelling.  Right after that, damos_walk() is called for the\ncontext.  It registers the new request, and shows the context is still\nrunning, because damon_ctx->kdamond unset is not yet done.  Hence the\ndamos_walk() caller starts waiting for the handling of the request. \nHowever, the kdamond is already on the termination steps, so it never\nhandles the new request.  As a result, the damos_walk() caller thread\ninfinitely waits.\n\nFix this by introducing another damon_ctx field, namely\nwalk_control_obsolete.  It is protected by the\ndamon_ctx->walk_control_lock, which protects damos_walk() request\nregistration.  Initialize (unset) it in kdamond_fn() before letting\ndamon_start() returns and set it just before the cancelling of the\nremaining damos_walk() request is executed.  damos_walk() reads the\nobsolete field under the lock and avoids adding a new request.\n\nAfter this change, only requests that are guaranteed to be handled or\ncancelled are registered.  Hence the after-registration DAMON context\ntermination check is no longer needed.  Remove it together.\n\nThe issue is found by sashiko [1].",
