      "title": "NFS: Charge unstable writes by request size, not folio size",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nNFS: Charge unstable writes by request size, not folio size\n\nnfs_folio_mark_unstable() and nfs_folio_clear_commit() charge and\nuncharge NR_WRITEBACK/WB_WRITEBACK by folio_nr_pages(folio) once per\n*request* added to or removed from a commit list. This is correct only\nwhen a folio has a single associated request. When pg_test splits a\nfolio into N sub-folio requests (e.g. pNFS flexfiles striping with a\nstripe unit smaller than the folio size, or plain wsize-limited\nsplitting), each of the N requests independently charges the whole\nfolio's page count, inflating the accounting by a factor of N per\nfolio. With large folios and small stripe units this reaches multiple\norders of magnitude: a 2 MiB folio split into 512 4 KiB requests can\ncharge up to 512x its real size, pushing global dirty+writeback\naccounting past the system's dirty threshold and forcing every\nbuffered writer on the host into the hard-throttle path, including\nunrelated in-kernel NFS server threads sharing the box.\n\nCharge each request only for the pages it actually covers.",
