In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md: fix resync softlockup when bitmap size is less than array size
Is is reported that for dm-raid10, lvextend + lvchange --syncaction will
trigger following softlockup:
kernel:watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 26s! [mdX_resync:6976]
CPU: 7 PID: 3588 Comm: mdX_resync Kdump: loaded Not tainted 6.9.0-rc4-next-20240419 #1
RIP: 0010:_raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x13/0x30
Call Trace:
<TASK>
md_bitmap_start_sync+0x6b/0xf0
raid10_sync_request+0x25c/0x1b40 [raid10]
md_do_sync+0x64b/0x1020
md_thread+0xa7/0x170
kthread+0xcf/0x100
ret_from_fork+0x30/0x50
ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30
And the detailed process is as follows:
md_do_sync
j = mddev->resync_min
while (j < max_sectors)
sectors = raid10_sync_request(mddev, j, &skipped)
if (!md_bitmap_start_sync(..., &sync_blocks))
// md_bitmap_start_sync set sync_blocks to 0
return sync_blocks + sectors_skippe;
// sectors = 0;
j += sectors;
// j never change
Root cause is that commit 301867b1c168 ("md/raid10: check
slab-out-of-bounds in md_bitmap_get_counter") return early from
md_bitmap_get_counter(), without setting returned blocks.
Fix this problem by always set returned blocks from
md_bitmap_get_counter"(), as it used to be.
Noted that this patch just fix the softlockup problem in kernel, the
case that bitmap size doesn't match array size still need to be fixed.
