Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fuse-uring: fix data races on ring->ready
On weakly-ordered architectures, the store to fiq->ops can be
reordered past the store to ring->ready, allowing a CPU that sees
ring->ready == true via fuse_uring_ready() to dispatch requests
through a stale fiq->ops pointer. Upgrade the store to
smp_store_release() and the load in fuse_uring_ready() to
smp_load_acquire() so that the preceding WRITE_ONCE(fiq->ops, ...)
is visible to any CPU that observes ring->ready == true.
Additionally, fuse_uring_do_register() publishes ring->ready with
WRITE_ONCE() but the fast-path check reads it with a plain load.
This is a marked-vs-unmarked access that KCSAN will flag. Wrap it in
READ_ONCE() to mark it without adding unnecessary ordering.
Also wrap the fc->ring load in fuse_uring_ready() in READ_ONCE() to
prevent the compiler from reloading it between the NULL check and the
dereference.
