Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
fs: quota: create dedicated workqueue for quota_release_work<br />
<br />
There is a kernel panic due to WARN_ONCE when panic_on_warn is set.<br />
<br />
This issue occurs when writeback is triggered due to sync call for an<br />
opened file(ie, writeback reason is WB_REASON_SYNC). When f2fs balance<br />
is needed at sync path, flush for quota_release_work is triggered.<br />
By default quota_release_work is queued to "events_unbound" queue which<br />
does not have WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag. During f2fs balance "writeback"<br />
workqueue tries to flush quota_release_work causing kernel panic due to<br />
MEM_RECLAIM flag mismatch errors.<br />
<br />
This patch creates dedicated workqueue with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag<br />
for work quota_release_work.<br />
