Al final de la funci\u00f3n de emisi\u00f3n, establecemos NETFS_RREQ_ALL_QUEUED para indicar al recolector que no vamos a emitir m\u00e1s subsolicitudes y que puede realizar las notificaciones finales y la limpieza. Ahora bien, esto no es un problema si la solicitud es sincr\u00f3nica (NETFS_RREQ_OFFLOAD_COLLECTION no est\u00e1 establecido), ya que la recopilaci\u00f3n de resultados se realizar\u00e1 en el subproceso y se nos garantiza una oportunidad para ejecutar el recolector. Sin embargo, si la solicitud es asincr\u00f3nica, la recopilaci\u00f3n se activa principalmente al finalizar las subsolicitudes que la ponen en cola en una cola de trabajo. Ahora bien, aqu\u00ed puede producirse una ejecuci\u00f3n si el subproceso de la aplicaci\u00f3n establece ALL_QUEUED despu\u00e9s de que finalice la \u00faltima subsolicitud. Esto se puede lograr m\u00e1s f\u00e1cilmente con el c\u00f3digo copy2cache (usado por Ceph), donde, en la rutina de recopilaci\u00f3n de una solicitud de lectura, se genera una solicitud de escritura as\u00edncrona para copiar datos a la cach\u00e9. Los folios se agregan a la solicitud de escritura a medida que se desbloquean, pero puede haber un retraso antes de que se configure ALL_QUEUED, ya que las subsolicitudes de escritura pueden completarse antes de que lleguemos a ese punto. Si todas las subsolicitudes de escritura han finalizado para el punto ALL_QUEUED, no ocurren m\u00e1s eventos y la recopilaci\u00f3n nunca se realiza, dejando la solicitud colgada. Para solucionar esto, ponga en cola el recopilador despu\u00e9s de configurar ALL_QUEUED. Esto es un poco forzado y podr\u00eda ser suficiente si no existen subsolicitudes. Tambi\u00e9n agregue un punto de seguimiento para realizar una referencia cruzada de ambas solicitudes en una operaci\u00f3n de copia a solicitud y agregue un seguimiento al punto de seguimiento netfs_rreq para indicar la configuraci\u00f3n de ALL_QUEUED."}], "id": "CVE-2025-38492", "lastModified": "2025-07-29T14:14:29.590", "metrics": {}, "published": "2025-07-28T12:15:31.367", "references": [{"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/110188a13c4853bd4c342e600ced4dfd26c3feb5"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/89635eae076cd8eaa5cb752f66538c9dc6c9fdc3"}], "sourceIdentifier": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "vulnStatus": "Awaiting Analysis"}
