[PATCH v4] iomap: fix WARN_ON_ONCE() from unprivileged users

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It is trivial to trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE(1) in iomap_dio_actor() by
unprivileged users which would taint the kernel, or worse - panic if
panic_on_warn or panic_on_taint is set. Hence, just convert it to
pr_warn_ratelimited() to let users know their workloads are racing.
Thank Dave Chinner for the initial analysis of the racing reproducers.

v4: use %pD4.
v3: Keep the default case and update the message.
v2: Record the path, pid and command as well.
