This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled io_uring: statx must grab the file table for valid fd to the 5.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: io_uring-statx-must-grab-the-file-table-for-valid-fd.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit f47f6482ce6dc0bccde2ed5feb274ac38eb6707d Author: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Apr 27 10:41:22 2020 -0600 io_uring: statx must grab the file table for valid fd commit 5b0bbee4732cbd58aa98213d4c11a366356bba3d upstream. Clay reports that OP_STATX fails for a test case with a valid fd and empty path: -- Test 0: statx:fd 3: SUCCEED, file mode 100755 -- Test 1: statx:path ./uring_statx: SUCCEED, file mode 100755 -- Test 2: io_uring_statx:fd 3: FAIL, errno 9: Bad file descriptor -- Test 3: io_uring_statx:path ./uring_statx: SUCCEED, file mode 100755 This is due to statx not grabbing the process file table, hence we can't lookup the fd in async context. If the fd is valid, ensure that we grab the file table so we can grab the file from async context.
