This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled crypto: seqiv - Handle EBUSY correctly to the 5.10-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: crypto-seqiv-handle-ebusy-correctly.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 65fb982e69cbc771fdf16e4d9a4c22b3437629a1 Author: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jan 13 18:27:51 2023 +0800 crypto: seqiv - Handle EBUSY correctly [ Upstream commit 32e62025e5e52fbe4812ef044759de7010b15dbc ] As it is seqiv only handles the special return value of EINPROGERSS, which means that in all other cases it will free data related to the request. However, as the caller of seqiv may specify MAY_BACKLOG, we also need to expect EBUSY and treat it in the same way. Otherwise backlogged requests will trigger a use-after-free.
