Subject: io_uring/fdinfo: lock SQ thread while retrieving thread cpu/pid
From: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 7644b1a1c9a7ae8ab99175989bfc8676055edb46 upstream.
We could race with SQ thread exit, and if we do, we'll hit a NULL pointer
dereference when the thread is cleared. Grab the SQPOLL data lock before
attempting to get the task cpu and pid for fdinfo, this ensures we have a
stable view of it.
