[ Upstream commit 480d42dc001bbfe953825a92073012fcd5a99161 ] The timer callback used to evaluate if the latency is exceeded can be executed after the corresponding disk has been released, causing the following NULL pointer dereference: [ 119.987108] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000098 [ 119.987617] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode [ 119.987971] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page [ 119.988325] PGD 7c4a4067 P4D 7c4a4067 PUD 7bf63067 PMD 0 [ 119.988697] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI [ 119.988959] CPU: 1 PID: 9353 Comm: cloud-init Not tainted 5.15-rc5+arighi #rc5+arighi [ 119.989520] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.14.0-2 04/01/2014 [ 119.990055] RIP: 0010:wb_timer_fn+0x44/0x3c0 [ 119.990376] Code: 41 8b 9c 24 98 00 00 00 41 8b 94 24 b8 00 00 00 41 8b 84 24 d8 00 00 00 4d 8b 74 24 28 01 d3 01 c3 49 8b 44 24 60 48 8b 40 78 <4c> 8b b8 98 00 00 00 4d 85 f6 0f 84 c4 00 00 00 49 83 7c 24 30 00 [ 119.991578] RSP: 0000:ffffb5f580957da8 EFLAGS: 00010246 [ 119.991937] RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000004 [ 119.992412] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffff88f476d7f780 [ 119.992895] RBP: ffffb5f580957dd0 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 119.993371] R10: 0000000000000004 R11: 0000000000000002 R12: ffff88f476c84500 [ 119.993847] R13: ffff88f4434390c0 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffff88f4bdc98c00 [ 119.994323] FS: 00007fb90bcd9c00(0000) GS:ffff88f4bdc80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 119.994952] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 119.995380] CR2: 0000000000000098 CR3: 000000007c0d6000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 [ 119.995906] Call Trace: [ 119.996130] ? blk_stat_free_callback_rcu+0x30/0x30 [ 119.996505] blk_stat_timer_fn+0x138/0x140 [ 119.996830] call_timer_fn+0x2b/0x100 [ 119.997136] __run_timers.part.0+0x1d1/0x240 [ 119.997470] ? kvm_clock_get_cycles+0x11/0x20 [ 119.997826] ? ktime_get+0x3e/0xa0 [ 119.998110] ? native_apic_msr_write+0x2c/0x30 [ 119.998456] ? lapic_next_event+0x20/0x30 [ 119.998779] ? clockevents_program_event+0x94/0xf0 [ 119.999150] run_timer_softirq+0x2a/0x50 [ 119.999465] __do_softirq+0xcb/0x26f [ 119.999764] irq_exit_rcu+0x8c/0xb0 [ 120.000057] sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x43/0x90 [ 120.000429] ? asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0xa/0x20 [ 120.000836] asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x12/0x20 In this case simply return from the timer callback (no action required) to prevent the NULL pointer dereference.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
