commit 02a4d923e4400a36d340ea12d8058f69ebf3a383 upstream. When fixed files are unregistered, file_alloc_end and alloc_hint are not cleared. This can later cause a NULL pointer dereference in io_file_bitmap_get() if auto index selection is enabled via IORING_FILE_INDEX_ALLOC: [ 6.519129] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 [...] [ 6.541468] RIP: 0010:_find_next_zero_bit+0x1a/0x70 [...] [ 6.560906] Call Trace: [ 6.561322] <TASK> [ 6.561672] io_file_bitmap_get+0x38/0x60 [ 6.562281] io_fixed_fd_install+0x63/0xb0 [ 6.562851] ? __pfx_io_socket+0x10/0x10 [ 6.563396] io_socket+0x93/0xf0 [ 6.563855] ? __pfx_io_socket+0x10/0x10 [ 6.564411] io_issue_sqe+0x5b/0x3d0 [ 6.564914] io_submit_sqes+0x1de/0x650 [ 6.565452] __do_sys_io_uring_enter+0x4fc/0xb20 [ 6.566083] ? __do_sys_io_uring_register+0x11e/0xd80 [ 6.566779] do_syscall_64+0x3c/0x90 [ 6.567247] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x72/0xdc [...] To fix the issue, set file alloc range and alloc_hint to zero after file tables are freed.

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.
