cq_extra is protected by ->completion_lock, which io_get_sqe() misses. The bug is harmless as it doesn't happen in real life, requires invalid SQ index array and racing with submission, and only messes up the userspace, i.e. stall requests execution but will be cleaned up on ring destruction.

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.
