[PATCH] md/raid1: Fix use-after-free in reshape pool wait queue
From: Wang Jinchao
Date: Mon Jun 09 2025 - 08:02:47 EST
During raid1 reshape operations, a use-after-free can occur in the mempool
wait queue when r1bio_pool->curr_nr drops below min_nr. This happens
because:
1. mempool_init() initializes wait queue head on stack
2. The stack-allocated wait queue is copied to conf->r1bio_pool through
structure assignment
3. wake_up() on this invalid wait queue causes panic when accessing the
stack memory that no longer exists
Fix this by properly reinitializing the mempool's wait queue using
init_waitqueue_head(), ensuring the wait queue structure remains valid
throughout the reshape operation.
