io_uring/msg_ring: kill alloc_cache for io_kiocb allocations
[ Upstream commit df8922afc37aa2111ca79a216653a629146763ad ] A recent commit: fc582cd26e88 ("io_uring/msg_ring: ensure io_kiocb freeing is deferred for RCU") fixed an issue with not deferring freeing of io_kiocb structs that msg_ring allocates to after the current RCU grace period. But this only covers requests that don't end up in the allocation cache. If a request goes into the alloc cache, it can get reused before it is sane to do so. A recent syzbot report would seem to indicate that there's something there, however it may very well just be because of the KASAN poisoning that the alloc_cache handles manually. Rather than attempt to make the alloc_cache sane for that use case, just drop the usage of the alloc_cache for msg_ring request payload data. Fixes: 50cf5f3842af ("io_uring/msg_ring: add an alloc cache for io_kiocb entries") Link: https://lore.kernel.org/io-uring/68cc2687.050a0220.139b6.0005.GAE@google.com/ Reported-by: syzbot+baa2e0f4e02df602583e@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
