Merge tag 'io_uring-7.3-20261002' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linuxgrafted
Pull io_uring fixes from Jens Axboe:
- Fix a task_work add use-after-free with SQPOLL.
The sqpoll thread could pop and complete the last request while
io_req_normal_work_add() was still looking at them after the mpscq
push.
Use the same approach as DEFER_TASKRUN to protect from that, holding
an RCU read lock across the add, and have exit wait for an RCU grace
period for SQPOLL rings as well.
- CQE32 ring fixes: correct the free entry check for 32b CQEs, zero the
big_cqe for aux CQEs, and only post the dummy skip CQE on CQE_MIXED
rings
- Mark the source filter table as COW when cloning bpf filters, so
registering another filter on the source doesn't modify the shared
table in place
- Initialize the task context before running the BPF loop
- Requeue zcrx multishot receives stopped by a local resource
- End a TX_TIMESTAMP multishot cmd when the CQ is full (lollipopkit)
