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) * tag 'io_uring-7.3-20261002' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux: io_uring: fix task_work add use-after-free with SQPOLL io_uring/cmd_net: end TX_TIMESTAMP multishot when the CQ is full io_uring/zcrx: requeue multishot receives stopped by a local resource io_uring: initialize task context before running the BPF loop io_uring: zero big_cqe for aux CQEs on CQE32 rings io_uring: fix free entry check for 32b CQEs on CQE32 rings io_uring: only post the dummy skip CQE on CQE_MIXED rings io_uring/bpf_filter: mark source as COW when cloning filters

+# Select broken dependency issue
+# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+#
+# Test with:
+#
+# make KBUILD_KCONFIG=Documentation/kbuild/Kconfig.select-break menuconfig
+#
+# kconfig will not complain and enable this layout for configuration. This is
+# currently a feature of kconfig, given select was designed to be heavy handed.
+# Kconfig currently does not check the list of symbols listed on a symbol's
+# "select" list, this is done on purpose to help load a set of known required
+# symbols. Because of this use of select should be used with caution. An
+# example of this issue is below.
+#
+# The option B and C are clearly contradicting with respect to A.
+# However, when A is set, C can be set as well because Kconfig does not
+# visit the dependencies of the select target (in this case B). And since
+# Kconfig does not visit the dependencies, it breaks the dependencies of B
+# (!A).
