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

+ * SEALING
+ * Sealing allows multiple parties to share a tmpfs or hugetlbfs file

+ * parties can share common memory regions with a well-defined policy.
+ * A malicious peer can thus never perform unwanted operations on a
+ * shared object.
+ *
+ * Seals are only supported on special tmpfs or hugetlbfs files and
+ * always affect the whole underlying inode. Once a seal is set, it
+ * may prevent some kinds of access to the file. Currently, the
+ * following seals are defined:
+ * SEAL_SEAL: Prevent further seals from being set on this file
+ * SEAL_SHRINK: Prevent the file from shrinking
+ * SEAL_GROW: Prevent the file from growing
+ * SEAL_WRITE: Prevent write access to the file
+ * SEAL_EXEC: Prevent modification of the exec bits in the file mode
+ *
+ * As we don't require any trust relationship between two parties, we
+ * must prevent seals from being removed. Therefore, sealing a file
+ * only adds a given set of seals to the file, it never touches
+ * existing seals. Furthermore, the "setting seals"-operation can be
+ * sealed itself, which basically prevents any further seal from being
+ * added.
+ *
+ * Semantics of sealing are only defined on volatile files. Only
+ * anonymous tmpfs and hugetlbfs files support sealing. More
+ * importantly, seals are never written to disk. Therefore, there's
+ * no plan to support it on other file types.
