From b2f11c6f3e1fc60742673b8675c95b78447f3dae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kent Overstreet Date: Sat, 10 Aug 2024 21:04:35 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] lib/generic-radix-tree.c: Fix rare race in __genradix_ptr_alloc() If we need to increase the tree depth, allocate a new node, and then race with another thread that increased the tree depth before us, we'll still have a preallocated node that might be used later. If we then use that node for a new non-root node, it'll still have a pointer to the old root instead of being zeroed - fix this by zeroing it in the cmpxchg failure path.
