In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix race between async reclaim worker and close_ctree() Syzbot reported an assertion failure due to an attempt to add a delayed iput after we have set BTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DELAYED_IPUT in the fs_info state: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 65 at fs/btrfs/inode.c:3420 btrfs_add_delayed_iput+0x2f8/0x370 fs/btrfs/inode.c:3420 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 65 Comm: kworker/u8:4 Not tainted 6.15.0-next-20250530-syzkaller #0 PREEMPT(full) Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 05/07/2025 Workqueue: btrfs-endio-write btrfs_work_helper RIP: 0010:btrfs_add_delayed_iput+0x2f8/0x370 fs/btrfs/inode.c:3420 Code: 4e ad 5d (...)

Fix this by setting BTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DELAYED_IPUT only after we wait for the async reclaim workers to finish, after we call cancel_work_sync() for them at close_ctree(), and by running delayed iputs after wait for the reclaim workers to finish and before setting the bit. This race was recently introduced by commit 19e60b2a95f5 ("btrfs: add extra warning if delayed iput is added when it's not allowed"). Without the new validation at btrfs_add_delayed_iput(), ---truncated---
