Updating LP bug to SRU justification format. ** Description changed:
- 2.2.2-0ubuntu9 has the 6.7 compat series, including https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/commit/db4fc559cc1931b9219e62aa505cd5c51a17b232, but does not include the fix for that commit (affects both pre-6.7 and post-6.7), + [Impact] + + * 2.2.2-0ubuntu9 has the 6.7 compat series, including https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/commit/db4fc559cc1931b9219e62aa505cd5c51a17b232, but does not include the fix for that commit (affects both pre-6.7 and post-6.7), https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/commit/f0bf7a247dbb030d68c7fd2b5526dd111cc775d0. This manifests for me on the current (6.8.0-40.40~22.04.3) 22.04 HWE kernel as writes to a file resetting atime back to 0 (reads still seem to work as expected though given that state), which of course breaks real-world things (in my case, I can no longer successfully run LLVM's test suite). Thanks to CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO=y being the default it seems like this isn't a kernel memory disclosure and is instead a deterministic use of 0, so I don't believe this to be a blatant security vulnerability. This also explains the behaviour observed above. This needs fixing in noble, and then propagating back through whatever kernels are pulling in this version, since linux-modules vendors copies of the pre-built DKMS modules, with the current 6.8 HWE kernel using 2.2.2-0ubuntu9 explicitly. + + [Fix] + + * Include f0bf7a247dbb: "[PATCH] Linux 6.7 compat: zfs_setattr fix atime + update" from upstream ZFS as quilt patch. + + [Test Case] + + * Build tested against Noble generic + * Ran autopkgktests for regressions, none encountered + + [Where things could go wrong] + + * Low chance of regression, isolated instantiation and logic fix. + * Addition of time delta check could cause issues during unexpected delay > 2 seconds. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2077487 Title: Broken atime in 2.2.2-0ubuntu9 (noble's version) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux-hwe-6.8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Noble: New Status in linux-hwe-6.8 source package in Noble: Invalid Status in zfs-linux source package in Noble: In Progress Bug description: [Impact] * 2.2.2-0ubuntu9 has the 6.7 compat series, including https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/commit/db4fc559cc1931b9219e62aa505cd5c51a17b232, but does not include the fix for that commit (affects both pre-6.7 and post-6.7), https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/commit/f0bf7a247dbb030d68c7fd2b5526dd111cc775d0.
