I don't have a strong preference for 6.17, beyond landing a fix of some kind. I think there are three options for 6.17, in order of "least like to break something": 1. Sebastian's get_task_struct() fix 2. This series, without the KILLED sanity check in __vhost_task_wake() 3. This series, with my fixup (with which syzbot was happy) Longer term, I'd still like to land everything though. > > Sean? > > Since I am in To: here. You want me to resent my diff as a proper patch? Ya, I think it makes sense to harden against UAF even if we fix the KVM bug more directly.
