Pavel Begunkov f1d96a8fcb io_uring: NULL-deref for IOSQE_{ASYNC,DRAIN}
Processing links, io_submit_sqe() prepares requests, drops sqes, and
passes them with sqe=NULL to io_queue_sqe(). There IOSQE_DRAIN and/or
IOSQE_ASYNC requests will go through the same prep, which doesn't expect
sqe=NULL and fail with NULL pointer deference.

Always do full prepare including io_alloc_async_ctx() for linked
requests, and then it can skip the second preparation.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
