Based on the syzcaller test case from dvyukov:08d0a261fe/gistfile1.txtThe slow (i.e.: failure to acquire) syscall exit from semtimedop() incorrectly assumed that the the same lock is acquired as it was at the initial syscall entry. This is wrong: - thread A: single semop semop(), sleeps - thread B: multi semop semop(), sleeps - thread A: woken up by signal/timeout With this sequence, the initial sem_lock() call locks the per-semaphore spinlock, and it is unlocked with sem_unlock(). The call at the syscall return locks the global spinlock. Because locknum is not updated, the following sem_unlock() call unlocks the per-semaphore spinlock, which is actually not locked. The fix is trivial: Use the return value from sem_lock.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
