Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening
The lvm2 sequence to manage dm-raid constructor flags that trigger a
rebuild or a reshape is defined as:
1) load table with flags (e.g. rebuild/delta_disks/data_offset)
2) clear out the flags in lvm2 metadata
3) store the lvm2 metadata, reload the table to reset the flags
previously established during the initial load (1) -- in order to
prevent repeatedly requesting a rebuild or a reshape on activation
Currently, loading an inactive table with rebuild/reshape flags
specified will cause dm-raid to rebuild/reshape on resume and thus start
updating the raid metadata (about the progress). When the second table
reload, to reset the flags, occurs the constructor accesses the volatile
progress state kept in the raid superblocks. Because the active mapping
is still processing the rebuild/reshape, that position will be stale by
the time the device is resumed.
In the reshape case, this causes data corruption by processing already
reshaped stripes again. In the rebuild case, it does _not_ cause data
corruption but instead involves superfluous rebuilds.
Fix by keeping the raid set frozen during the first resume and then
allow the rebuild/reshape during the second resume.

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.
