In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: do not sense pfmemalloc status in skb_append_pagefrags() skb_append_pagefrags() is used by af_unix and udp sendpage() implementation so far. In commit 326140063946 ("tcp: TX zerocopy should not sense pfmemalloc status") we explained why we should not sense pfmemalloc status for pages owned by user space. We should also use skb_fill_page_desc_noacc() in skb_append_pagefrags() to avoid following KCSAN report: BUG: KCSAN: data-race in lru_add_fn / skb_append_pagefrags write to 0xffffea00058fc1c8 of 8 bytes by task 17319 on c
