Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-01-11 13:01:18 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sched/fair: Fix NEXT_BUDDY

Adam reports that enabling NEXT_BUDDY insta triggers a WARN in
pick_next_entity().

Moving clear_buddies() up before the delayed dequeue bits ensures
no ->next buddy becomes delayed. Further ensure no new ->next buddy
ever starts as delayed.
