CVE-2026-89530

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

svcrdma: Reject inline replies that overflow the pull-up buffer

An RPC-over-RDMA client can request a reply, such as an NFS READ
payload, without providing a Write list or a Reply chunk to carry
it. When such a reply needs more scatter/gather entries than the
device's Send Queue supports, svc_rdma_pull_up_needed() selects
pull-up and svc_rdma_pull_up_reply_msg() linearizes the whole
reply into sctxt->sc_xprt_buf. That buffer is only sc_max_req_size
bytes, while the reply on this path is bounded only by the client's
request, so svc_rdma_xb_linearize() copies past the end of the
buffer and corrupts adjacent slab memory. The oversized length is
then stored in sc_sges[0].length and posted, so the device also
reads beyond the mapped region.

The SGE-exhaustion branch is the only pull-up path that can exceed
the buffer: the threshold branch pulls up only replies smaller
than RPCRDMA_PULLUP_THRESH, and replies that fit the device's SGE
budget are sent directly without linearization. Make
svc_rdma_pull_up_needed() report -E2BIG when the reply it would
pull up cannot fit sc_max_req_size, and fail the request with
ERR_CHUNK as RFC 8166 Section 4.5.3 directs rather than dropping
the connection.

The helper no longer answers a simple yes/no question: it now
reports pull-up, no pull-up, or -E2BIG for a reply too large to
linearize. Rename svc_rdma_pull_up_needed() to
svc_rdma_check_pull_up() so its name no longer implies a boolean
predicate.
