CVE-2026-89546

SUNRPC: close backchannel before destroying callback service

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

SUNRPC: close backchannel before destroying callback service

A backchannel receive can complete a request while the NFS callback

service is being torn down.  xprtcompletebc_request() removes the

request from bcpalist, drops bcalloccount, marks the request in use,

and then asks xprtenqueuebc_request() to hand it to the callback

service.

If teardown has already cleared xprt->bcserv, xprtenqueuebcrequest()

currently returns without enqueueing or freeing the committed request.

The xprt_get() taken on entry is leaked as well.  If the producer wins

the race before bcserv is cleared, it can also enqueue onto svcb_list

after nfscallbackdown() has stopped the callback threads, leaving the

request linked to a svc_serv that is about to be freed.

Close the producer side before callback threads are stopped.  Add

xprtsvcshutdownbc() to clear xprt->bcserv under bcpalock, and call

it on callback shutdown and callback-start failure before stopping the

service threads.  Requests that lose the NULL transition in

xprtenqueuebc_request() are released through the normal backchannel

free path after balancing bcslotcount.  Finally, drain any remaining

svcblist requests after the callback threads have stopped and before

svc_destroy() frees the service.
