Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: udf: Mark LVID buffer as uptodate before marking it dirty When an I/O error occurs while writing the Logical Volume Integrity Descriptor (LVID) buffer to the block device, the block layer's completion handler (`end_buffer_write_sync()`) clears the `BH_Uptodate` flag on the buffer. However, the buffer still contains valid LVID data in memory. If the filesystem is subsequently remounted read-write or synced, `udf_open_lvid()` or `udf_sync_fs()` will modify the LVID buffer and call `mark_buffer_dirty()`. This triggers a spurious `WARN_ON_ONCE(!buffer_uptodate(bh))` warning in `mark_buffer_dirty()` because the buffer is not marked uptodate, even though its in-memory contents are valid and are about to be overwritten. To prevent this spurious warning, unconditionally set the `BH_Uptodate` flag before calling `mark_buffer_dirty()` in `udf_open_lvid()` and `udf_sync_fs()`. This acknowledges that the in-memory buffer is valid and matches the workaround previously applied to `udf_close_lvid()` in commit 853a0c25baf9 ("udf: Mark LVID buffer as uptodate before marking it dirty"). Extending this workaround ensures consistent behavior across all LVID updates.
