[PATCH 6.6.y 1/2] Bluetooth: hci_sync: Set HCI_CMD_DRAIN_WORKQUEUE during device close

From: Artem Dinaburg

Date: Thu Oct 15 2026 - 22:15:16 EST


From: Heitor Alves de Siqueira <halves@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 525daaea459fc215f432de1b8debbd9144bf97b0 ]

Since hci_dev_close_sync() can now be called during the reset path, we
should also set HCI_CMD_DRAIN_WORKQUEUE. This avoids queuing timeouts
while the hdev workqueue is being drained.

Fixes: 877afadad2dc ("Bluetooth: When HCI work queue is drained, only queue chained work")

Hi,

Please consider this backport of the fix for CVE-2026-63974 to 6.6.y.

The code changes are identical to upstream.

The complete fix is already present in 6.12.y, 6.18.y and 7.2.y.

Build-tested only as part of a cumulative 6.6.y series on x86_64
(allmodconfig, CONFIG_WERROR=y); no runtime testing.

Thanks,
Artem Dinaburg
