Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-09-11 18:35 – Updated: 2025-11-25 21:32In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rcutorture: Fix rcutorture_one_extend_check() splat in RT kernels
For built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y kernels, running rcutorture tests resulted in the following splat:

Disable BH does not change the SOFTIRQ corresponding bits in preempt_count() for RT kernels, this commit therefore use softirq_count() to check the if BH is disabled.
