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

    ALSA: seq: oss: Serialize readq reset state with q->lock

    snd_seq_oss_readq_clear() resets qlen, head, and tail without
    q->lock even though the normal reader and producer paths serialize the
    same ring state under that spinlock. A reset can therefore race
    snd_seq_oss_readq_free() or snd_seq_oss_readq_put_event() and leave
    stale records in the queue, drop freshly queued ones, or report the
    wrong readiness after wakeup. KCSAN reports a data race between
    snd_seq_oss_readq_clear() and snd_seq_oss_readq_free().

    Take q->lock while clearing the ring and resetting input_time. Factor
    the enqueue logic into a caller-locked helper so
    snd_seq_oss_readq_put_timestamp() updates its suppression state under
    the same lock instead of racing the reset path.

    The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the
    order within that path:

    reset path:                      locked readq updater:
    1. snd_seq_oss_reset() or        1. A reader or callback producer
       release reaches                  takes q->lock on the same queue.
       snd_seq_oss_readq_clear().
    2. snd_seq_oss_readq_clear()     2. The updater tests or modifies
       resets qlen, head, tail,         qlen, head, and tail.
       and input_time.

    4. Without q->lock, the reset    4. The resulting ring state drives
