IB/hfi1: Close race condition on user context disable and close When disabling and removing a receive context, it is possible for an asynchronous event (i.e IRQ) to occur. Because of this, there is a race between cleaning up the context, and the context being used by the asynchronous event. cpu 0 (context cleanup) rc->ref_count-- (ref_count == 0) hfi1_rcd_free() cpu 1 (IRQ (with rcd index)) rcd_get_by_index() lock ref_count+++ <-- reference count race (WARNING) return rcd unlock cpu 0 hfi1_free_ctxtdata() <-- incorrect free location lock remove rcd from array unlock free rcd This race will cause the following WARNING trace: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 175027 at include/linux/kref.h:52 hfi1_rcd_get_by_index+0x84/0xa0 [hfi1] CPU: 0 PID: 175027 Comm: IMB-MPI1 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G OE ------------ 3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64 #1 Hardware name: Intel Corporation S2600KP/S2600KP, BIOS SE5C610.86B.11.01.0076.C4.111920150602 11/19/2015 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x19/0x1b __warn+0xd8/0x100 warn_slowpath_null+0x1d/0x20 hfi1_rcd_get_by_index+0x84/0xa0 [hfi1] is_rcv_urgent_int+0x24/0x90 [hfi1] general_interrupt+0x1b6/0x210 [hfi1] __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x44/0x1c0 handle_irq_event_percpu+0x32/0x80 handle_irq_event+0x3c/0x60 handle_edge_irq+0x7f/0x150 handle_irq+0xe4/0x1a0 do_IRQ+0x4d/0xf0 common_interrupt+0x162/0x162 The race can also lead to a use after free which could be similar to: general protection fault: 0000 1 SMP CPU: 71 PID: 177147 Comm: IMB-MPI1 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G W OE ------------ 3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64 #1 Hardware name: Intel Corporation S2600KP/S2600KP, BIOS SE5C610.86B.11.01.0076.C4.111920150602 11/19/2015 task: ffff9962a8098000 ti: ffff99717a508000 task.ti: ffff99717a508000 __kmalloc+0x94/0x230 Call Trace: ? hfi1_user_sdma_process_request+0x9c8/0x1250 [hfi1] hfi1_user_sdma_process_request+0x9c8/0x1250 [hfi1] hfi1_aio_write+0xba/0x110 [hfi1] do_sync_readv_writev+0x7b/0xd0 do_readv_writev+0xce/0x260 ? handle_mm_fault+0x39d/0x9b0 ? pick_next_task_fair+0x5f/0x1b0 ? sched_clock_cpu+0x85/0xc0 ? __schedule+0x13a/0x890 vfs_writev+0x35/0x60 SyS_writev+0x7f/0x110 system_call_fastpath+0x22/0x27 Use the appropriate kref API to verify access.
