ipmi: fix sleep-in-atomic in free_user at cleanup SRCU user->release_barrier commit 3b9a907223d7f6b9d1dadea29436842ae9bcd76d upstream. free_user() could be called in atomic context. This patch pushed the free operation off into a workqueue. Example: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/workqueue.c:2856 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 177, name: ksoftirqd/27 CPU: 27 PID: 177 Comm: ksoftirqd/27 Not tainted 4.19.25-3 #1 Hardware name: AIC 1S-HV26-08/MB-DPSB04-06, BIOS IVYBV060 10/21/2015 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x5c/0x7b ___might_sleep+0xec/0x110 __flush_work+0x48/0x1f0 ? try_to_del_timer_sync+0x4d/0x80 _cleanup_srcu_struct+0x104/0x140 free_user+0x18/0x30 [ipmi_msghandler] ipmi_free_recv_msg+0x3a/0x50 [ipmi_msghandler] deliver_response+0xbd/0xd0 [ipmi_msghandler] deliver_local_response+0xe/0x30 [ipmi_msghandler] handle_one_recv_msg+0x163/0xc80 [ipmi_msghandler] ? dequeue_entity+0xa0/0x960 handle_new_recv_msgs+0x15c/0x1f0 [ipmi_msghandler] tasklet_action_common.isra.22+0x103/0x120 __do_softirq+0xf8/0x2d7 run_ksoftirqd+0x26/0x50 smpboot_thread_fn+0x11d/0x1e0 kthread+0x103/0x140 ? sort_range+0x20/0x20 ? kthread_destroy_worker+0x40/0x40 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x40 Fixes: 77f8269606bf ("ipmi: fix use-after-free of user->release_barrier.rda") Reported-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@yandex-team.ru> Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 5.0 Cc: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
