container_of() never returns NULL. Hence remove the code that tests whether container_of() returns NULL.

PATCH 2/3 IB/umad: Fix error handling

In reply to a message not in the archive

Avoid leaking a kref count in ib_umad_open() if port->ib_dev == NULL or if nonseekable_open() fails. Avoid leaking a kref count, that sm_sem is kept down and also that the IB_PORT_SM capability mask is not cleared in ib_umad_sm_open() if nonseekable_open() fails.

PATCH 3/3 IB/umad: Fix a use-after-free

In reply to a message not in the archive

Avoid that closing /dev/infiniband/umad<n> or /dev/infiniband/issm<n> triggers a use-after-free. __fput() in fs/file_table.c invokes f_op->release() before it invokes cdev_put(). Make sure that the ib_umad_device structure is freed by the cdev_put() call instead of f_op->release(). This avoids that changing the port mode from IB into Ethernet and back to IB followed by restarting opensmd triggers the following kernel oops:

I dislike jump backward, why not unconditionally call kref_put() in the error path and return ret here.

This way you could drop fail label and the test on ret in the default code path.

Does this mean that you are not aware that setting the return code before an if-test is a common coding style in the Linux kernel ? See e.g. kernel/futex.c or kernel/events/core.c for other examples.

One chunk in patch 3/3 touches code that is also touched by this patch. This means that if only patches 2/3 and 3/3 would be sent to stable that these wouldn't apply properly. Hence the "Cc: stable" tag in this patch.

Does this mean that you are not aware that setting the return code before an if-test is a common coding style in the Linux kernel ? See e.g. kernel/futex.c or kernel/events/core.c for other examples.

Perhaps, but it's nowhere else in user_mad.c

container_of() never returns NULL. Hence remove the code that tests whether container_of() returns NULL.

The patch seems fine.

But I don't think this one qualify for linux-stable.

One chunk in patch 3/3 touches code that is also touched by this patch. This means that if only patches 2/3 and 3/3 would be sent to stable that these wouldn't apply properly. Hence the "Cc: stable" tag in this patch.

You could re-order the patches to make this one apply on top of the two others.

Anyway, it's a minor issue that doesn't justifiy by itself to respin the patchset. But if you're going to take account of my others remarks, it might be worth to reorder the patchset.

Regards.

v3 cover Fix a use-after-free in ib_umad

Changes compared to version 2 of this patch series:
* Converted explicit kobject() get calls into implicit calls by moving the kobj.parent assignments in front of the corresponding cdev_add() calls.

Changes compared to version 1 of this patch series:
* Folded the first patch into the second.
* Implemented Yann's suggestion to drop the test of "ret" in the non-error path of ib_umad_sm_open().
* Simplified the implementation of ib_umad_open() and ib_umad_sm_open() further.

This patch series consists of the following two patches:
0001-IB-umad-Fix-error-handling.patch 0002-IB-umad-Fix-a-use-after-free.patch

PATCH v3 1/2 IB/umad: Fix error handling

In reply to a message not in the archive

Avoid leaking a kref count in ib_umad_open() if port->ib_dev == NULL or if nonseekable_open() fails. Avoid leaking a kref count, that sm_sem is kept down and also that the IB_PORT_SM capability mask is not cleared in ib_umad_sm_open() if nonseekable_open() fails. Since container_of() never returns NULL, remove the code that tests whether container_of() returns NULL. Note: moving the kref_get() call from the start of ib_umad_*open() to the end is safe since it is the responsibility of the caller of these functions to ensure that the cdev pointer remains valid until at least when these functions return.

PATCH v3 2/2 IB/umad: Fix a use-after-free

In reply to a message not in the archive

Avoid that closing /dev/infiniband/umad<n> or /dev/infiniband/issm<n> triggers a use-after-free. __fput() in fs/file_table.c invokes f_op->release() before it invokes cdev_put(). Make sure that the ib_umad_device structure is freed by the cdev_put() call instead of f_op->release(). This avoids that changing the port mode from IB into Ethernet and back to IB followed by restarting opensmd triggers the following kernel oops:

There's now a equal number of kobject_init() + kobject_get() and kobject_put() (not counting one in the error path), so this sound well balanced.

PATCH 1/1 IB/umad: Fix error handling

In reply to a message not in the archive

From: Bart Van Assche <[email protected]>

Avoid leaking a kref count in ib_umad_open() if port->ib_dev == NULL or if nonseekable_open() fails. Avoid leaking a kref count, that sm_sem is kept down and also that the IB_PORT_SM capability mask is not cleared in ib_umad_sm_open() if nonseekable_open() fails. Since container_of() never returns NULL, remove the code that tests whether container_of() returns NULL. Note: moving the kref_get() call from the start of ib_umad_*open() to the end is safe since it is the responsibility of the caller of these functions to ensure that the cdev pointer remains valid until at least when these functions return.

Cc Alex Chiang <[email protected]>
Cc Yann Droneaud <[email protected]>
[[email protected]: rework a bit to reduce the amount of code changed]

---
Hi Bart,

Please find a slightly modified version of your patch to simplify a bit the error paths (no backward goto's) and to reduces the amount of lines touched.

I wasn't able to explain it clearly enough in the previous patch review, so I've made the changes directly in the file and propose the modified patch for you to review.

As it's only suggestion, feel free to integrate the changes in your patch or discard them.

Regards.

Re: [PATCH v3.1] IB/umad: Fix error handling

Please find a slightly modified version of your patch to simplify a bit the error paths (no backward goto's) and to reduces the amount of lines touched.

I wasn't able to explain it clearly enough in the previous patch review, so I've made the changes directly in the file and propose the modified patch for you to review.

As it's only suggestion, feel free to integrate the changes in your patch or discard them.

Hello Yann,

It seems like our opinions about backward goto's are different :-) I thought these are common at the end of error handling code in the Linux kernel. Anyway, what matters to me is that a fix gets upstream, not which fix. But please do not expect me to spend more time testing a patch that has been reworked only because of the coding style aspects mentioned in your e-mail.

Bart.

Having a shorter diff might help to get the patch applied upstream. YMMV.

PATCH RESEND 1/1 IB/umad: Fix a use-after-free

In reply to Yann Droneaud

From: Bart Van Assche <[email protected]>

Avoid that closing /dev/infiniband/umad<n> or /dev/infiniband/issm<n> triggers a use-after-free. __fput() in fs/file_table.c invokes f_op->release() before it invokes cdev_put(). Make sure that the ib_umad_device structure is freed by the cdev_put() call instead of f_op->release(). This avoids that changing the port mode from IB into Ethernet and back to IB followed by restarting opensmd triggers the following kernel oops:

general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

Hi Bart and Roland,

It seems this one was not rolled in your latest katamari[1]. Since the original patch didn't apply on top of commit 8ec0a0e6b58 ('IB/umad: Fix error handling'), I've applied it manually and resend it for review and inclusion.

I hope having correctly set the Cc: [email protected] tag to state the dependency on earlier patch.

[1] this term is actually used by Xorg to team to describe the process of gathering each little tiny piece needed for a release :) By the way, it's also a video game.

Regards.
