Subject: tipc: eliminate risk of finding to-be-deleted node instance
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b170997acedc6c11ed2ec07b8d415601e65bb452;p=linux-beck.git

tipc: eliminate risk of finding to-be-deleted node instance

Although we have never seen it happen, we have identified the
following problematic scenario when nodes are stopped and deleted:

CPU0:                            CPU1:

tipc_node_xxx()                                   //ref == 1
   tipc_node_put()                                //ref -> 0
                                 tipc_node_find() // node still in table
       tipc_node_delete()
         list_del_rcu(n. list)
                                 tipc_node_get()  //ref -> 1, bad
         kfree_rcu()

                                 tipc_node_put() //ref to 0 again.
                                 kfree_rcu()     // BOOM!

We fix this by introducing use of the conditional kref_get_if_not_zero()
instead of kref_get() in the function tipc_node_find(). This eliminates
any risk of post-mortem access.
