[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 01/30] batman-adv: Fix list removal of batadv_hardif_neigh_node

[Sven Eckelmann]

The neigh_list with batadv_hardif_neigh_node objects is accessed with only
rcu_read_lock in batadv_neigh_node_get and batadv_iv_neigh_print. Thus it
is not allowed to kfree the object before the rcu grace period ends (which
may still protects context accessing this object). Therefore the object has
first to be removed from the neigh_list and then it has either wait with
synchronize_rcu or call_rcu till the grace period ends before it can be
freed.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 02/30] batman-adv: Avoid recursive call_rcu for batadv_bla_claim

[Sven Eckelmann]

The batadv_hardif_neigh_free_ref function uses call_rcu to delay the free
of the batadv_bla_claim object until no (already started) rcu_read_lock is
enabled anymore. This makes sure that no context is still trying to access
the object which should be removed. But batadv_bla_claim also contains a
reference to backbone_gw which must be removed.

The reference drop of backbone_gw was done in the call_rcu function
batadv_claim_free_rcu but should actually be done in the
batadv_claim_release function to avoid nested call_rcus. This is important
because rcu_barrier (e.g. batadv_softif_free or batadv_exit) will not
detect the inner call_rcu as relevant for its execution. Otherwise this
barrier will most likely be inserted in the queue before the callback of
the first call_rcu was executed. The caller of rcu_barrier will therefore
continue to run before the inner call_rcu callback finished.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 08/30] batman-adv: Drop immediate neigh_ifinfo free function

[Sven Eckelmann]

It is not allowed to free the memory of an object which is part of a list
which is protected by rcu-read-side-critical sections without making sure
that no other context is accessing the object anymore. This usually happens
by removing the references to this object and then waiting until the rcu
grace period is over and no one (allowedly) accesses it anymore.

But the _now functions ignore this completely. They free the object
directly even when a different context still tries to access it. This has
to be avoided and thus these functions must be removed and all functions
have to use batadv_neigh_ifinfo_free_ref.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 14/30] batman-adv: Convert batadv_softif_vlan to kref

batman-adv uses a self-written reference implementation which is just based
on atomic_t. This is less obvious when reading the code than kref and
therefore increases the change that the reference counting will be missed.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 29/30] batman-adv: Convert batadv_tt_common_entry to kref

[Sven Eckelmann]

batman-adv uses a self-written reference implementation which is just based
on atomic_t. This is less obvious when reading the code than kref and
therefore increases the change that the reference counting will be missed.

[B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 30/30] batman-adv: Rename *_free_ref function to *_put

[Sven Eckelmann]

The batman-adv source code is the only place in the kernel which uses the
*_free_ref naming scheme for the *_put functions. Changing it to *_put
makes it more consistent and makes it easier to understand the connection
to the *_get functions.

Urgh, could catch, that's a nasty one! Should be put into maint at

Nit: I think you mean "batadv_hardif_neigh_get" instead of
"batadv_neigh_node_get" in the commit message?

batadv_nc_node_release instead of batadv_claim_release?

Hrmpf, right, the rcu callback scheduler does not ensure that
everything else is outside of an rcu-read-critical section... My
bad. Your solution looks better :).

Re: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 05/30] batman-adv: Drop immediate batadv_orig_ifinfo free function

[Linus Lüssing]

Generally looks good to me. But seems to do more than the title
says?

It also fixes a nested call_rcu via batadv_nc_purge_orig and a
bogus batadv_neigh_node_free_ref_now call?

Hm, this trades one bug for an intermediate one, a nested
call-rcu. Swapping this patch with patch number 9 to avoid this?
(tried that an the diffs seem cleaner to me after swapping; or am
I missing something?)

Despite from that, both patches 7 and 9 seem sane to me.

Actually, forget about that. Just noticed, one way or another
there will be one intermediate bug. Don't see another way for that
right now either.

Wrong patch for that function name change

A few of the newly introduced _release() functions have this "and
possibly free it" renamed to "and possibly release it", some
don't.

Re: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH v2 01/30] batman-adv: Fix list removal of batadv_hardif_neigh_node

[Linus Lüssing]

The whole patchset looks pretty good to me.

Checked all patches for bugs but couldn't find any - could only
find minor style issues.

Patches 1 to 9 are definitely a must for maint. Nasty bugs...


Did not check:

* Whether "Fixes:" tags match
* How kref compares to atomic_t under the hood, whether it is
  currently basically the same or whether a switch fixes some bugs

Great patchset! :)

Cheers, Linus


PS: Just to clarify, patch 10 is only a style patch, right?

Thanks for the review. I've already started to fix the stuff you found. I will 
submit the new patchset (v4) later.

kref is basically a wrapper around atomic_t. So it should not fix any bugs.

> PS: Just to clarify, patch 10 is only a style patch, right?

Yes, it is more a style patch to make everything more consistent.

Kind regards,
