As of a17c2153d2e271b0cbacae9bed83b0eaa41db7e1 "SUNRPC: Move the bound cred to struct rpc_rqst", call_allocate attempts to do this by dereferencing tk_client->cl_auth, however this is not guaranteed to be defined--cl_auth can be zero in the case of gss context destruction (see rpc_free_auth). Reorder the client state machine to bind credentials before allocating, so that we can instead reach the auth through the cred. Signed-off-by: J.

As it turns out, there were two problems causing the crashes I saw. This one was the regression identified by the above commit. If this is actually the right approach, then we should probably also reorder these functions and fix the comments to reflect the new state-machine order. --b. diff --git a/net/sunrpc/clnt.c b/net/sunrpc/clnt.c index 2388d83..657aac6 100644 --- a/net/sunrpc/clnt.c +++ b/net/sunrpc/clnt.c @@ -931,7 +931,7 @@ call_reserveresult(struct rpc_task *task) task->tk_status = 0; if (status >= 0) { if (task->tk_rqstp) { - task->tk_action = call_allocate; + task->tk_action = call_refresh; return; } @@ -972,7 +972,7 @@ call_reserveresult(struct rpc_task *task) static void call_allocate(struct rpc_task *task) { - unsigned int slack = task->tk_client->cl_auth->au_cslack; + unsigned int slack = task->tk_rqstp->rq_cred->cr_auth->au_cslack; struct rpc_rqst *req = task->tk_rqstp; struct rpc_xprt *xprt = task->tk_xprt; struct rpc_procinfo *proc = task->tk_msg.rpc_proc; @@ -980,7 +980,7 @@ call_allocate(struct rpc_task *task) dprint_status(task); task->tk_status = 0; - task->tk_action = call_refresh; + task->tk_action = call_bind; if (req->rq_buffer) return; @@ -1042,7 +1042,7 @@ call_refreshresult(struct rpc_task *task) dprint_status(task); task->tk_status = 0; - task->tk_action = call_bind; + task->tk_action = call_allocate; if (status >= 0 && rpcauth_uptodatecred(task)) return; switch (status) { ^ permalink raw reply related [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com> If rpc_queue_upcall() adds a new upcall to the rpci->pipe list just after rpc_pipe_release calls rpc_purge_list(), but before it calls gss_pipe_release (as rpci->ops->release_pipe(inode)), then the latter will free a message without deleting it from the rpci->pipe list. We will be left with a freed object on the rpc->pipe list. Most frequent symptoms are kernel crashes in rpc.gssd system calls on the pipe in question. We could just add a list_del(&gss_msg->msg.list) here. But I can see no reason for doing all this cleanup here; the preceding rpc_purge_list() should have done the job, except possibly for any newly queued upcalls as above, which can safely be left to wait for another opener.

(Which is what the allocator fills an object with before handing back to someone; so apparently someone allocated it but didn't initialize most of it.) I can't see how the rpc code would return a client that looked like that. It allocates clients with kzalloc, for one thing. So all I can think is that we freed the client while it was still in use, and that memory got handed to someone else. There's only one place in the kernel code that frees rpc clients, in nfsd4_set_callback_client(). It is always called under the global state lock, and does essentially: *old = clp->cl_cb_client; clp->cl_cb_client = new; if (old) rpc_shutdown_client(old); where "new" is always either NULL or something just returned from rpc_create(). So I don't see any possible way that can call rpc_shutdown_client on the same thing twice. It could be a double-free inside the rpc code somewhere, but I haven't found any. This happened during the pynfs DELEG9 test over krb5i, but I can't reproduce it reliably. Bah. Anyone have debugging advice? --b. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

A use-after-free rpc call will do just that, since it takes a reference to the (freed up) rpc_client and releases it after it is done. Any chance you might be doing an rpc call that circumvents the callback_wq flush above? Cheers Trond ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

Running my default pynfs tests over krb5i a few times gets it in a few minutes. One factor may be that the callback address the pynfs client gives us is 0.0.0.0, which may be exercising an error path somewhere. Anyway, I think I'm close to having this. --b. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

Hi Bruce, Looking again at this issue, I think I see why the ->release_pipe() is needed. While the call to rpc_purge_list() does indeed clear the list of all those messages that are waiting for their upcall to complete, it does nothing for the messages that have successfully been read by the daemon, but are now waiting for a reply. How about something like the patch below instead? Cheers Trond ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUNRPC: Fix race corrupting rpc upcall From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> If rpc_queue_upcall() adds a new upcall to the rpci->pipe list just after rpc_pipe_release calls rpc_purge_list(), but before it calls gss_pipe_release (as rpci->ops->release_pipe(inode)), then the latter will free a message without deleting it from the rpci->pipe list. We will be left with a freed object on the rpc->pipe list. Most frequent symptoms are kernel crashes in rpc.gssd system calls on the pipe in question. Reported-by: J.
