Subject: [PATCH] /dev/mem: Bail out upon SIGKILL when reading memory.
Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2019 07:06:51 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1566338811-4464-1-git-send-email-penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> (raw)

syzbot found that a thread can stall for minutes inside read_mem()
after that thread was killed by SIGKILL [1]. Reading 2GB at one read()
is legal, but delaying termination of killed thread for minutes is bad.

  [ 1335.912419][T20577] read_mem: sz=4096 count=2134565632
  [ 1335.943194][T20577] read_mem: sz=4096 count=2134561536
  [ 1335.978280][T20577] read_mem: sz=4096 count=2134557440
  [ 1336.011147][T20577] read_mem: sz=4096 count=2134553344
  [ 1336.041897][T20577] read_mem: sz=4096 count=2134549248
