It is keep to get the statistics printout at the end if with bad argument,
what's your opinion about this version？

Hello, Kefeng,
Well, it does look like it would prevent the NULL pointer dereference,
but I was hoping for something that would print the full statistics
at the end regardless of the periodic statistics.
But I am adding Davidlohr on CC, as he seems to be the major user
of locktorture.
Thanx, Paul

You actually want mutex_lock here, we always use the _lock suffix, mainly
because it all started out with spin_lock. And you just showed how fragile
this is -- I'd say most of use use this module in a scripted setup, which
is why it was not seen before.

So we shouldn't be doing anything with statistics here in the first place, as
it was a bogus argument. Instead, we should just exit with EINVAL. Something
like the below does the trick for me.

Yes, it works, but what you are doing is to revert commit a36a99618b1adb2d6ca0b7e08e3a656a04e477fe

locktorture: Fix module unwind when bad torture_type specified
The locktorture module has a list of torture types, and specifying
a type not on this list is supposed to cleanly fail the module load.
Unfortunately, the "fail" happens without the "cleanly". This commit
therefore adds the needed clean-up after an incorrect torture_type.
If we revert it, the cleanup is not completely after insmod lockture with bad torture_type,
we can't insmod lockture with correct argument anymore, we will get following print,
-bash-4.3# insmod locktorture.ko torture_type=mutex

And what Paul wanted is something that would print the full statistics
at the end regardless of the periodic statistics.
I prefer my version 2, here is some log with my patch v2, it is keep consistent
with rcutorture.

How can the above be a successful run (SUCCESS string) if we didn't pass a
valid torture_type? iow, there is no test without it. Just think of passing
the wrong param in a userland application, 99.999% of the tools simply error
out complaining about the bogus input.
I think the right approach would be to decouple the statistics from the cleanup,
that way we can still do the required cleanups and avoid any stats.
Thanks,

Just like I mentioned before, keep consistent with rcutorture，I am happy to any
way to solve this issue,
To Paul， what's your advice?

Hmmm... If nothing happened, then I agree that it makes sense not to
print any statistics. But if some testing actually was carried out, then
we really need to print the statistics.

Because rcutorture does it doesn't mean locktorture has to do it ;)
In any case, I'd suggest the same be done for rcutorture.

Right, so how about the following? It introduces an early cleanup helper
that all it does is do torture specific cleanups. I don't really love the
begin/end calls there, but it's not the end of the world and it seems better
than a more messier refactoring. ie, I had also considered adding an 'early'
flag to lock_torture_cleanup() such that we can enable it for this bogus param
scenario, but seems over complicating things and we also call it for such a
small issue.
Thanks,

Even if we merge Davidlohr's patch, I think we still need my v2 patch,
here is a scene,
----------
cxt.lwsa = kmalloc(sizeof(*cxt.lwsa) * cxt.nrealwriters_stress, GFP_KERNEL);
if (cxt.lwsa == NULL) {
goto unwind;
}
or
cxt.lrsa = kmalloc(sizeof(*cxt.lrsa) * cxt.nrealreaders_stress, GFP_KERNEL);
if (cxt.lrsa == NULL) {
VERBOSE_TOROUT_STRING("cxt.lrsa: Out of memory");
firsterr = -ENOMEM;
kfree(cxt.lwsa);
goto unwind;
}
----------
we will get cxt.lwsa = NULL, and go to cleanup, then in
static void __torture_print_stats(char *page,
struct lock_stress_stats *statp, bool write)
{
bool fail = 0;
int i, n_stress;
long max = 0;
long min = statp[0].n_lock_acquired; // here, *we will meet NULL pointer dereference*
}
and my patch v2 solve this issue too, so it is still needed.
Thanks,
Kefeng

You are correct here, although very unlikely to hit a ENOMEM path, and because
of the nature of the module, you have bigger problems than this anyway. That said,
yes my patch only addresses this partially.
>and my patch v2 solve this issue too, so it is still needed.
But your patch is still too ad-hoc and still does not strike me to be the
correct way of dealing with the issue due to the already mentioned issues.
Lets instead think about how we call lock_torture_cleanup().
Callers are failed paths when loading the module, timed-shutdown and module_exit.
All of these assume there is at least the writer stats existing (lwsa). That's
actually why we have the "Start of test" shown immediately after doing basic checks.
In my patch I had just assumed this was limited to sanitizing parameters, and
overlooked mem allocation bits.
The below should take care of both issues, what do you think?
Thanks,
Davidlohr

Subject: [PATCH] locktorture: Fix nil pointer dereferencing for cleanup paths
It has been found that paths that invoke cleanups through
lock_torture_cleanup() can incur in nil pointer dereferencing
bugs during the statistics printing phase. This is mainly
because we should not be calling into statistics before we are
sure things have been setup correctly.
Specifically, early checks (and the need for handling this in
the cleanup call) only include parameter checks and basic
statistics allocation. Once we start write/read kthreads
we then consider the test as started. As such, update the func
in question to check for cxt.lwsa writer stats, if not set,
we either have a bogus parameter or ENOMEM situation and
therefore only need to deal with general torture calls.

fyi I've found another issue, completely unrelated to this one. We can
deref a nil ptr in the rtmutex torturing, which I hit last night.
><8-------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Subject: [PATCH] locktorture: Fix nil pointer dereferencing for cleanup paths
Paul, so we would need this patch, assuming Kefeng is good with it (if so
could you please add a reported/tested-by tag?). As well as this next one,
unless you have any problems with the fix obviously.
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] locktorture: Fix deboosting nil ptr dereferencing
For the case of rtmutex torturing we will randomly call into the
boost() handler, including upon module exiting when the tasks are
deboosted before stopping. In such cases the task may or may not have
already been boosted, and therefore the NULL being explicitly passed
can occur anywhere. Currently we only assume that the task will is
at a higher prio, and in consequence, dereference a nil pointer.
This patch fixes the case of a rmmod locktorture exploding while
pounding on the rtmutex lock (partial trace):

I am taking it into account, note that we kfree lwsa if lrsa fails memory
allocation. Of course we should be defensive, so go ahead and explicitly set
it to nil. v2 below, otherwise same patch.
