From 0ace17d56824165c7f4c68785d6b58971db954dd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Palethorpe Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2020 14:42:58 +0100 Subject: can, slip: Protect tty->disc_data in write_wakeup and close with RCU write_wakeup can happen in parallel with close/hangup where tty->disc_data is set to NULL and the netdevice is freed thus also freeing disc_data. write_wakeup accesses disc_data so we must prevent close from freeing the netdev while write_wakeup has a non-NULL view of tty->disc_data. We also need to make sure that accesses to disc_data are atomic. Which can all be done with RCU. This problem was found by Syzkaller on SLCAN, but the same issue is reproducible with the SLIP line discipline using an LTP test based on the Syzkaller reproducer. A fix which didn't use RCU was posted by Hillf Danton.
