[DRM] drm_get_connector_name internal static string buffer causes a race

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




Hello guys,

I've been playing with reloading intel gfx driver (i915) in a cycle, for a while,
and at some point I've found a non-deterministic kernel crash with a highly-variable
iteration dependency -- 2 to 200 driver reload iterations.

The apparent race is over the shared internal string buffer in drm_get_connector_name().
It is mostly harmless, due to its results being mostly used for log output, but in at least one
case  -- drm_sysfs_connector_add() -- this leads to a more critical error.

Race scenario:

- drm_sysfs_connector_add()
   - drm_get_connector_name()
vs.
- anything that generates log messages involving DRM connectors
   - drm_get_connector_name()

 (and many other from drm_crtc.c) shares with caller const char* to internal static char buffer.
If something call it from other thread, while main thread strore and use returned pointer it may overwrite connector name.

Here are we go: registering HDMI connecter  (drm_sysfs_connector_add store and use pointer from drm_get_connector_name)
and the same time got VGA connector name down through the stack. (the second thread is upowerd who watch continuously sysfs)

How to reproduce: load/reload i915 driver many times (in my case it happens after 2-200 attempts)
and you will got a sysfs dup warning and then while unloading driver it will crash (because of malformed connectors list):
