It shouldnt' be possible to free the op_async while the timer is still pending/running.The timeout timer runs for an operation that never completed but on the regular "everything is good" path you end up doing del_timer_sync(&op_async->timer); so the timer doesn't run.As far as I can tell, the get/put is already happening external to the timer: gb_loopback_async_operation(): ... op_async = kzalloc(sizeof(*op_async), GFP_KERNEL); ... INIT_WORK(&op_async->work, gb_loopback_async_operation_work); kref_init(&op_async->kref); ... op_async->pending = true; ... ret = gb_operation_request_send(operation, gb_loopback_async_operation_callback, 0, GFP_KERNEL); ... timer_setup(&op_async->timer, gb_loopback_async_operation_timeout, 0); op_async->timer.expires = jiffies + gb->jiffy_timeout; add_timer(&op_async->timer); gb_loopback_async_operation_callback(): (run by operation) ... op_async->pending = false; del_timer_sync(&op_async->timer); gb_loopback_async_operation_put(op_async); gb_loopback_async_operation_work(): (scheduled by timer) ... op_async->pending = false; gb_loopback_async_operation_put(op_async);
(Doing a get/put in the timer callback itself shouldn't be happening: it must already be pinned in memory for the callback to run.)
Both gb_loopback_async_operation_callback() and (gb_loopback_async_operation_timeout || gb_loopback_async_operation_work()) can run in parallel so the get in the timer callback means we can let the timer stuff free-run w/r to gb_loopback_async_operation_callback() - take a reference indicating we still want that object and then let gb_loopback_async_operation_work() run.
