When test as follows: step1: ioctl(sda, BLKTRACESETUP, &arg) step2: ioctl(sda, BLKTRACESTART, NULL) step3: ioctl(sda, BLKTRACETEARDOWN, NULL) step4: ioctl(sda, BLKTRACESETUP, &arg) Got issue as follows: debugfs: File 'dropped' in directory 'sda' already present! debugfs: File 'msg' in directory 'sda' already present! debugfs: File 'trace0' in directory 'sda' already present! And also find syzkaller report issue like "KASAN: use-after-free Read in relay_switch_subbuf" "https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=13849f0d9b1b818b087341691be6cc3ac6a6bfb7"; If remove block trace without stop(BLKTRACESTOP) block trace, '__blk_trace_remove' will just set 'q->blk_trace' with NULL. However, debugfs file isn't removed, so will report file already present when call BLKTRACESETUP. static int __blk_trace_remove(struct request_queue *q) { struct blk_trace *bt; bt = rcu_replace_pointer(q->blk_trace, NULL, lockdep_is_held(&q->debugfs_mutex)); if (!bt) return -EINVAL; if (bt->trace_state != Blktrace_running) blk_trace_cleanup(q, bt); return 0; } If do test as follows: step1: ioctl(sda, BLKTRACESETUP, &arg) step2: ioctl(sda, BLKTRACESTART, NULL) step3: ioctl(sda, BLKTRACETEARDOWN, NULL) step4: remove sda There will remove debugfs directory which will remove recursively all file under directory. >> blk_release_queue >> debugfs_remove_recursive(q->debugfs_dir) So all files which created in 'do_blk_trace_setup' are removed, and 'dentry->d_inode' is NULL. But 'q->blk_trace' is still in 'running_trace_lock', 'trace_note_tsk' will traverse 'running_trace_lock' all nodes. >>trace_note_tsk >> trace_note >> relay_reserve >> relay_switch_subbuf >> d_inode(buf->dentry)->i_size To solve above issues, reference commit '5afedf670caf', call 'blk_trace_cleanup' unconditionally in '__blk_trace_remove' and first stop block trace in 'blk_trace_cleanup'.
