[PATCH 05/24] Bluetooth: Fix racy acquire of rfcomm_dev reference

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

 



rfcomm_dev_get() can return a rfcomm_dev reference for a
device for which destruction may be commencing. This can happen
on tty destruction, which calls rfcomm_tty_cleanup(), the last
port reference may have been released but RFCOMM_TTY_RELEASED
was not set. The following race is also possible:

CPU 0                            | CPU 1
                                 | rfcomm_release_dev
rfcomm_dev_get                   |   .
  spin_lock                      |   .
    dev  = __rfcomm_dev_get      |   .
    if dev                       |   .
      if test_bit(TTY_RELEASED)  |   .
                                 |   !test_and_set_bit(TTY_RELEASED)
                                 |     tty_port_put   <<<< last reference
      else                       |
        tty_port_get             |

The reference acquire is bogus because destruction will commence
with the release of the last reference.

Ignore the external state change of TTY_RELEASED and instead rely
on the reference acquire itself to determine if the reference is
valid.
