Currently, nfsd_proc_stat_init() ignores the return value of svc_proc_register(). If the procfile creation fails, then the kernel will WARN when it tries to remove the entry later. Fix nfsd_proc_stat_init() to return the same type of pointer as svc_proc_register(), and fix up nfsd_net_init() to check that and fail the nfsd_net construction if it occurs. svc_proc_register() can fail if the dentry can't be allocated, or if an identical dentry already exists. The second case is pretty unlikely in the nfsd_net construction codepath, so if this happens, return -ENOMEM. Fixes: 93483ac5fec6 ("nfsd: expose /proc/net/sunrpc/nfsd in net namespaces") Reported-by: syzbot+e34ad04f27991521104c@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nfs/67a47501.050a0220.19061f.05f9.GAE@xxxxxxxxxx/ Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> --- I looked at the console log from the report, and syzkaller is doing fault injection on allocations. You can see the stack where the "nfsd" directory under /proc failed to be created due to one. This is a pretty unlikely bug under normal circumstances, but it's simple to fix. The problem predates the patch in Fixes:, but it's not worth the effort to backport this to anything earlier. --- fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c | 9 ++++++++- fs/nfsd/stats.c | 4 ++-- fs/nfsd/stats.h | 2 +- 3 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c b/fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c index 95ea4393305bd38493b640fbaba2e8f57f5a501d..583eda0df54dca394de4bbe8d148be2892df39cb 100644 --- a/fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c +++ b/fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c @@ -2204,8 +2204,14 @@ static __net_init int nfsd_net_init(struct net *net) NFSD_STATS_COUNTERS_NUM); if (retval) goto out_repcache_error; + memset(&nn->nfsd_svcstats, 0, sizeof(nn->nfsd_svcstats)); nn->nfsd_svcstats.program = &nfsd_programs[0]; + if (!nfsd_proc_stat_init(net)) { + retval = -ENOMEM; + goto out_proc_error; + } + for (i = 0; i < sizeof(nn->nfsd_versions); i++) nn->nfsd_versions[i] = nfsd_support_version(i); for (i = 0; i < sizeof(nn->nfsd4_minorversions); i++) @@ -2215,12 +2221,13 @@ static __net_init int nfsd_net_init(struct net *net) nfsd4_init_leases_net(nn); get_random_bytes(&nn->siphash_key, sizeof(nn->siphash_key)); seqlock_init(&nn->writeverf_lock); - nfsd_proc_stat_init(net); #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NFS_LOCALIO) INIT_LIST_HEAD(&nn->local_clients); #endif return 0; +out_proc_error: + percpu_counter_destroy_many(nn->counter, NFSD_STATS_COUNTERS_NUM); out_repcache_error: nfsd_idmap_shutdown(net); out_idmap_error: diff --git a/fs/nfsd/stats.c b/fs/nfsd/stats.c index bb22893f1157e4c159e123b6d8e25b8eab52e187..f7eaf95e20fc8758566f469c6c2de79119fea070 100644 --- a/fs/nfsd/stats.c +++ b/fs/nfsd/stats.c @@ -73,11 +73,11 @@ static int nfsd_show(struct seq_file *seq, void *v) DEFINE_PROC_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE(nfsd); -void nfsd_proc_stat_init(struct net *net) +struct proc_dir_entry *nfsd_proc_stat_init(struct net *net) { struct nfsd_net *nn = net_generic(net, nfsd_net_id); - svc_proc_register(net, &nn->nfsd_svcstats, &nfsd_proc_ops); + return svc_proc_register(net, &nn->nfsd_svcstats, &nfsd_proc_ops); } void nfsd_proc_stat_shutdown(struct net *net) diff --git a/fs/nfsd/stats.h b/fs/nfsd/stats.h index 04aacb6c36e2576ba231ee481e3a3e9e9f255a61..e4efb0e4e56d467c13eaa5a1dd312c85dadeb4b8 100644 --- a/fs/nfsd/stats.h +++ b/fs/nfsd/stats.h @@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ #include <uapi/linux/nfsd/stats.h> #include <linux/percpu_counter.h> -void nfsd_proc_stat_init(struct net *net); +struct proc_dir_entry *nfsd_proc_stat_init(struct net *net); void nfsd_proc_stat_shutdown(struct net *net); static inline void nfsd_stats_rc_hits_inc(struct nfsd_net *nn) --- base-commit: ebbdc9429c39336a406b191cfe84bca2c12c2f73 change-id: 20250206-nfsd-fixes-8e61bdf66347 Best regards, -- Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx>
