IIUC, the fallback (or more precisely the private_data change) essentially
always happens when the lock_sock(smc->sk) is held, except in smc_listen_work()
or smc_listen_decline(), but at that moment, userspace program can not yet
acquire this new socket to add fasync entries to the fasync_list.

So IMHO, the above patch should work, since it checks the private_data under
the lock_sock(sk). But if I missed something, please correct me.

Well, the whole picture is somewhat more complicated. Consider the
following diagram (an underlying kernel socket is in [], e.g. [smc->sk]):

Thread 0                        Thread 1

ioctl(sock, FIOASYNC, [1])
...
sock = filp->private_data;
lock_sock(sock [smc->sk]);
sock_fasync(sock, ..., 1)       ; new fasync_struct linked to smc->sk
release_sock(sock [smc->sk]);
                                 ...
                                 lock_sock([smc->sk]);
                                 ...
                                 smc_switch_to_fallback()
                                 ...
                                 smc->clcsock->file->private_data = smc->clcsock;
                                 ...
                                 release_sock([smc->sk]);
ioctl(sock, FIOASYNC, [0])
...
sock = filp->private_data;
lock_sock(sock [smc->clcsock]);
sock_fasync(sock, ..., 0)       ; nothing to unlink from smc->clcsock
                                 ; since fasync entry was linked to smc->sk
release_sock(sock [smc->clcsock]);


I don't understand why the fasync entry now can't be removed from
clcsock->wq.fasync_list? since the fasync entry has been moved to
clcsock->wq.fasync_list during fallback.

The process you described above is:

1) An fasync entry was added into smc->sk.sk_socket->wq.fasync_list;
2) then fallback occurs, and the fasync entry is moved to clcsock->wq.fasync_list,
   and file->private_data is changed to smc->clcsock;
3) lastly we removed the fasync entry from clcsock->wq.fasync_list.


It can be reproduced by follows, right?

#include <signal.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
        struct msghdr msg = { 0 };
        int sock;
        int on;

        sock = socket(AF_SMC, SOCK_STREAM, 0);

        /* add fasync entry */
        on = 1;
        ioctl(sock, FIOASYNC, &on);

        /* fallback */
        sendmsg(sock, &msg, MSG_FASTOPEN);

        /* remove fasync entry */
        on = 0;
        ioctl(sock, FIOASYNC, &on);

        close(sock);
        return 0;
}

and I added some prints in the kernel for quick debug:

ran the reproducer, and dmesg shows:

[] fasync_insert_entry: wq->fasync_list ffff96fdc0425e98, fasync entry ffff96fdccc62690
[] smc: smc_switch_to_fallback: smc->sk wq.fasync_list ffff96fdc0425e98, clcsock->wq.fasync_list ffff96fdc0426ed8
[] fasync_remove_entry: wq->fasync_list ffff96fdc0426ed8, fasync entry ffff96fdccc62690

It shows that
1. an fasync entry ffff96fdccc62690 is added into ffff96fdc0425e98 (smc->sk wq.fasync_list)
2. then fallback, all the fasync entris in smc->sk wq.fasync_list will be moved to clcsock->wq.fasync_list.
3. then the fasync entry ffff96fdccc62690 (the one in #1) is removed from ffff96fdc0426ed8 (clcsock->wq.fasync_list)

What's wrong with this?




In fact, I think what does cause this leak (maybe one of causes) is the race
I discribed through the diagram in
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/19d7d71b-c911-45cc-9671-235d98720be6@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

1) sock_fasync() got the filp->private_data->wq (that is smc->sk.sk_socket->wq)
   and record it in 'wq';
2) meanwhile, fallback occurs and filp->private_data changed, and from now on,
   user can only operate the clcsock based on file->private_data;
3) (race here) and sock_fasync() keep going and add an entry to 'wq'->fasync_list
   (that is smc->sk.sk_socket->wq); This fasync entry is the one that we can't
   removed later, since we start to operate clcsock after fallback.


Thanks!

                                 ...
                                 close(sock [smc->clcsock]);
                                 __fput(...);
                                 file->f_op->fasync(sock, [0])   ; always failed -
                                                                 ; should use
                                                                 ; smc->sk instead
                                 file->f_op->release()
                                    ...
                                    smc_restore_fallback_changes()
                                    ...
                                    file->private_data = smc->sk.sk_socket;

That is, smc_restore_fallback_changes() restores filp->private_data to
smc->sk. If __fput() would have called file->f_op->release() _before_
file->f_op->fasync(), the fix would be as simple as adding

smc->sk.sk_socket->wq.fasync_list = smc->clcsock->wq.fasync_list;

to smc_restore_fallback_changes(). But since file->f_op->fasync() is called
before file->f_op->release(), the former always makes an attempt to unlink fasync
entry from smc->clcsock instead of smc->sk, thus introducing the memory leak.

And an idea with shared wait queue was intended in attempt to eliminate
this chicken-egg lookalike problem completely.
