When the lldd is processing the complete sas task in interrupt and set
the task stat as SAS_TASK_STATE_DONE, the smp timeout timer is able to
be triggered at the same time. And smp_task_timedout() will complete the
task wheter the SAS_TASK_STATE_DONE is set or not. Then the sas task may
freed before lldd end the interrupt process. Thus a use-after-free will
happen.

Fix this by calling the complete() only when SAS_TASK_STATE_DONE is not
set. And remove the check of the return value of the del_timer().


Hi Jason,

Please mention that once the LLDD sets DONE, it must call task->done(), which will call smp_task_done()->complete()

Nit: for consistency with any other time we use this lock, can we call complete() outside the lock? Maybe just use a flag variable for this.

Do we also need this change or similar:
static int smp_execute_task_sg(struct domain_device *dev,
	if ((task->task_state_flags & SAS_TASK_STATE_ABORTED)) {
		SAS_DPRINTK("smp task timed out or aborted\n");
		i->dft->lldd_abort_task(task);
-		if (!(task->task_state_flags & SAS_TASK_STATE_DONE)) {
-			SAS_DPRINTK("SMP task aborted and not done\n");
-			break;
-		}
+		break;

To me, the ABORTED and DONE states are mutually exclusive.




Thanks,
John
