Simply factorize the rhashtable_init() call into mesh_table_alloc() WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 8474 at kernel/workqueue.c:3040 __flush_work kernel/workqueue.c:3040 [inline] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 8474 at kernel/workqueue.c:3040 __cancel_work_timer+0x514/0x540 kernel/workqueue.c:3136 Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 8474 Comm: syz-executor663 Not tainted 5.10.0-rc6-syzkaller #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 RIP: 0010:__flush_work kernel/workqueue.c:3040 [inline] RIP: 0010:__cancel_work_timer+0x514/0x540 kernel/workqueue.c:3136 Code: 5d c3 e8 bf ae 29 00 0f 0b e9 f0 fd ff ff e8 b3 ae 29 00 0f 0b 43 80 3c 3e 00 0f 85 31 ff ff ff e9 34 ff ff ff e8 9c ae 29 00 <0f> 0b e9 dc fe ff ff 89 e9 80 e1 07 80 c1 03 38 c1 0f 8c 7d fd ff RSP: 0018:ffffc9000165f5a0 EFLAGS: 00010293 RAX: ffffffff814b7064 RBX: 0000000000000001 RCX: ffff888021c80000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000000 RBP: ffff888024039ca0 R08: dffffc0000000000 R09: fffffbfff1dd3e64 R10: fffffbfff1dd3e64 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 1ffff920002cbebd R13: ffff888024039c88 R14: 1ffff11004807391 R15: dffffc0000000000 FS: 0000000001347880(0000) GS:ffff8880b9d00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000020000140 CR3: 000000002cc0a000 CR4: 00000000001506e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Call Trace: rhashtable_free_and_destroy+0x25/0x9c0 lib/rhashtable.c:1137 mesh_table_free net/mac80211/mesh_pathtbl.c:69 [inline] mesh_pathtbl_init+0x287/0x2e0 net/mac80211/mesh_pathtbl.c:785 ieee80211_mesh_init_sdata+0x2ee/0x530 net/mac80211/mesh.c:1591 ieee80211_setup_sdata+0x733/0xc40 net/mac80211/iface.c:1569 ieee80211_if_add+0xd5c/0x1cd0 net/mac80211/iface.c:1987 ieee80211_add_iface+0x59/0x130 net/mac80211/cfg.c:125 rdev_add_virtual_intf net/wireless/rdev-ops.h:45 [inline] nl80211_new_interface+0x563/0xb40 net/wireless/nl80211.c:3855 genl_family_rcv_msg_doit net/netlink/genetlink.c:739 [inline] genl_family_rcv_msg net/netlink/genetlink.c:783 [inline] genl_rcv_msg+0xe4e/0x1280 net/netlink/genetlink.c:800 netlink_rcv_skb+0x190/0x3a0 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2494 genl_rcv+0x24/0x40 net/netlink/genetlink.c:811 netlink_unicast_kernel net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1304 [inline] netlink_unicast+0x780/0x930 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1330 netlink_sendmsg+0x9a8/0xd40 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1919 sock_sendmsg_nosec net/socket.c:651 [inline] sock_sendmsg net/socket.c:671 [inline] ____sys_sendmsg+0x519/0x800 net/socket.c:2353 ___sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2407 [inline] __sys_sendmsg+0x2b1/0x360 net/socket.c:2440 do_syscall_64+0x2d/0x70 arch/x86/entry/common.c:46 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 Fixes: 60854fd94573 ("mac80211: mesh: convert path table to rhashtable") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Reported-by: syzbot <syzkaller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201204162428.2583119-1-eric.dumazet@xxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- net/mac80211/mesh_pathtbl.c | 4 +--- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 3 deletions(-) --- a/net/mac80211/mesh_pathtbl.c +++ b/net/mac80211/mesh_pathtbl.c @@ -61,6 +61,7 @@ static struct mesh_table *mesh_table_all INIT_HLIST_HEAD(&newtbl->known_gates); atomic_set(&newtbl->entries, 0); spin_lock_init(&newtbl->gates_lock); + rhashtable_init(&newtbl->rhead, &mesh_rht_params); return newtbl; } @@ -851,9 +852,6 @@ int mesh_pathtbl_init(struct ieee80211_s goto free_path; } - rhashtable_init(&tbl_path->rhead, &mesh_rht_params); - rhashtable_init(&tbl_mpp->rhead, &mesh_rht_params); - sdata->u.mesh.mesh_paths = tbl_path; sdata->u.mesh.mpp_paths = tbl_mpp; Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx are queue-4.14/mac80211-mesh-fix-mesh_pathtbl_init-error-path.patch queue-4.14/tcp-fix-cwnd-limited-bug-for-tso-deferral-where-we-send-nothing.patch
