If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Tue Nov 17 14:34:38 PST 2015 From: Francesco Ruggeri <fruggeri@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 5 Nov 2015 08:16:14 -0800 Subject: packet: race condition in packet_bind From: Francesco Ruggeri <fruggeri@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 30f7ea1c2b5f5fb7462c5ae44fe2e40cb2d6a474 ] There is a race conditions between packet_notifier and packet_bind{_spkt}. It happens if packet_notifier(NETDEV_UNREGISTER) executes between the time packet_bind{_spkt} takes a reference on the new netdevice and the time packet_do_bind sets po->ifindex. In this case the notification can be missed. If this happens during a dev_change_net_namespace this can result in the netdevice to be moved to the new namespace while the packet_sock in the old namespace still holds a reference on it. When the netdevice is later deleted in the new namespace the deletion hangs since the packet_sock is not found in the new namespace' &net->packet.sklist. It can be reproduced with the script below. This patch makes packet_do_bind check again for the presence of the netdevice in the packet_sock's namespace after the synchronize_net in unregister_prot_hook. More in general it also uses the rcu lock for the duration of the bind to stop dev_change_net_namespace/rollback_registered_many from going past the synchronize_net following unlist_netdevice, so that no NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifications can happen on the new netdevice while the bind is executing. In order to do this some code from packet_bind{_spkt} is consolidated into packet_do_dev. import socket, os, time, sys proto=7 realDev='em1' vlanId=400 if len(sys.argv) > 1: vlanId=int(sys.argv[1]) dev='vlan%d' % vlanId os.system('taskset -p 0x10 %d' % os.getpid()) s = socket.socket(socket.PF_PACKET, socket.SOCK_RAW, proto) os.system('ip link add link %s name %s type vlan id %d' % (realDev, dev, vlanId)) os.system('ip netns add dummy') pid=os.fork() if pid == 0: # dev should be moved while packet_do_bind is in synchronize net os.system('taskset -p 0x20000 %d' % os.getpid()) os.system('ip link set %s netns dummy' % dev) os.system('ip netns exec dummy ip link del %s' % dev) s.close() sys.exit(0) time.sleep(.004) try: s.bind(('%s' % dev, proto+1)) except: print 'Could not bind socket' s.close() os.system('ip netns del dummy') sys.exit(0) os.waitpid(pid, 0) s.close() os.system('ip netns del dummy') sys.exit(0) Signed-off-by: Francesco Ruggeri <fruggeri@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
