6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 565d121b69980637f040eb4d84289869cdaabedf ]
Its possible that two threads call tcp_sk_exit_batch() concurrently,
once from the cleanup_net workqueue, once from a task that failed to clone
a new netns. In the latter case, error unwinding calls the exit handlers
in reverse order for the 'failed' netns.
tcp_sk_exit_batch() calls tcp_twsk_purge().
Problem is that since commit b099ce2602d8 ("net: Batch inet_twsk_purge"),
this function picks up twsk in any dying netns, not just the one passed
in via exit_batch list.
This means that the error unwind of setup_net() can "steal" and destroy
timewait sockets belonging to the exiting netns.
This allows the netns exit worker to proceed to call
WARN_ON_ONCE(!refcount_dec_and_test(&net->ipv4.tcp_death_row.tw_refcount));
without the expected 1 -> 0 transition, which then splats.
At same time, error unwind path that is also running inet_twsk_purge()
will splat as well:
WARNING: .. at lib/refcount.c:31 refcount_warn_saturate+0x1ed/0x210

create_new_namespaces+0x3ea/0xb10 kernel/nsproxy.c:110
... because refcount_dec() of tw_refcount unexpectedly dropped to 0.
This doesn't seem like an actual bug (no tw sockets got lost and I don't
see a use-after-free) but as erroneous trigger of debug check.
Add a mutex to force strict ordering: the task that calls tcp_twsk_purge()
blocks other task from doing final _dec_and_test before mutex-owner has
removed all tw sockets of dying netns.
Fixes: e9bd0cca09d1 ("tcp: Don't allocate tcp_death_row outside of struct netns_ipv4.")
