There is a race between laundromat handling of revoked delegations and a client sending free_stateid operation. Laundromat thread finds that delegation has expired and needs to be revoked so it marks the delegation stid revoked and it puts it on a reaper list but then it unlock the state lock and the actual delegation revocation happens without the lock. Once the stid is marked revoked a racing free_stateid processing thread does the following (1) it calls list_del_init() which removes it from the reaper list and (2) frees the delegation stid structure. The laundromat thread ends up not calling the revoke_delegation() function for this particular delegation but that means it will no release the lock lease that exists on the file. Now, a new open for this file comes in and ends up finding that lease list isn't empty and calls nfsd_breaker_owns_lease() which ends up trying to derefence a freed delegation stateid.

Making sure that revoke_delegation() (ie kernel_setlease(unlock)) is called for every delegation that was revoked and added to the reaper list. CC: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Olga Kornievskaia <okorniev@xxxxxxxxxx> --- I can't figure out the Fixes: tag. Laundromat's behaviour has been like that forever. But the free_stateid bits wont apply before the 1e3577a4521e ("SUNRPC: discard sv_refcnt, and svc_get/svc_put"). But we used that fixes tag already with a previous fix for a different problem. --- fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c b/fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c index 9c2b1d251ab3..c97907d7fb38 100644 --- a/fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c +++ b/fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c @@ -6605,13 +6605,13 @@ nfs4_laundromat(struct nfsd_net *nn) unhash_delegation_locked(dp, SC_STATUS_REVOKED); list_add(&dp->dl_recall_lru, &reaplist); } - spin_unlock(&state_lock); while (!list_empty(&reaplist)) { dp = list_first_entry(&reaplist, struct nfs4_delegation, dl_recall_lru); list_del_init(&dp->dl_recall_lru); revoke_delegation(dp); } + spin_unlock(&state_lock); spin_lock(&nn->client_lock); while (!list_empty(&nn->close_lru)) { @@ -7213,7 +7213,9 @@ nfsd4_free_stateid(struct svc_rqst *rqstp, struct nfsd4_compound_state *cstate, if (s->sc_status & SC_STATUS_REVOKED) { spin_unlock(&s->sc_lock); dp = delegstateid(s); + spin_lock(&state_lock); list_del_init(&dp->dl_recall_lru); + spin_unlock(&state_lock); spin_unlock(&cl->cl_lock); nfs4_put_stid(s); ret = nfs_ok; -- 2.43.5
