6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Guangguan Wang <guangguan.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 2b33eb8f1b3e8c2f87cfdbc8cc117f6bdfabc6ec ] link down work may be scheduled before lgr freed but execute after lgr freed, which may result in crash. So it is need to hold a reference before shedule link down work, and put the reference after work executed or canceled. The relevant crash call stack as follows: list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffffb638c9c0fe20, but was 0000000000000000 ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:51! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI CPU: 6 PID: 978112 Comm: kworker/6:119 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G #1 Hardware name: Alibaba Cloud Alibaba Cloud ECS, BIOS 2221b89 04/01/2014 Workqueue: events smc_link_down_work [smc] RIP: 0010:__list_del_entry_valid.cold+0x31/0x47 RSP: 0018:ffffb638c9c0fdd8 EFLAGS: 00010086 RAX: 0000000000000054 RBX: ffff942fb75e5128 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: ffff943520930aa0 RSI: ffff94352091fc80 RDI: ffff94352091fc80 RBP: 0000000000000000 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: ffffb638c9c0fc38 R10: ffffb638c9c0fc30 R11: ffffffffa015eb28 R12: 0000000000000002 R13: ffffb638c9c0fe20 R14: 0000000000000001 R15: ffff942f9cd051c0 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff943520900000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f4f25214000 CR3: 000000025fbae004 CR4: 00000000007706e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: rwsem_down_write_slowpath+0x17e/0x470 smc_link_down_work+0x3c/0x60 [smc] process_one_work+0x1ac/0x350 worker_thread+0x49/0x2f0 ? rescuer_thread+0x360/0x360 kthread+0x118/0x140 ? __kthread_bind_mask+0x60/0x60 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 Fixes: 541afa10c126 ("net/smc: add smcr_port_err() and smcr_link_down() processing") Signed-off-by: Guangguan Wang <guangguan.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Tony Lu <tonylu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
