[PATCH v2 2/9] nfsd: RCU-protect cl_cb_session to fix use-after-free on session teardown

Jeff Layton <[email protected]>
Newsgroups gmane.linux.kernel,gmane.linux.nfs
Message-ID <[email protected]>
After a DESTROY_SESSION the per-session teardown path can free a
session while rpciod still holds an inflight callback rpc_task that
dereferences clp->cl_cb_session.  nfsd4_probe_callback_sync() flushes
cl_callback_wq, but once nfsd4_run_cb_work() has called
rpc_call_async() the rpc_task lives on rpciod; flushing the workqueue
does not wait for it.  rpc_shutdown_client() does drain rpciod tasks,
but uses a 1-second wait_event_timeout — tasks stuck in rpc_delay()
(e.g. 2-second NFS4ERR_DELAY retries) can outlive the drain.

    destroy path                       rpciod
    ------------                       ------
    unhash_session(ses)
    nfsd4_probe_callback_sync(clp)
      flush_workqueue(cl_callback_wq)
      /* returns; rpc_task still live */
    nfsd4_put_session_locked(ses)
    free_session(ses) -> kfree(ses)
                                       nfsd4_cb_sequence_done()
                                         reads cb_clp->cl_cb_session
                                         /* freed slab */

A second window exists in nfsd4_process_cb_update().  When
__nfsd4_find_backchannel() returns NULL because unhash_session() has
already removed the destroyed session from cl_sessions,
setup_callback_client() takes the v4.1 early return so
clp->cl_cb_session = ses never fires and the field retains a pointer
to the about-to-be-freed session.

Fix both by converting cl_cb_session to an RCU-protected pointer:

  - Move the cl_cb_session = ses assignment in setup_callback_client()
    to after rpc_create() succeeds, so it is only published when a
    working backchannel exists.  Clear cl_cb_session on the error
    return in nfsd4_process_cb_update().  Both stores use
    rcu_assign_pointer().

  - Annotate cl_cb_session with __rcu.  All rpciod-side readers use
    rcu_read_lock()/rcu_dereference() and check for NULL, bailing to
    the appropriate error or requeue path:
    encode_cb_sequence4args(), decode_cb_sequence4resok(),
    nfsd41_cb_get_slot(), nfsd41_cb_release_slot(),
    nfsd4_cb_prepare(), and nfsd4_cb_sequence_done().

  - Switch __free_session() from kfree() to kfree_rcu() so the
    session slab is not reclaimed until after an RCU grace period,
    guaranteeing that rpciod readers inside rcu_read_lock() never
    dereference freed memory.

  - Pass the session pointer to the nfsd_cb_seq_status and
    nfsd_cb_free_slot tracepoints instead of having them re-read
    cl_cb_session.

  - nfsd4_cb_prepare() calls rpc_exit() when the session is NULL,
    routing through the done/release path to requeue the callback.
