[PATCH v4 1/9] NFSD: Prevent lock owner use-after-free during client teardown

Chuck Lever <[email protected]>
Newsgroups gmane.linux.nfs
Message-ID <[email protected]>
__destroy_client() releases a client's open owners, but a lock owner
whose only reference is a blocked lock (nbl) stays on
cl_ownerstr_hashtbl.  client_has_state() does not count a bare owner,
so DESTROY_CLIENTID can reach __destroy_client() with such owners
present.

__destroy_client() then walks the table, calling remove_blocked_locks()
on each owner without a reference.  Freeing a blocked lock drops the
owner reference held via flc_owner.  The per-net laundromat reaps
blocked locks from nn->blocked_locks_lru independently of client state.
The two paths share blocked_locks_lock only for the list splice, not
the owner's lifetime.  The laundromat therefore frees the owner as
__destroy_client() dereferences it, a NULL dereference in
remove_blocked_locks().

nfsd4_release_lockowner() holds a reference across the same call;
__destroy_client() does not.  Hold cl_lock across the walk, taking a
reference and unhashing each owner, then drop it before
remove_blocked_locks() and nfs4_put_stateowner(), which take
blocked_locks_lock and cl_lock.
