The following concurrency may cause a read request to fail to be completed and result in a hung: t1 | t2 --------------------------------------------------------- cachefiles_ondemand_copen req = xa_erase(&cache->reqs, id) // Anon fd is maliciously closed. cachefiles_ondemand_fd_release xa_lock(&cache->reqs) cachefiles_ondemand_set_object_close(object) xa_unlock(&cache->reqs) cachefiles_ondemand_set_object_open // No one will ever close it again. cachefiles_ondemand_daemon_read cachefiles_ondemand_select_req // Get a read req but its fd is already closed. // The daemon can't issue a cread ioctl with an closed fd, then hung. So add spin_lock for cachefiles_ondemand_info to protect ondemand_id and state, thus we can avoid the above problem in cachefiles_ondemand_copen() by using ondemand_id to determine if fd has been closed.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
