An incoming call can race with rxrpc socket destruction, leading to a
leaked call. This may result in an oops when the call timer eventually
expires:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000874
RIP: 0010:_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x2a/0x50
Call Trace:
<IRQ>

with a warning in the kernel log looking something like:
rxrpc: Call 00000000ba5e571a still in use (1,SvAwtACK,1061d,0)!
incurred during rmmod of rxrpc. The 1061d is the call flags:
RECVMSG_READ_ALL, RX_HEARD, BEGAN_RX_TIMER, RX_LAST, EXPOSED,
IS_SERVICE, RELEASED
but no DISCONNECTED flag (0x800), so it's an incoming (service) call and
it's still connected.
The race appears to be that:
(1) rxrpc_new_incoming_call() consults the service struct, checks sk_state
and allocates a call - then pauses, possibly for an interrupt.
(2) rxrpc_release_sock() sets RXRPC_CLOSE, nulls the service pointer,
discards the prealloc and releases all calls attached to the socket.
(3) rxrpc_new_incoming_call() resumes, launching the new call, including
its timer and attaching it to the socket.
Fix this by read-locking local->services_lock to access the AF_RXRPC socket
providing the service rather than RCU in rxrpc_new_incoming_call().
There's no real need to use RCU here as local->services_lock is only
write-locked by the socket side in two places: when binding and when
shutting down.

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 Restructured Text 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.
