Currently when rmdir on an instance is done, eventfs_remove_events_dir() is called and it does a dput on the dentry and then frees the eventfs_inode that represents the events directory. But there's no protection against a reader reading the top level events directory at the same time and we can get a use after free error. Instead, use the dput() associated to the dentry to also free the eventfs_inode associated to the events directory, as that will get called when the last reference to the directory is released. This issue triggered the following KASAN report: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in eventfs_root_lookup+0x88/0x1b0 Read of size 8 at addr ffff888120130ca0 by task ftracetest/1201 CPU: 4 PID: 1201 Comm: ftracetest Not tainted 6.5.0-test-10737-g469e0a8194e7 #13 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.2-debian-1.16.2-1 04/01/2014 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x57/0x90 print_report+0xcf/0x670 ? __pfx_ring_buffer_record_off+0x10/0x10 ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x2b/0x70 ? __virt_addr_valid+0xd9/0x160 kasan_report+0xd4/0x110 ? eventfs_root_lookup+0x88/0x1b0 ? eventfs_root_lookup+0x88/0x1b0 eventfs_root_lookup+0x88/0x1b0 ? eventfs_root_lookup+0x33/0x1b0 __lookup_slow+0x194/0x2a0 ? __pfx___lookup_slow+0x10/0x10 ? down_read+0x11c/0x330 walk_component+0x166/0x220 link_path_walk.part.0.constprop.0+0x3a3/0x5a0 ? seqcount_lockdep_reader_access+0x82/0x90 ? __pfx_link_path_walk.part.0.constprop.0+0x10/0x10 path_openat+0x143/0x11f0 ? __lock_acquire+0xa1a/0x3220 ? __pfx_path_openat+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx___lock_acquire+0x10/0x10 do_filp_open+0x166/0x290 ? __pfx_do_filp_open+0x10/0x10 ? lock_is_held_type+0xce/0x120 ? preempt_count_sub+0xb7/0x100 ? _raw_spin_unlock+0x29/0x50 ? alloc_fd+0x1a0/0x320 do_sys_openat2+0x126/0x160 ? rcu_is_watching+0x34/0x60 ? __pfx_do_sys_openat2+0x10/0x10 ? __might_resched+0x2cf/0x3b0 ? __fget_light+0xdf/0x100 __x64_sys_openat+0xcd/0x140 ? __pfx___x64_sys_openat+0x10/0x10 ? syscall_enter_from_user_mode+0x22/0x90 ? lockdep_hardirqs_on+0x7d/0x100 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0xc0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x6e/0xd8 RIP: 0033:0x7f1dceef5e51 Code: 75 57 89 f0 25 00 00 41 00 3d 00 00 41 00 74 49 80 3d 9a 27 0e 00 00 74 6d 89 da 48 89 ee bf 9c ff ff ff b8 01 01 00 00 0f 05 <48> 3d 00 f0 ff ff 0f 87 93 00 00 00 48 8b 54 24 28 64 48 2b 14 25 RSP: 002b:00007fff2cddf380 EFLAGS: 00000202 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000101 RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 0000000000000241 RCX: 00007f1dceef5e51 RDX: 0000000000000241 RSI: 000055d7520677d0 RDI: 00000000ffffff9c RBP: 000055d7520677d0 R08: 000000000000001e R09: 0000000000000001 R10: 00000000000001b6 R11: 0000000000000202 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: 0000000000000003 R14: 000055d752035678 R15: 000055d752067788 </TASK> Allocated by task 1200: kasan_save_stack+0x2f/0x50 kasan_set_track+0x21/0x30 __kasan_kmalloc+0x8b/0x90 eventfs_create_events_dir+0x54/0x220 create_event_toplevel_files+0x42/0x130 event_trace_add_tracer+0x33/0x180 trace_array_create_dir+0x52/0xf0 trace_array_create+0x361/0x410 instance_mkdir+0x6b/0xb0 tracefs_syscall_mkdir+0x57/0x80 vfs_mkdir+0x275/0x380 do_mkdirat+0x1da/0x210 __x64_sys_mkdir+0x74/0xa0 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0xc0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x6e/0xd8 Freed by task 1251: kasan_save_stack+0x2f/0x50 kasan_set_track+0x21/0x30 kasan_save_free_info+0x27/0x40 __kasan_slab_free+0x106/0x180 __kmem_cache_free+0x149/0x2e0 event_trace_del_tracer+0xcb/0x120 __remove_instance+0x16a/0x340 instance_rmdir+0x77/0xa0 tracefs_syscall_rmdir+0x77/0xc0 vfs_rmdir+0xed/0x2d0 do_rmdir+0x235/0x280 __x64_sys_rmdir+0x5f/0x90 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0xc0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x6e/0xd8 The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888120130ca0 which belongs to the cache kmalloc-16 of size 16 The buggy address is located 0 bytes inside of freed 16-byte region [ffff888120130ca0, ffff888120130cb0) The buggy address belongs to the physical page: page:000000004dbddbb0 refcount:1 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x120130 flags: 0x17ffffc0000800(slab|node=0|zone=2|lastcpupid=0x1fffff) page_type: 0xffffffff() raw: 0017ffffc0000800 ffff8881000423c0 dead000000000122 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000800080 00000001ffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected Memory state around the buggy address: ffff888120130b80: 00 00 fc fc 00 05 fc fc 00 00 fc fc 00 02 fc fc ffff888120130c00: 00 07 fc fc 00 00 fc fc 00 00 fc fc fa fb fc fc >ffff888120130c80: 00 00 fc fc fa fb fc fc 00 00 fc fc 00 00 fc fc ^ ffff888120130d00: 00 00 fc fc 00 00 fc fc 00 00 fc fc fa fb fc fc ffff888120130d80: 00 00 fc fc 00 00 fc fc 00 00 fc fc 00 00 fc fc ================================================================== Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230907024803.250873643@goodmis.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1cb3aee2-19af-c472-e265-05176fe9bd84@huawei.com/ Cc: Ajay Kaher <akaher@vmware.com> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Fixes: 5bdcd5f5331a2 eventfs: ("Implement removal of meta data from eventfs") Tested-by: Linux Kernel Functional Testing <lkft@linaro.org> Tested-by: Naresh Kamboju <naresh.kamboju@linaro.org> Reported-by: Zheng Yejian <zhengyejian1@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
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.
