====================
rxrpc: Fix race between call connection, data transmit and call disconnect
Here are patches to fix an oops[1] caused by a race between call
connection, initial packet transmission and call disconnection which
results in something like:
kernel BUG at net/rxrpc/peer_object.c:413!
when the syzbot test is run. The problem is that the connection procedure
is effectively split across two threads and can get expanded by taking an
interrupt, thereby adding the call to the peer error distribution list
*after* it has been disconnected (say by the rxrpc socket shutting down).
The easiest solution is to look at the fourth set of I/O thread
conversion/SACK table expansion patches that didn't get applied[2] and take
from it those patches that move call connection and disconnection into the
I/O thread. Moving these things into the I/O thread means that the
sequencing is managed by all being done in the same thread - and the race
can no longer happen.
This is preferable to introducing an extra lock as adding an extra lock
would make the I/O thread have to wait for the app thread in yet another
place.
The changes can be considered as a number of logical parts:
(1) Move all of the call state changes into the I/O thread.
(2) Make client connection ID space per-local endpoint so that the I/O
thread doesn't need locks to access it.
(3) Move actual abort generation into the I/O thread and clean it up. If
sendmsg or recvmsg want to cause an abort, they have to delegate it.
(4) Offload the setting up of the security context on a connection to the
thread of one of the apps that's starting a call. We don't want to be
doing any sort of crypto in the I/O thread.
(5) Connect calls (ie. assign them to channel slots on connections) in the
I/O thread. Calls are set up by sendmsg/kafs and passed to the I/O
thread to connect. Connections are allocated in the I/O thread after
this.
(6) Disconnect calls in the I/O thread.
I've also added a patch for an unrelated bug that cropped up during
testing, whereby a race can occur between an incoming call and socket
shutdown.
Note that whilst this fixes the original syzbot bug, another bug may get
triggered if this one is fixed:
INFO: rcu detected stall in corrupted
rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected expedited stalls on CPUs/tasks: { P5792 } 2657 jiffies s: 2825 root: 0x0/T
rcu: blocking rcu_node structures (internal RCU debug):
It doesn't look this should be anything to do with rxrpc, though, as I've
tested an additional patch[3] that removes practically all the RCU usage
from rxrpc and it still occurs. It seems likely that it is being caused by
something in the tunnelling setup that the syzbot test does, but there's
not enough info to go on. It also seems unlikely to be anything to do with
the afs driver as the test doesn't use that.

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.
