quarantine_remove_cache() frees all pending objects that belong to the cache, before we destroy the cache itself. However there are currently two possibilities how it can fail to do so. First, another thread can hold some of the objects from the cache in temp list in quarantine_put(). quarantine_put() has a windows of enabled interrupts, and on_each_cpu() in quarantine_remove_cache() can finish right in that window. These objects will be later freed into the destroyed cache. Then, quarantine_reduce() has the same problem. It grabs a batch of objects from the global quarantine, then unlocks quarantine_lock and then frees the batch. quarantine_remove_cache() can finish while some objects from the cache are still in the local to_free list in quarantine_reduce(). Fix the race with quarantine_put() by disabling interrupts for the whole duration of quarantine_put(). In combination with on_each_cpu() in quarantine_remove_cache() it ensures that quarantine_remove_cache() either sees the objects in the per-cpu list or in the global list. Fix the race with quarantine_reduce() by protecting quarantine_reduce() with srcu critical section and then doing synchronize_srcu() at the end of quarantine_remove_cache(). I've done some assessment of how good synchronize_srcu() works in this case. And on a 4 CPU VM I see that it blocks waiting for pending read critical sections in about 2-3% of cases. Which looks good to me. I suspect that these races are the root cause of some GPFs that I episodically hit. Previously I did not have any explanation for them.

The bug is quite hard to trigger, I've seen it few times during our massive continuous testing (however, it could be cause of some other episodic stray crashes as it leads to memory corruption...). If it is triggered, the consequences are very bad -- almost definite bad memory corruption. The fix is non trivial and has chances of introducing new bugs. I am also not sure how actively people use KASAN on older releases.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
