From 823a566221a5639f6c69424897218e5d6431a970 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Hellström Date: Wed, 9 Oct 2024 11:20:31 +0200 Subject: locking/ww_mutex: Adjust to lockdep nest_lock requirements MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When using mutex_acquire_nest() with a nest_lock, lockdep refcounts the number of acquired lockdep_maps of mutexes of the same class, and also keeps a pointer to the first acquired lockdep_map of a class. That pointer is then used for various comparison-, printing- and checking purposes, but there is no mechanism to actively ensure that lockdep_map stays in memory. Instead, a warning is printed if the lockdep_map is freed and there are still held locks of the same lock class, even if the lockdep_map itself has been released. In the context of WW/WD transactions that means that if a user unlocks and frees a ww_mutex from within an ongoing ww transaction, and that mutex happens to be the first ww_mutex grabbed in the transaction, such a warning is printed and there might be a risk of a UAF. Note that this is only problem when lockdep is enabled and affects only dereferences of struct lockdep_map. Adjust to this by adding a fake lockdep_map to the acquired context and make sure it is the first acquired lockdep map of the associated ww_mutex class. Then hold it for the duration of the WW/WD transaction. This has the side effect that trying to lock a ww mutex *without* a ww_acquire_context but where a such context has been acquire, we'd see a lockdep splat. The test-ww_mutex.c selftest attempts to do that, so modify that particular test to not acquire a ww_acquire_context if it is not going to be used.
