This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable ring_buffer.aux_refcount is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. **Important note for maintainers: Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic counterparts. Please check Documentation/core-api/refcount-vs-atomic.rst for more information. Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in some rare cases it might matter. Please double check that you don't have some undocumented memory guarantees for this variable usage. For the ring_buffer.aux_refcount it might make a difference in following places: - perf_aux_output_begin(): increment in refcount_inc_not_zero() only guarantees control dependency on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart - rb_free_aux(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only provides RELEASE ordering and ACQUIRE ordering + control dependency on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart Suggested-by: Kees Cook Reviewed-by: David Windsor Reviewed-by: Hans Liljestrand Signed-off-by: Elena Reshetova --- kernel/events/core.c | 2 +- kernel/events/internal.h | 2 +- kernel/events/ring_buffer.c | 6 +++--- 3 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/events/core.c b/kernel/events/core.c index 963cee0..31ab5d7 100644 --- a/kernel/events/core.c +++ b/kernel/events/core.c @@ -5463,7 +5463,7 @@ static void perf_mmap_close(struct vm_area_struct *vma) /* this has to be the last one */ rb_free_aux(rb); - WARN_ON_ONCE(atomic_read(&rb->aux_refcount)); + WARN_ON_ONCE(refcount_read(&rb->aux_refcount)); mutex_unlock(&event->mmap_mutex); } diff --git a/kernel/events/internal.h b/kernel/events/internal.h index 4718de2..79c4707 100644 --- a/kernel/events/internal.h +++ b/kernel/events/internal.h @@ -49,7 +49,7 @@ struct ring_buffer { atomic_t aux_mmap_count; unsigned long aux_mmap_locked; void (*free_aux)(void *); - atomic_t aux_refcount; + refcount_t aux_refcount; void **aux_pages; void *aux_priv; diff --git a/kernel/events/ring_buffer.c b/kernel/events/ring_buffer.c index e841d48..0416f01 100644 --- a/kernel/events/ring_buffer.c +++ b/kernel/events/ring_buffer.c @@ -358,7 +358,7 @@ void *perf_aux_output_begin(struct perf_output_handle *handle, if (!atomic_read(&rb->aux_mmap_count)) goto err; - if (!atomic_inc_not_zero(&rb->aux_refcount)) + if (!refcount_inc_not_zero(&rb->aux_refcount)) goto err; /* @@ -671,7 +671,7 @@ int rb_alloc_aux(struct ring_buffer *rb, struct perf_event *event, * we keep a refcount here to make sure either of the two can * reference them safely. */ - atomic_set(&rb->aux_refcount, 1); + refcount_set(&rb->aux_refcount, 1); rb->aux_overwrite = overwrite; rb->aux_watermark = watermark; @@ -690,7 +690,7 @@ int rb_alloc_aux(struct ring_buffer *rb, struct perf_event *event, void rb_free_aux(struct ring_buffer *rb) { - if (atomic_dec_and_test(&rb->aux_refcount)) + if (refcount_dec_and_test(&rb->aux_refcount)) __rb_free_aux(rb); } -- 2.7.4
