Subject: [PATCH V2] KVM/Eventfd: Avoid crash when assign and deassign specific eventfd in parallel.
Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2017 21:10:36 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171222021036.13107-1-tianyu.lan@intel.com> (raw)

Syzroot reports crash in kvm_irqfd_assign() is caused by use-after-free.
Because kvm_irqfd_assign() and kvm_irqfd_deassign() can't run in parallel
for one specific eventfd. When assign path hasn't been finished after irqfd
has been added to kvm->irqfds.items list, another thead may deassign the
eventfd and free struct kvm_kernel_irqfd(). This causes assign path still
uses struct kvm_kernel_irqfd freed by deassign path. To avoid such issue,
make irqfd's reference under kvm->irq_srcu protection after irqfd added to
kvm->irqfds.iterms list and call synchronize_srcu() in irq_shutdown() to
make sure that irqfd has been fully initialized in the assign path.
