Subject: [PATCH] workqueue: unregister wq lockdep on error path in alloc_workqueue()
Date: Fri, 8 Mar 2019 15:37:13 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190308073713.39853-1-wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com> (raw)
syzkaller report an issue "KASAN: use-after-free Read in alloc_workqueue",
alloc_workqueue
- kzalloc wq
- wq_init_lockdep(wq);
- lockdep_register_key(&wq->key); // add to hlist
- kfree wq
But forget to call wq_unregister_lockdep()->lockdep_unregister_key(), it
will delete the entry from hlist.

Fixes: 669de8bda87b ("kernel/workqueue: Use dynamic lockdep keys for workqueues")
