Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] binfmt_misc: fix crash when load/unload module
Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2022 10:18:12 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220124181812.1869535-2-ztong0001@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220124104012.nblfd6b5on4kojgi@wittgenstein>

We should unregister the table upon module unload otherwise something
horrible will happen when we load binfmt_misc module again. Also note
that we should keep value returned by register_sysctl_mount_point() and
release it later, otherwise it will leak.
Also, per Christian's comment, to fully restore the old behavior that
won't break userspace the check(binfmt_misc_header) should be
eliminated.

reproduce:
modprobe binfmt_misc
modprobe -r binfmt_misc
modprobe binfmt_misc
modprobe -r binfmt_misc
modprobe binfmt_misc
