Subject: [PATCH 17/20] scsi: ibmvfc: fix TOCTOU race in ibmvfc_nvme_create_queue() on adapter removal
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 16:09:18 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916230921.2204729-18-tyreld@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260916230921.2204729-1-tyreld@linux.ibm.com>

ibmvfc_remove() called ibmvfc_release_sub_crqs() before
ibmvfc_nvme_unregister().  ibmvfc_release_sub_crqs() frees the
nvme_scrqs.scrqs array and sets active_queues to 0, but the nvme-fc
transport is still live at that point and can call back into
ibmvfc_nvme_create_queue().  That callback reads active_queues and
dereferences scrqs without any lock, so the window between the guard
check and the actual use can race with the teardown, leading to:

  - divide-by-zero in '(qidx - 1) % vhost->nvme_scrqs.active_queues'
    when active_queues has been zeroed concurrently, and
  - NULL pointer dereference on 'vhost->nvme_scrqs.scrqs[qhandle->index]'
    when scrqs has been freed and set to NULL concurrently.

ibmvfc_nvme_unregister() already calls nvme_fc_unregister_localport()
followed by wait_for_completion(), which blocks until the transport has
fully quiesced all queue operations.  It just needs to happen before the
sub-CRQ memory is released.

Move ibmvfc_nvme_unregister() before ibmvfc_release_sub_crqs() in
ibmvfc_remove() so the transport is quiesced before the sub-CRQ arrays
are freed.  The reset path (ibmvfc_reset_crq) is unaffected: it only
deregisters sub-CRQs at the hypervisor level and never frees them, so
active_queues and scrqs remain valid across a reset.

Fixes: 186f72e38029 ("scsi: ibmvfc: implement LLDD callbacks for mapping nvme-fc queues")
