Subject: [PATCH RT 1/5] signal: Prevent double-free of user struct
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2020 14:47:00 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <544fad9036a21c60dc68278fa302cc5cdf477098.1598039186.git.zanussi@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1598039186.git.zanussi@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1598039186.git.zanussi@kernel.org>

From: Matt Fleming <matt@codeblueprint.co.uk>

v4.19.135-rt61-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

-----------


[ Upsteam commit 9567db2ebe566a93485e1a27d8759969d0002d7a ]

The way user struct reference counting works changed significantly with,

  fda31c50292a ("signal: avoid double atomic counter increments for user accounting")

Now user structs are only freed once the last pending signal is
dequeued. Make sigqueue_free_current() follow this new convention to
avoid freeing the user struct multiple times and triggering this
warning:

 refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
