[PATCH net] rxrpc: Fix clearance of Tx/Rx ring when releasing a call

From: David Howells
Date: Wed Feb 03 2021 - 03:49:40 EST


At the end of rxrpc_release_call(), rxrpc_cleanup_ring() is called to clear
the Rx/Tx skbuff ring, but this doesn't lock the ring whilst it's accessing
it. Unfortunately, rxrpc_resend() might be trying to retransmit a packet
concurrently with this - and whilst it does lock the ring, this isn't
protection against rxrpc_cleanup_call().

Fix this by removing the call to rxrpc_cleanup_ring() from
rxrpc_release_call(). rxrpc_cleanup_ring() will be called again anyway
from rxrpc_cleanup_call(). The earlier call is just an optimisation to
recycle skbuffs more quickly.

Alternative solutions include rxrpc_release_call() could try to cancel the
work item or wait for it to complete or rxrpc_cleanup_ring() could lock
when accessing the ring (which would require a bh lock).

This can produce a report like the following:
