[PATCH 4.20 063/183] pvcalls-front: Avoid get_free_pages(GFP_KERNEL) under spinlock

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Feb 25 2019 - 16:32:57 EST


4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit 9f51c05dc41a6d69423e3d03d18eb7ab22f9ec19 ]

The problem is that we call this with a spin lock held.
The call tree is:
pvcalls_front_accept() holds bedata->socket_lock.
-> create_active()
-> __get_free_pages() uses GFP_KERNEL

The create_active() function is only called from pvcalls_front_accept()
with a spin_lock held, The allocation is not allowed to sleep and
GFP_KERNEL is not sufficient.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

v2: Add a function doing the allocations which is called
outside the lock and passing the allocated data to
create_active().

v3: Use the matching deallocators i.e., free_page()
and free_pages(), respectively.

v4: It would be better to pre-populate map (struct sock_mapping),
rather than introducing one more new struct.

v5: Since allocating the data outside of this call it should also
be freed outside, when create_active() fails.
Move kzalloc(sizeof(*map2), GFP_ATOMIC) outside spinlock and
use GFP_KERNEL instead.

v6: Drop the superfluous calls.
