[PATCH v3] RDMA/core: Fix race when resolving IP address
From: Dag Moxnes
Date: Mon Jul 08 2019 - 07:17:19 EST
Use neighbour lock when copying MAC address from neighbour data struct
in dst_fetch_ha.
When not using the lock, it is possible for the function to race with
neigh_update, causing it to copy an invalid MAC address.
It is possible to provoke this error by calling rdma_resolve_addr in a
tight loop, while deleting the corresponding ARP entry in another tight
loop.
This will cause the race shown it the following sample trace:
rdma_resolve_addr()
rdma_resolve_ip()
addr_resolve()
addr_resolve_neigh()
fetch_ha()
dst_fetch_ha()
n->nud_state == NUD_VALID
and
net_ioctl()
arp_ioctl()
arp_rec_delete()
arp_invalidate()
neigh_update()
__neigh_update()
neigh->nud_state = new;

v1 -> v2:
* Modified implementation to improve readability
v2 -> v3:
* Added sample trace as suggested by Parav Pandit
