Syzbot reported an inconsistent {SOFTIRQ-ON-W} -> {IN-SOFTIRQ-W} lock
usage in sco_conn_del and sco_sock_timeout that could lead to
deadlocks.

This inconsistent lock state can also happen in sco_conn_ready,
rfcomm_connect_ind, and bt_accept_enqueue.

The issue is that these functions take a spin lock on the socket with
interrupts enabled, but sco_sock_timeout takes the lock in an IRQ
context. This could lead to deadlocks:

CPU0
----
lock(slock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_SCO);
<Interrupt>
lock(slock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_SCO);

*** DEADLOCK ***

We fix this by ensuring that local bh is disabled before calling
bh_lock_sock.

After doing this, we additionally need to protect sco_conn_lock by
disabling local bh.

This is necessary because sco_conn_del makes a call to sco_chan_del
while holding on to the sock lock, and sco_chan_del itself makes a
call to sco_conn_lock. If sco_conn_lock is held elsewhere with
interrupts enabled, there could still be a
slock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_SCO --> &conn->lock#2 lock inversion as
follows:

CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&conn->lock#2);
local_irq_disable();
lock(slock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_SCO);
lock(&conn->lock#2);
<Interrupt>
lock(slock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_SCO);

*** DEADLOCK ***

As sco_conn_del now disables local bh before calling sco_chan_del,
instead of disabling local bh for the calls to sco_conn_lock in
sco_chan_del, we instead wrap other calls to sco_chan_del with
local_bh_disable/enable.

Hi,

The previous version of this patch was a bit of a mess, so I made the
following changes.

v1 -> v2:
- Instead of pulling out the clean-up code out from sco_chan_del and
using it directly in sco_conn_del, disable local irqs for relevant
sections.
- Disable local irqs more thoroughly for instances of
bh_lock_sock/bh_lock_sock_nested in the bluetooth subsystem.
Specifically, the calls in af_bluetooth.c and rfcomm/sock.c are now made
with local irqs disabled as well.

Best wishes,
Desmond

Looks like you are touching RFCOMM as well, perhaps you should have it
split, also how about other sockets like L2CAP and HCI are they
affected? There seems to be a lot of problem with the likes of
bh_lock_sock I wonder if going with local_bh_disable is overall a
better way to handle.


Thanks for the feedback, Luiz. I'll separate the SCO and RFCOMM code changes.

I believe other sockets should be fine. From what I see, they use lock_sock, which acquires the spin lock via spin_lock_bh under the hood. So only code that uses bh_lock_sock/bh_lock_sock_nested are affected.

Also I'm not sure what you meant by going with local_bh_disable? I'm probably missing context about Bluetooth protocols, but I think the spin locks still have their place to protect concurrent accesses and to make it clear about what's being protected.
