[PATCH v2 net 6/6] net/sched: qdisc_destroy() old ingress and clsact Qdiscs before grafting

From: Peilin Ye
Date: Mon May 22 2023 - 20:41:58 EST


mini_Qdisc_pair::p_miniq is a double pointer to mini_Qdisc, initialized in
ingress_init() to point to net_device::miniq_ingress. ingress Qdiscs
access this per-net_device pointer in mini_qdisc_pair_swap(). Similar for
clsact Qdiscs and miniq_egress.

Unfortunately, after introducing RTNL-unlocked RTM_{NEW,DEL,GET}TFILTER
requests (thanks Hillf Danton for the hint), when replacing ingress or
clsact Qdiscs, for example, the old Qdisc ("@old") could access the same
miniq_{in,e}gress pointer(s) concurrently with the new Qdisc ("@new"),
causing race conditions [1] including a use-after-free bug in
mini_qdisc_pair_swap() reported by syzbot:

@old and @new should not affect each other. In other words, @old should
never modify miniq_{in,e}gress after @new, and @new should not update
@old's RCU state. Fixing without changing sch_api.c turned out to be
difficult (please refer to Closes: for discussions). Instead, make sure
@new's first call always happen after @old's last call, in
qdisc_destroy(), has finished:

In qdisc_graft(), return -EAGAIN and tell the caller to replay
(suggested by Vlad Buslov) if @old has any ongoing RTNL-unlocked filter
requests, and call qdisc_destroy() for @old before grafting @new.

Introduce qdisc_refcount_dec_if_one() as the counterpart of
qdisc_refcount_inc_nz() used for RTNL-unlocked filter requests. Introduce
a non-static version of qdisc_destroy() that does a TCQ_F_BUILTIN check,
just like qdisc_put() etc.

Depends on patch "net/sched: Refactor qdisc_graft() for ingress and clsact
Qdiscs".

[1] To illustrate, the syzkaller reproducer adds ingress Qdiscs under
TC_H_ROOT (no longer possible after patch "net/sched: sch_ingress: Only
create under TC_H_INGRESS") on eth0 that has 8 transmission queues:

Thread 1 creates ingress Qdisc A (containing mini Qdisc a1 and a2), then
adds a flower filter X to A.

Thread 2 creates another ingress Qdisc B (containing mini Qdisc b1 and
b2) to replace A, then adds a flower filter Y to B.

Thread 1 A's refcnt Thread 2
RTM_NEWQDISC (A, RTNL-locked)
qdisc_create(A) 1
qdisc_graft(A) 9

RTM_NEWTFILTER (X, RTNL-unlocked)
__tcf_qdisc_find(A) 10
tcf_chain0_head_change(A)
mini_qdisc_pair_swap(A) (1st)
|
| RTM_NEWQDISC (B, RTNL-locked)
RCU sync 2 qdisc_graft(B)
| 1 notify_and_destroy(A)
|
tcf_block_release(A) 0 RTM_NEWTFILTER (Y, RTNL-unlocked)

tcf_chain0_head_change_cb_del(A) mini_qdisc_pair_swap(B) (2nd)
mini_qdisc_pair_swap(A) (3rd) |
... ...

Here, B calls mini_qdisc_pair_swap(), pointing eth0->miniq_ingress to its
mini Qdisc, b1. Then, A calls mini_qdisc_pair_swap() again during
ingress_destroy(), setting eth0->miniq_ingress to NULL, so ingress packets
on eth0 will not find filter Y in sch_handle_ingress().

This is only one of the possible consequences of concurrently accessing
miniq_{in,e}gress pointers. The point is clear though: again, A should
never modify those per-net_device pointers after B, and B should not
update A's RCU state.

filter requests (Vlad)
