[PATCH 1/2] can: j1939: change j1939_netdev_lock type to mutex

From: Fedor Pchelkin
Date: Fri May 26 2023 - 13:20:13 EST


It turns out access to j1939_can_rx_register() needs to be serialized,
otherwise j1939_priv can be corrupted when parallel threads call
j1939_netdev_start() and j1939_can_rx_register() fails. This issue is
thoroughly covered in other commit which serializes access to
j1939_can_rx_register().

Change j1939_netdev_lock type to mutex so that we do not need to remove
GFP_KERNEL from can_rx_register().

j1939_netdev_lock seems to be used in normal contexts where mutex usage
is not prohibited.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.

Fixes: 9d71dd0c7009 ("can: add support of SAE J1939 protocol")
Suggested-by: Alexey Khoroshilov <khoroshilov@xxxxxxxxx>

Note that it has been only tested via Syzkaller and not with real
hardware.
