I think it is partially related to commit 6e890c5d5021 ("vhost: use
vhost_tasks for worker threads") and commit 1a5f8090c6de ("vhost: move
worker thread fields to new struct"). Maybe that commits just
highlighted the issue and it was already existing.

In this case I think there is a race between vhost_worker_create() and
vhost_transport_send_pkt(). vhost_transport_send_pkt() calls
vhost_work_queue() without holding the vhost device mutex, so it can run
while vhost_worker_create() set dev->worker, but has not yet set
worker->vtsk.

Before commit 1a5f8090c6de ("vhost: move worker thread fields to new
struct"), dev->worker is set when everything was ready, but maybe it was
just a case of the instructions not being re-ordered and the problem
could still occur.

This happens because VHOST_VSOCK_SET_GUEST_CID can be called before
VHOST_SET_OWNER and then vhost_transport_send_pkt() finds the guest's
CID and tries to send it a packet.
But is it correct to handle VHOST_VSOCK_SET_GUEST_CID, before
VHOST_SET_OWNER?

QEMU always calls VHOST_SET_OWNER before anything, but I don't know
about the other VMMs.

So, could it be an acceptable solution to reject
VHOST_VSOCK_SET_GUEST_CID before VHOST_SET_OWNER?

I mean somethig like this:

diff --git a/drivers/vhost/vsock.c b/drivers/vhost/vsock.c
index 6578db78f0ae..33fc0805d189 100644
--- a/drivers/vhost/vsock.c
+++ b/drivers/vhost/vsock.c
@@ -829,7 +829,12 @@ static long vhost_vsock_dev_ioctl(struct file *f, unsigned int ioctl,
case VHOST_VSOCK_SET_GUEST_CID:
if (copy_from_user(&guest_cid, argp, sizeof(guest_cid)))
return -EFAULT;
- return vhost_vsock_set_cid(vsock, guest_cid);
+ mutex_lock(&vsock->dev.mutex);
+ r = vhost_dev_check_owner(&vsock->dev);
+ if (!r)

+ mutex_unlock(&vsock->dev.mutex);
+ return r;
case VHOST_VSOCK_SET_RUNNING:
if (copy_from_user(&start, argp, sizeof(start)))
return -EFAULT;

In the documentation, we say:

/* Set current process as the (exclusive) owner of this file descriptor. This
* must be called before any other vhost command. Further calls to
* VHOST_OWNER_SET fail until VHOST_OWNER_RESET is called. */

This should prevents the issue, but could break a wrong userspace.

Others idea that I have in mind are:
- hold vsock->dev.mutex while calling vhost_work_queue() (performance
degradation?)
- use RCU to protect dev->worker

WDYT?

Thanks,
Stefano
