[PATCH v6] Bluetooth: Fix l2cap_disconnect_req deadlock

From: Ying Hsu
Date: Wed May 31 2023 - 22:38:56 EST


L2CAP assumes that the locks conn->chan_lock and chan->lock are
acquired in the order conn->chan_lock, chan->lock to avoid
potential deadlock.
For example, l2sock_shutdown acquires these locks in the order:
mutex_lock(&conn->chan_lock)
l2cap_chan_lock(chan)

However, l2cap_disconnect_req acquires chan->lock in
l2cap_get_chan_by_scid first and then acquires conn->chan_lock
before calling l2cap_chan_del. This means that these locks are
acquired in unexpected order, which leads to potential deadlock:
l2cap_chan_lock(c)
mutex_lock(&conn->chan_lock)

This patch releases chan->lock before acquiring the conn_chan_lock
to avoid the potential deadlock.

This commit has been tested on a Chromebook device.

Changes in v6:
- Fixing format of the fixes tag.

Changes in v5:
- Fixing the merge conflict by removing l2cap_del_chan_by_scid.

Changes in v4:
- Using l2cap_get_chan_by_scid to avoid repeated code.
- Releasing chan->lock before acquiring conn->chan_lock.

Changes in v3:
- Adding the fixes tag.

Changes in v2:
- Adding the prefix "Bluetooth:" to subject line.
