Hi.
Maybe there are some errors in LTS. The follow test is UAF in 5.10.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20151217213400.GA15130@linux-mips.org/T/
These two patches which showed up in v5.16-rc1 can solve this problem.
The first is 0b9111922b1f ("hamradio: defer 6pack kfree after unregister_netdev"). The second is 81b1d548d00b ("hamradio: remove needs_free_netdev to avoid UAF").
These patches make unregister_netdev() not call free_netdev() and then call it after free all 6pack frame buffers.
I'll send these patches soon to fix 5.10 for reference.

commit efe4186e6a1b54bf38b9e05450d43b0da1fd7739 upstream.
When a 6pack device is detaching, the sixpack_close() will act to cleanup necessary resources. Although del_timer_sync() in sixpack_close() won't return if there is an active timer, one could use mod_timer() in sp_xmit_on_air() to wake up timer again by calling userspace syscall such as ax25_sendmsg(), ax25_connect() and ax25_ioctl().
This unexpected waked handler, sp_xmit_on_air(), realizes nothing about the undergoing cleanup and may still call pty_write() to use driver layer resources that have already been released.
One of the possible race conditions is shown below:
(USE) | (FREE)
ax25_sendmsg() | ax25_queue_xmit() | ... | sp_xmit() | sp_encaps() | sixpack_close() sp_xmit_on_air() | del_timer_sync(&sp->tx_t) mod_timer(&sp->tx_t,...) | ... | unregister_netdev() | ... (wait a while) | tty_release() | tty_release_struct() | release_tty() sp_xmit_on_air() | tty_kref_put(tty_struct) //FREE pty_write(tty_struct) //USE | ...
The corresponding fail log is shown below:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __run_timers.part.0+0x170/0x470 Write of size 8 at addr ffff88800a652ab8 by task swapper/2/0 ...

This patch reorders the del_timer_sync() after the unregister_netdev() to avoid UAF bugs. Because the unregister_netdev() is well synchronized, it flushs out any pending queues, waits the refcount of net_device decreases to zero and removes net_device from kernel. There is not any running routines after executing unregister_netdev(). Therefore, we could not arouse timer from userspace again.
