From: Dan Williams dan.j.williams@intel.com Date: Mon, 1 Feb 2021 16:20:40 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] libnvdimm/dimm: Avoid race between probe and available_slots_show()

Richard reports that the following test:

(while true; do cat /sys/bus/nd/devices/nmem*/available_slots 2>&1 > /dev/null done) &

while true; do for i in $(seq 0 4); do echo nmem$i > /sys/bus/nd/drivers/nvdimm/bind done for i in $(seq 0 4); do echo nmem$i > /sys/bus/nd/drivers/nvdimm/unbind done done

...fails with a crash signature like:

divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN PTI RIP: 0010:nd_label_nfree+0x134/0x1a0 [libnvdimm] [..] Call Trace: available_slots_show+0x4e/0x120 [libnvdimm] dev_attr_show+0x42/0x80 ? memset+0x20/0x40 sysfs_kf_seq_show+0x218/0x410

The root cause is that available_slots_show() consults driver-data, but fails to synchronize against device-unbind setting up a TOCTOU race to access uninitialized memory.

Validate driver-data under the device-lock.
