From c845acb324aa85a39650a14e7696982ceea75dc1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rainer Weikusat Date: Sun, 3 Jan 2016 18:56:38 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] af_unix: Fix splice-bind deadlock On 2015/11/06, Dmitry Vyukov reported a deadlock involving the splice system call and AF_UNIX sockets, http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2015/11/06/24 The situation was analyzed as (a while ago) A: socketpair() B: splice() from a pipe to /mnt/regular_file does sb_start_write() on /mnt C: try to freeze /mnt wait for B to finish with /mnt A: bind() try to bind our socket to /mnt/new_socket_name lock our socket, see it not bound yet decide that it needs to create something in /mnt try to do sb_start_write() on /mnt, block (it's waiting for C). D: splice() from the same pipe to our socket lock the pipe, see that socket is connected try to lock the socket, block waiting for A B: get around to actually feeding a chunk from pipe to file, try to lock the pipe. Deadlock. on 2015/11/10 by Al Viro, http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2015/11/10/4 The patch fixes this by removing the kern_path_create related code from unix_mknod and executing it as part of unix_bind prior acquiring the readlock of the socket in question. This means that A (as used above) will sb_start_write on /mnt before it acquires the readlock, hence, it won't indirectly block B which first did a sb_start_write and then waited for a thread trying to acquire the readlock. Consequently, A being blocked by C waiting for B won't cause a deadlock anymore (effectively, both A and B acquire two locks in opposite order in the situation described above). Dmitry Vyukov() tested the original patch. Signed-off-by: Rainer Weikusat Signed-off-by: David S.
