    net: ieee802154: fix net_device reference release too early · a611c58b
    Lin Zhang authored
    
    
    This patch fixes the kernel oops when release net_device reference in
    advance. In function raw_sendmsg(i think the dgram_sendmsg has the same
    problem), there is a race condition between dev_put and dev_queue_xmit
    when the device is gong that maybe lead to dev_queue_ximt to see
    an illegal net_device pointer.
    
    My test kernel is 3.13.0-32 and because i am not have a real 802154
    device, so i change lowpan_newlink function to this:
    
            /* find and hold real wpan device */
            real_dev = dev_get_by_index(src_net, nla_get_u32(tb[IFLA_LINK]));
            if (!real_dev)
                    return -ENODEV;
    //      if (real_dev->type != ARPHRD_IEEE802154) {
    //              dev_put(real_dev);
    //              return -EINVAL;
    //      }
            lowpan_dev_info(dev)->real_dev = real_dev;
            lowpan_dev_info(dev)->fragment_tag = 0;
            mutex_init(&lowpan_dev_info(dev)->dev_list_mtx);
    
    Also, in order to simulate preempt, i change the raw_sendmsg function
    to this:
    
            skb->dev = dev;
            skb->sk  = sk;
            skb->protocol = htons(ETH_P_IEEE802154);
            dev_put(dev);
            //simulate preempt
            schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(30 * HZ);
            err = dev_queue_xmit(skb);
            if (err > 0)
                    err = net_xmit_errno(err);
    
    and this is my userspace test code named test_send_data:
    
    int main(int argc, char **argv)
    {
            char buf[127];
            int sockfd;
            sockfd = socket(AF_IEEE802154, SOCK_RAW, 0);
            if (sockfd < 0) {
                    printf("create sockfd error: %s\n", strerror(errno));
                    return -1;
            }
            send(sockfd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
            return 0;
    }
    
    This is my test case:

    [381.347747] drm_kms_helper: panic occurred, switching back to text console
    
    In my opinion, there is always exist a chance that the device is gong
    before call dev_queue_xmit.
    
    I think the latest kernel is have the same problem and that
    dev_put should be behind of the dev_queue_xmit.
