As sashiko-bot was not able to check the second patch this bundle is
re-posted with b4 preparation.
Fixed the remarks reported by sashiko-bot of V7 patchset.
Complete concept change than former fix approach by using so->rx_lock
for the cfecho and in sendmsg to properly shutdown and drain the former
(maybe faulty) PDU transmission before starting a new sending attempt.

isotp_notify() unregisters the (RCU) CAN filters via can_rx_unregister()
and clears so->bound without waiting for a grace period. isotp_release()
uses so->bound to decide whether it needs to call synchronize_rcu()
before cancelling so->rxtimer, so when NETDEV_UNREGISTER runs first it
skips that synchronize_rcu() and can cancel the timer while an
in-flight isotp_rcv() is still executing and about to re-arm it via
isotp_send_fc(), leading to a use-after-free timer callback on the
freed socket.
sakisho-bot remarked a problem with rtnl_lock held in isotp_notify(),
therefore make isotp_release() always call synchronize_rcu() before
cancelling the timers, regardless of so->bound. This still closes the
original race (isotp_notify() clearing so->bound without waiting for
in-flight isotp_rcv() callers before isotp_release() cancels the RX
timer) without adding any RCU wait to the netdevice notifier path.

* [PATCH v8 2/4] can: isotp: fix use-after-free race with concurrent NETDEV_UNREGISTER

isotp_release() looked up the bound network device via dev_get_by_index()
using the stored ifindex. During device unregistration the device is
unlisted from the ifindex hash before the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier
chain runs, so a concurrent isotp_release() could find no device, skip
can_rx_unregister() entirely, and still proceed to free the socket.
Since isotp_release() had already removed itself from the isotp
notifier list at that point, isotp_notify() would never get a chance to
clean up either, leaving a stale CAN filter that keeps pointing at the
freed socket.
Fix this the same way raw.c already does: hold a tracked reference to
the bound net_device in the socket (so->dev/so->dev_tracker) from
bind() onward instead of re-resolving it from the ifindex, and
serialize bind()/release() with rtnl_lock() so that so->dev is always
consistent with what the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier sees. so->dev
stays valid regardless of ifindex-hash unlisting, and is only ever
cleared by whichever of isotp_release()/isotp_notify() gets there
first, so the filter is always removed exactly once.
isotp_bind() now rejects a (re)bind with -EAGAIN while so->[tx|rx].state
isn't ISOTP_IDLE yet, so a timer left running by a prior
NETDEV_UNREGISTER can't act on a newly bound so->ifindex. Both checks
share the same lock_sock() section, so there is no window in which a
concurrent isotp_notify() clearing so->bound could be missed.

concurrent isotp_notify() clearing so->bound could be missed.

* [PATCH v8 3/4] can: isotp: fix race between RX/TX timers and frame reception

From: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@hartkopp.net>
When receiving a Consecutive Frame, Flow Control frame, or local echo
frame, hrtimer_cancel() is called to stop the corresponding watchdog
timer. If the timer handler is already running on another CPU,
hrtimer_cancel() waits for it, and by the time it returns, the timer
handler may have already reported a timeout and reset the state
machine.
so->rx_lock now also covers the TX side: isotp_rcv_echo() takes it
(isotp_rcv_fc()/isotp_rcv_cf() already run under it via isotp_rcv()),
and sendmsg() takes it briefly when claiming a new transfer to cancel
all three TX timers and clear so->cfecho itself. A concurrent claim
cannot get past this point while an old-generation frame is still
being processed under the same lock, so isotp_rcv_fc()/isotp_rcv_cf()
only need a plain state recheck after hrtimer_cancel().
Two spots additionally need so->tx_gen, because sendmsg()'s initial
claim is a lock-free cmpxchg() to ISOTP_SENDING that can succeed while
the old generation's rx_lock holder is still active:
- isotp_rcv_echo() checks state == ISOTP_SENDING, exactly what a
brand new claim also sets before it ever reaches the lock; so->tx_gen
tells the two apart.
- sendmsg()'s error paths unconditionally wrote so->tx.state =
ISOTP_IDLE; that write is now gated on so->tx_gen too, since a new
claim can succeed while we're still cancelling our own timers.
The use of rx_lock guarantees a new transfer can't have armed anything
of its own yet while we hold it.
so->tx_gen is otherwise only used by isotp_tx_timer_handler()/
isotp_echo_timer_handler(), which must stay lock-free to avoid
deadlocking against the hrtimer_cancel() calls made under so->rx_lock
elsewhere.

* [PATCH v8 3/4] can: isotp: fix race between RX/TX timers and frame reception

To: linux-can; +Cc: Oliver Hartkopp, Marc Kleine-Budde, sashiko-bot
When receiving a Consecutive Frame, Flow Control frame, or local echo
frame, hrtimer_cancel() is called to stop the corresponding watchdog
timer. If the timer handler is already running on another CPU,
hrtimer_cancel() waits for it, and by the time it returns, the timer
handler may have already reported a timeout and reset the state
machine.
so->rx_lock now also covers the TX side: isotp_rcv_echo() takes it
(isotp_rcv_fc()/isotp_rcv_cf() already run under it via isotp_rcv()),
and sendmsg() takes it briefly when claiming a new transfer to cancel
all three TX timers and clear so->cfecho itself. A concurrent claim
cannot get past this point while an old-generation frame is still
being processed under the same lock, so isotp_rcv_fc()/isotp_rcv_cf()
only need a plain state recheck after hrtimer_cancel().
Two spots additionally need so->tx_gen, because sendmsg()'s initial
claim is a lock-free cmpxchg() to ISOTP_SENDING that can succeed while
the old generation's rx_lock holder is still active:
- isotp_rcv_echo() checks state == ISOTP_SENDING, exactly what a
brand new claim also sets before it ever reaches the lock; so->tx_gen
tells the two apart.
- sendmsg()'s error paths unconditionally wrote so->tx.state =
ISOTP_IDLE; that write is now gated on so->tx_gen too, since a new
claim can succeed while we're still cancelling our own timers.
The use of rx_lock guarantees a new transfer can't have armed anything
of its own yet while we hold it.
so->tx_gen is otherwise only used by isotp_tx_timer_handler()/
isotp_echo_timer_handler(), which must stay lock-free to avoid
deadlocking against the hrtimer_cancel() calls made under so->rx_lock
elsewhere.

If a thread blocked in isotp_sendmsg() waiting for a previous transfer
to finish is interrupted by a signal, jumping to the cleanup labels
incorrectly cancels active timers and forces 'so->tx.state' back to
ISOTP_IDLE. Since this thread never owned the active transmission, it
abruptly aborts another thread's legitimate transfer, so return the

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 4 potential issue(s) to consider:
New issues:
- [High] Error paths in `isotp_sendmsg()` unconditionally cancel hrtimers, which can inadvertently destroy the active timers of a newly started concurrent transfer.
- [High] A delayed local echo frame from a previous transfer can bypass the `tx_gen` validation and corrupt a newly started transfer due to a TOCTOU race with `so->cfecho`.
- [High] The timeout handler incorrectly suppresses the socket timeout error (`ECOMM`) if a concurrent transfer claims the socket, causing the timed-out `sendmsg()` to silently drop data and falsely report success.
Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Concurrent `sendmsg` calls cause the active sender to hang waiting for a new sender to finish, leading to hangs or cross-transfer status leaks.

--- Patch [3]: [PATCH v8 3/4] can: isotp: fix race between RX/TX timers and frame reception ---
commit eb4cbaa1b7868a1c6cac62f072196eefb97302d2
Author: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@hartkopp.net>
Subject: can: isotp: fix race between RX/TX timers and frame reception
This commit introduces so->rx_lock to protect the TX state machine against
concurrent hrtimer execution and frame reception. It also adds a tx_gen
generation counter to safely distinguish between old and new TX transfers
when cancelling timers or processing echo frames locklessly.

[Severity: High]
Can a delayed echo frame from a previous transfer bypass the validation and
corrupt a newly started transfer here?
If transfer 1 times out, it leaves its echo tag in so->cfecho.
If transfer 2 then claims the socket, it locklessly increments so->tx_gen
in isotp_sendmsg() before acquiring so->rx_lock to clear so->cfecho.
If a delayed echo for transfer 1 arrives in that small window, isotp_rcv_echo()
will acquire so->rx_lock, match the old so->cfecho (which hasn't been cleared
yet), and read the new so->tx_gen.
Does this allow the stale echo to pass the generation check below and disrupt
the protocol state machine of the new transfer?

[Severity: High]
Does this suppress the socket timeout error if a concurrent transfer claims
the socket right after the state transitions to ISOTP_IDLE?
Once cmpxchg() sets so->tx.state to ISOTP_IDLE, a concurrent thread calling
isotp_sendmsg() can immediately claim the state and increment so->tx_gen.
If that happens before the READ_ONCE(so->tx_gen) == gen check, the error
reporting is skipped. Does this cause the original timed-out isotp_sendmsg()
call to falsely report success to userspace instead of returning an error?

Can this unconditionally cancel the timer of a newly started concurrent
transfer?
If can_send() fails, this path cancels tx_hrt before verifying ownership
via tx_gen. If a concurrent sendmsg() has already claimed the socket and
started its own timers, will this cancel the new transfer's timers and
cause it to hang indefinitely without timeout monitoring?

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does the wait condition here
handle concurrent senders correctly?
When using CAN_ISOTP_WAIT_TX_DONE, isotp_sendmsg() waits on:
wait_event_interruptible(so->wait, so->tx.state == ISOTP_IDLE);
If transfer 1's transmission completes (setting ISOTP_IDLE and waking waiters),
but transfer 2 concurrently claims ISOTP_SENDING before transfer 1 wakes up,
transfer 1 will evaluate so->tx.state == ISOTP_IDLE as false.
Will transfer 1 then go back to sleep, incorrectly hanging while waiting on
transfer 2's completion?

[Severity: High]
Similar to the can_send() error path above, this unconditionally cancels
all TX timers without checking if the socket is still owned by the current
transfer's generation.
If a timeout already occurred and a new transfer is active, will cancelling
these timers destroy the active timers of the new transfer?

isotp_notify() unregisters the (RCU) CAN filters and clears so->bound
without waiting for a grace period. This commit updates isotp_release() to
unconditionally call synchronize_rcu() before cancelling timers, fixing a
race condition where NETDEV_UNREGISTER could lead to a use-after-free timer

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does a race condition exist between socket
release and netdevice unregistration that can leak filters?
If isotp_release() runs during the window where unregister_netdevice_many()
has unlisted the device from the IDR but before notifiers are invoked:
net/can/isotp.c:isotp_release() {
...
list_del(&so->notifier);
...
dev = dev_get_by_index(net, so->ifindex);
...
}
Because the socket is unlinked from the notifier list, the notifier won't
clean it up. However, dev_get_by_index() returns NULL since the device is
unlisted, causing isotp_release() to silently skip calling
can_rx_unregister() and permanently leak the receiver memory.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does the NETDEV_UNREGISTER
handler fail to stop active state machines?
When the unregister event is handled:
net/can/isotp.c:isotp_notify() {
...
case NETDEV_UNREGISTER:
lock_sock(sk);
/* remove current filters & unregister */
...
}
The code clears so->bound and so->ifindex but omits explicitly aborting
active state machines (so->tx.state) or cancelling tx timers. If a thread
is blocked in isotp_sendmsg(), it remains hung until a timer expires.
Additionally, if userspace calls bind() on a new interface, the state isn't
reset, and when the active timer fires, it could transmit remaining frames
of the old PDU out of the newly bound network interface.
[Severity: Medium]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does isotp_bind() ignore filter
registration failures?
net/can/isotp.c:isotp_bind() {
...
if (isotp_register_rxid(so))
can_rx_register(net, dev, rx_id, SINGLE_MASK(rx_id),
isotp_rcv, sk, "isotp", sk);
...
}
If can_rx_register() fails with -ENOMEM, isotp_bind() ignores the return
value, sets so->bound = 1, and returns 0. The socket then silently fails to
receive or echo frames, and later isotp_release() will trigger a warning
splat when attempting to unregister the missing filter.
[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but is there a race with
concurrent CAN frame reception when updating the state locklessly?
net/can/isotp.c:isotp_sendmsg() {
...
so->tx.state = ISOTP_WAIT_FIRST_FC;
...
}
If a spoofed or leftover Flow Control frame is received concurrently on
another CPU:
net/can/isotp.c:isotp_rcv_fc() {
...
if (so->tx.state != ISOTP_WAIT_FC &&
so->tx.state != ISOTP_WAIT_FIRST_FC)
...
}
The softirq path can see ISOTP_WAIT_FIRST_FC and immediately transition to
ISOTP_SENDING, transmitting a Consecutive Frame before isotp_sendmsg() has
sent the First Frame, scrambling the protocol state.
[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but can the signal error path in
isotp_sendmsg() leak uninitialized kernel memory?
If isotp_sendmsg() is interrupted by a signal, it sets the state to idle:
net/can/isotp.c:isotp_sendmsg() {
...
so->tx.state = ISOTP_IDLE;
hrtimer_cancel(&so->txfrtimer);
...
}
If a concurrent isotp_rcv_fc() already passed the state check, and
userspace immediately calls sendmsg() again with a large size:
net/can/isotp.c:isotp_sendmsg() {
...
u8 *newbuf = kmalloc(max_pdu_size, GFP_KERNEL);
...
}
The delayed isotp_rcv_fc() could resume, transition the state, and transmit
the newly allocated, uninitialized so->tx.buf over the CAN bus before the
data has been copied from userspace.

This commit fixes a bug where a signal interrupting a thread waiting to start
a new transfer incorrectly aborts an ongoing transfer. By returning the error
directly, it avoids executing the cleanup path that forces the state back to
ISOTP_IDLE.

This is a pre-existing issue, but does a similar race exist later in
isotp_sendmsg() when handling wait_tx_done?
If Thread A waits in wait_tx_done with a signal pending, and concurrently
the transfer finishes (setting state to ISOTP_IDLE and waking waiters),
Thread B could wake up and claim the socket locklessly:
Thread B:
while (cmpxchg(&so->tx.state, ISOTP_IDLE, ISOTP_SENDING) != ISOTP_IDLE) {
Before Thread B increments so->tx_gen, if Thread A wakes up, evaluates its
wait condition, returns -ERESTARTSYS, and jumps to err_event_drop:
Thread A:
if (wait_tx_done) {
err = wait_event_interruptible(so->wait, so->tx.state == ISOTP_IDLE);
if (err)
goto err_event_drop;
}
Would Thread A then incorrectly reset the state back to ISOTP_IDLE while
Thread B is actively using the socket?
Thread A in err_event_drop:
if (READ_ONCE(so->tx_gen) == gen) {
so->cfecho = 0;
so->tx.state = ISOTP_IDLE;
}

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does the so->tx_gen mechanism
fully protect against delayed local echoes from aborted transfers?
If a transfer is aborted while its CAN frame is already queued, and a new
transfer begins with matching first 4 bytes of payload, could the delayed
local echo from the aborted frame arrive and be falsely validated?
In isotp_rcv_echo():
if (so->cfecho != *(u32 *)cf->data)
goto out_unlock;
gen = READ_ONCE(so->tx_gen);
...
if (so->tx.state != ISOTP_SENDING || READ_ONCE(so->tx_gen) != gen)
goto out_unlock;
Since gen is read directly from the current socket state (so->tx_gen) rather
than being persistently attached to the SKB, does this allow a stale echo to
prematurely advance the new transfer's state machine, leading to pacing
(STmin) violations and timeouts?

-EAGAIN if the state machines aren't idle yet, avoiding timers acting on a

This is a pre-existing issue, but does a time-of-check to time-of-use race
still exist here if sock_alloc_send_skb() blocks later in isotp_sendmsg()?
If sock_alloc_send_skb(sk, so->ll.mtu) blocks during allocation, a concurrent
NETDEV_UNREGISTER could trigger isotp_notify(), which acquires lock_sock()
and sets so->bound = 0.
Userspace could then call setsockopt(CAN_ISOTP_LL_OPTS), which passes its
!so->bound check and modifies so->ll.mtu and so->tx.ll_dl.
When isotp_sendmsg() resumes, it has a smaller SKB but could use the new
larger MTU, or isotp_fill_dataframe() could use the new so->tx.ll_dl to copy
too many bytes into the small SKB:
net/can/isotp.c:isotp_fill_dataframe() {
...
for (i = 0; i < num; i++)
cf->data[pcilen + i] = so->tx.buf[so->tx.idx++];
...
}
Could this lead to a heap out-of-bounds write overwriting skb_shared_info?

This is a pre-existing issue, but does this state machine check fully prevent
cross-interface packet injection from RCU-delayed softirqs?
If a packet arrives on an old device and is queued via can_rx_register()'s
softirq, and concurrently the device is unregistered (clearing so->bound),
userspace could call bind() for a new device.
Since isotp_rcv() hasn't acquired so->rx_lock to change the state yet, the
lockless check here passes and so->dev is updated. Could the delayed softirq
then acquire so->rx_lock, transition the state, and send a Flow Control frame
using the newly bound so->ifindex?
Would isotp_rcv() need to verify that skb->dev matches the currently bound
so->dev after acquiring so->rx_lock?
