[PATCH v2 0/3] smb: smbdirect: fix listener backlog leak and teardown races

[Stefan Metzmacher <metze@samba.org>]

Hi Namjae,

These fix a set of problems in the shared smbdirect module
(fs/smb/smbdirect/), reached through the listener/accept path, which in
practice is driven by ksmbd for incoming SMB Direct connections.

The main one is a pre-authentication remote denial of service: the
listener keeps every accepted connection on a fixed-size backlog
(listen.pending, limit 10 for ksmbd). A connection is only removed from
that backlog on the success path (promotion to listen.ready after a
completed negotiate, or dequeue by accept()). A connection that is
accepted at the RDMA level but then fails before it is accepted by the
upper layer - negotiate timeout, peer disconnect, or an invalid
negotiate request - is never removed, so its backlog slot is leaked.
After about ten such events the listener rejects every new connection
with -EBUSY and SMB Direct stays unusable until the service is
restarted. An unauthenticated peer can trigger this with ~10 aborted
connections.

The series:

  - smbdirect_socket_destroy_sync() no longer waits for
    RDMA_CM_EVENT_DISCONNECTED after rdma_disconnect(). That wait could
    take very long (until the rdma cm gives up, e.g. a peer that just
    vanished) or never complete if the event already happened and the
    status was overwritten. rdma_destroy_id() in
    smbdirect_socket_destroy() is enough to stop further events; the
    rest of the disconnect protocol is handled by the rdma core
    asynchronously. This also makes releasing orphaned sockets
    (next patch) non-blocking.

  - A failed, not-yet-accepted child of a listener now moves itself to a
    new listen.orphaned list at the end of its cleanup work and queues
    listen.purge_orphaned_work, which releases it, so it no longer leaks
    its backlog slot (nor its struct sock / RDMA resources) for the
    lifetime of the listener. sc->accept.listener is only changed under
    listener->listen.lock, and whoever clears it owns the release;
    the listener is freed via kfree_rcu() so a child can dereference it
    under rcu_read_lock(). This is the DoS fix.

  - smbdirect_socket_accept() no longer hands out a socket that failed
    after it was put on the ready list (e.g. the peer disconnected in
    the meantime); it checks first_error / the status under listen.lock,
    orphans such a socket and tries the next one.

I tested the reproducer and the problem is fixed
and I run various xfstests.

I think these are important and should go into 7.3

Changes since v1:
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/cover.1791224972.git.metze@samba.org)

- "smb: smbdirect: release failed pending sockets of a listener":
  fix a use-after-free and a missed-orphan race in
  smbdirect_listen_connect_request(), spotted by Sashiko. The
  nsc->first_error check and the orphaning are now done under
  listen.lock, together with setting nsc->accept.listener, so a
  concurrent smbdirect_socket_cleanup_work()/purge_orphaned_work()
  can neither free nsc while we still look at it, nor miss the
  orphaning and leak it on the pending list.

- "smb: smbdirect: don't hand out already failed sockets in
  smbdirect_socket_accept()": bound the accept() wait across the
  "skip a failed socket and try the next one" retries, also spotted
  by Sashiko. smbdirect_socket_wait_for_accept() now returns the
  remaining timeout and smbdirect_socket_accept() carries it over, so
  a stream of failed connections can no longer reset the caller's
  timeout. ksmbd passes MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT, so it is unaffected in
  practice.

- Added Reported-by:/Closes: for the Sashiko reviews.
