Subject: [PATCH] io_uring/eventfd: ensure io_eventfd_signal() defers another RCU period
Date: Wed, 8 Jan 2025 16:42:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7812ebd4-674f-4ad7-8c13-401684e8099b@kernel.dk> (raw)

io_eventfd_do_signal() is invoked from an RCU callback, but when
dropping the reference to the io_ev_fd, it calls io_eventfd_free()
directly if the refcount drops to zero. This isn't correct, as any
potential freeing of the io_ev_fd should be deferred another RCU grace
period.

Just call io_eventfd_put() rather than open-code the dec-and-test and
free, which will correctly defer it another RCU grace period.

Fixes: 21a091b970cd ("io_uring: signal registered eventfd to process deferred task work")
