Subject: [PATCH 10/10] block: Fix oops scsi_disk_get()
Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2017 01:37:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170323003702.27571-11-jack@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170323003702.27571-1-jack@suse.cz>

When device open races with device shutdown, we can get the following
oops in scsi_disk_get():

...

As you can see RAX value is already poisoned showing that gendisk we got
is already freed. The problem is that get_gendisk() looks up device
number in ext_devt_idr and then does get_disk() which does kobject_get()
on the disks kobject. However the disk gets removed from ext_devt_idr
only in disk_release() (through blk_free_devt()) at which moment it has
already 0 refcount and is already on its way to be freed. Indeed we've
got a warning from kobject_get() about 0 refcount shortly before the
oops.

We fix the problem by using kobject_get_unless_zero() in get_disk() so
that get_disk() cannot get reference on a disk that is already being
freed.
