[PATCH v2 0/2] ubifs: Fix two kmemleaks in error path

[Zhihao Cheng]

First memleak is found by mounting corrupted UBIFS image with chk_index
enabled.
Second memleak is found by powercut testing for encryption scenario.

v1->v2:
  ubifs_symlink: Call fscrypt_free_inode() directly in error handling
  path.
  Add 'Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org' and 'Suggested-by' tags in patch 2.

Zhihao Cheng (2):
  ubifs: dbg_check_idx_size: Fix kmemleak if loading znode failed
  ubifs: ubifs_symlink: Fix memleak of inode->i_link in error path

[PATCH v2 1/2] ubifs: dbg_check_idx_size: Fix kmemleak if loading znode failed

[Zhihao Cheng]

If function dbg_check_idx_size() failed by loading znode in mounting
process, there are two problems:
  1. Allocated znodes won't be freed, which causes kmemleak in kernel:
     ubifs_mount
      dbg_check_idx_size
       dbg_walk_index
        c->zroot.znode = ubifs_load_znode
	child = ubifs_load_znode // failed
	// Loaded znodes won't be freed in error handling path.
  2. Global variable ubifs_clean_zn_cnt is not decreased, because
     ubifs_tnc_close() is not invoked in error handling path, which
     triggers a warning in ubifs_exit():
      WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1576 at fs/ubifs/super.c:2486 ubifs_exit

	ubifs_exit+0xca/0xc70 [ubifs]
	__do_sys_delete_module+0x29a/0x4a0
	do_syscall_64+0x6f/0x140

Fix it by invoking destroy_journal() if dbg_check_idx_size() failed.

While it is technically not wrong, calling destroy_journal() before ubifs_replay_journal() is highly confusing
to future readers of the source code.
It seem to work because ubifs_replay_journal() can deal with the fact the journal is not yet initialized.
I'd rather suggest to add a distinct function which undoes what dbg_check_idx_size() did.
Alternatively, dbg_check_idx_size() could also cleanup itself after failure.

Thanks,

[PATCH v2 2/2] ubifs: ubifs_symlink: Fix memleak of inode->i_link in error path

[Zhihao Cheng]

For error handling path in ubifs_symlink(), inode will be marked as
bad first, then iput() is invoked. If inode->i_link is initialized by
fscrypt_encrypt_symlink() in encryption scenario, inode->i_link won't
be freed by callchain ubifs_free_inode -> fscrypt_free_inode in error
handling path, because make_bad_inode() has changed 'inode->i_mode' as
'S_IFREG'.
Following kmemleak is easy to be reproduced by injecting error in
ubifs_jnl_update() when doing symlink in encryption scenario:
 unreferenced object 0xffff888103da3d98 (size 8):
  comm "ln", pid 1692, jiffies 4294914701 (age 12.045s)
  backtrace:
   kmemdup+0x32/0x70
   __fscrypt_encrypt_symlink+0xed/0x1c0
   ubifs_symlink+0x210/0x300 [ubifs]
   vfs_symlink+0x216/0x360
   do_symlinkat+0x11a/0x190
   do_syscall_64+0x3b/0xe0
There are two ways fixing it:
 1. Remove make_bad_inode() in error handling path. We can do that
    because ubifs_evict_inode() will do same processes for good
    symlink inode and bad symlink inode, for inode->i_nlink checking
    is before is_bad_inode().
 2. Free inode->i_link before marking inode bad.
Method 2 is picked, it has less influence, personally, I think.
