Subject: [bug report] SUNRPC: Simplify lookup code
Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2018 17:12:41 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181213141241.GA3971@kadam> (raw)
Hello Trond Myklebust,
The patch 07d02a67b7fa: "SUNRPC: Simplify lookup code" from Oct 12,
2018, leads to the following static checker warning:
net/sunrpc/auth_generic.c:248 generic_key_timeout()
warn: 'tcred' can also be NULL
net/sunrpc/auth_generic.c
238 /* Fast track for the normal case */
239 if (test_bit(RPC_CRED_NOTIFY_TIMEOUT, &acred->ac_flags))
240 return 0;
241
242 /* lookup_cred either returns a valid referenced rpc_cred, or PTR_ERR */
243 tcred = auth->au_ops->lookup_cred(auth, acred, 0);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
244 if (IS_ERR(tcred))
245 return -EACCES;
246
247 /* Test for the almost error case */
248 ret = tcred->cr_ops->crkey_timeout(tcred);
249 if (ret != 0) {
250 set_bit(RPC_CRED_KEY_EXPIRE_SOON, &acred->ac_flags);
251 ret = 0;
252 } else {
The proble is nul_lookup_cred() returns get_rpccred(). It used to be
that get_rpccred() would only return NULL if we passed it a NULL but now
we return NULL if refcount_inc_not_zero() returns zero. In other words
it maybe should be something like:
static inline
struct rpc_cred *get_rpccred(struct rpc_cred *cred)
{
if (!cred)
return NULL;
if (refcount_inc_not_zero(&cred->cr_count))
return cred;
return -EACCES;
}
regards,
dan carpenter
