Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.17-5.4] ceph: add checking of wait_for_completion_killable() return value
Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2025 10:48:40 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251026144958.26750-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251026144958.26750-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Viacheslav Dubeyko <Slava.Dubeyko@ibm.com>
[ Upstream commit b7ed1e29cfe773d648ca09895b92856bd3a2092d ]
The Coverity Scan service has detected the calling of
wait_for_completion_killable() without checking the return
value in ceph_lock_wait_for_completion() [1]. The CID 1636232
defect contains explanation: "If the function returns an error
value, the error value may be mistaken for a normal value.
In ceph_lock_wait_for_completion(): Value returned from
a function is not checked for errors before being used. (CWE-252)".
The patch adds the checking of wait_for_completion_killable()
return value and return the error code from
ceph_lock_wait_for_completion().

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
YES – returning the error from the killable wait is required for correct
abort handling in the Ceph MDS client.
- `fs/ceph/locks.c:224-226` now propagates the
`wait_for_completion_killable()` status instead of unconditionally
succeeding. This covers the case where a task waiting for
`req->r_safe_completion` is interrupted by a fatal signal (the helper
returns `-ERESTARTSYS` per `kernel/sched/completion.c`), so
`ceph_lock_wait_for_completion()` no longer hides that failure.
- `ceph_mdsc_wait_request()` relies on the wait callback’s return code
to drive error cleanup (`fs/ceph/mds_client.c:3761-3776`): only when
the callback returns `< 0` does it set `CEPH_MDS_R_ABORTED`, preserve
the error, and call `ceph_invalidate_dir_request()` for write-style
operations. With the old code the callback always returned 0, so a
second signal during the safe-completion wait would skip that abort
path even though `req->r_err` eventually propagates a failure; in
turn, the caller could observe stale directory state and inconsistent
locking semantics.
- The change is tiny, affects only the Ceph lock abort path, and has no
dependencies. It keeps normal success cases untouched (`err == 0`
still returns early) while making the error handling consistent.
- Given it fixes a real user-visible bug (signals during lock abort
losing associated cleanup) with negligible regression risk, it’s a
good candidate for the stable series.
