Subject: [PATCH V3] iomap_dio_rw: Allocate AIO completion queue before submitting dio
Date: Fri, 22 Sep 2017 13:57:14 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170922082714.14625-1-chandan@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170922070753.GF10955@dastard>

Executing xfs/104 test in a loop on Linux-v4.13 kernel on a ppc64
machine can cause the following NULL pointer dereference,

.queue_work_on+0x4c/0x80
.iomap_dio_bio_end_io+0xbc/0x1f0
.bio_endio+0x118/0x1f0
.blk_update_request+0xd0/0x470
.blk_mq_end_request+0x24/0xc0
.lo_complete_rq+0x40/0xe0
.__blk_mq_complete_request_remote+0x28/0x40
.flush_smp_call_function_queue+0xc4/0x1e0
.smp_ipi_demux_relaxed+0x8c/0x100
.icp_hv_ipi_action+0x54/0xa0
.__handle_irq_event_percpu+0x84/0x2c0
.handle_irq_event_percpu+0x28/0x80
.handle_percpu_irq+0x78/0xc0
.generic_handle_irq+0x40/0x70
.__do_irq+0x88/0x200
.call_do_irq+0x14/0x24
.do_IRQ+0x84/0x130

This occurs due to the following sequence of events,

1. Allocate dio for Direct I/O write.
2. Invoke iomap_apply() until iov_iter_count() bytes have been submitted.
   - Assume that we have submitted atleast one bio. Hence iomap_dio->ref value
     will be >= 2.
   - If during the second iteration, iomap_apply() ends up returning -ENOSPC, we would
     break out of the loop and since the 'ret' value is a negative number we
     end up not allocating memory for super_block->s_dio_done_wq.
3. Meanwhile, iomap_dio_bio_end_io() is invoked for bios that have been
   submitted and here the code ends up dereferencing the NULL pointer stored
   at super_block->s_dio_done_wq.

This commit fixes the bug by allocating memory for
super_block->s_dio_done_wq before iomap_apply() is invoked.
