Subject: [PATCH net] net/sched: keep tcf block alive during offload unbind
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 23:30:31 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260731153031.3201165-1-nicoyip.dev@gmail.com> (raw)
An RTNL-unlocked filter request can race with qdisc teardown on a shared
tcf block. The filter request takes a temporary block reference before
teardown drops the qdisc owner's reference. Teardown then enters
tcf_block_offload_unbind() without retaining a reference of its own.
The following interleaving can occur:
filter request qdisc teardown
tcf_block_refcnt_get(): 1 -> 2
__tcf_block_put(): 2 -> 1
tcf_block_offload_unbind()
tcf_block_refcnt_put(): 1 -> 0
tcf_block_destroy()
access block->nooffloaddevcnt
The unbind path may sleep in flow_indr_dev_setup_offload(), allowing the
RCU grace period to expire and the block to be reclaimed. It then
continues using block->cb_lock and block->nooffloaddevcnt.
KASAN reported:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in tcf_block_offload_unbind

Keep the qdisc owner's reference until offload unbind completes by moving
the unbind before the refcount decrement. A concurrent temporary
reference release can no longer destroy the block while unbind uses it.
