Subject: [Patch nf] netfilter: xt_hashlimit: unregister proc file before releasing mutex
Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2020 22:53:52 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200213065352.6310-1-xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> (raw)

Before releasing the global mutex, we only unlink the hashtable
from the hash list, its proc file is still not unregistered at
this point. So syzbot could trigger a race condition where a
parallel htable_create() could register the same file immediately
after the mutex is released.

Move htable_remove_proc_entry() back to mutex protection to
fix this. And, fold htable_destroy() into htable_put() to make
the code slightly easier to understand.
