Subject: [PATCH] rfkill: fix deadlock in rfkill_send_events
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2023 09:08:15 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231010010814.1799012-2-twuufnxlz@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <000000000000e3788c06074e2b84@google.com>
syzbot report:
syz-executor675/5132 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff8880297ee088 (&data->mtx){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: rfkill_send_events+0x226/0x3f0 net/rfkill/core.c:286
but task is already holding lock:
ffff88801bfc0088 (&data->mtx){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: rfkill_fop_open+0x146/0x750 net/rfkill/core.c:1183
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(&data->mtx);
lock(&data->mtx);
*** DEADLOCK ***
In 2c3dfba4cf84 insert rfkill_sync() to rfkill_fop_open(), it will call
rfkill_send_events() and then triger this issue.
Fixes: 2c3dfba4cf84 ("rfkill: sync before userspace visibility/changes")
