Subject: [PATCH net 5/5] nfc: rawsock: cancel tx_work before socket teardown
Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2026 08:23:45 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260303162346.2071888-6-kuba@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260303162346.2071888-1-kuba@kernel.org>
In rawsock_release(), cancel any pending tx_work and purge the write
queue before orphaning the socket. rawsock_tx_work runs on the system
workqueue and calls nfc_data_exchange which dereferences the NCI
device. Without synchronization, tx_work can race with socket and
device teardown when a process is killed (e.g. by SIGKILL), leading
to use-after-free or leaked references.
Set SEND_SHUTDOWN first so that if tx_work is already running it will
see the flag and skip transmitting, then use cancel_work_sync to wait
for any in-progress execution to finish, and finally purge any
remaining queued skbs.
Fixes: 23b7869c0fd0 ("NFC: add the NFC socket raw protocol")
