Subject: [PATCH 17/20] xfrm: Fix work re-schedule after cancel in xfrm_nat_keepalive_net_fini()
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2026 09:33:58 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260323083440.2741292-18-steffen.klassert@secunet.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260323083440.2741292-1-steffen.klassert@secunet.com>

From: Hyunwoo Kim <imv4bel@gmail.com>

After cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called from
xfrm_nat_keepalive_net_fini(), xfrm_state_fini() flushes remaining
states via __xfrm_state_delete(), which calls
xfrm_nat_keepalive_state_updated() to re-schedule nat_keepalive_work.

The following is a simple race scenario:

           cpu0                             cpu1

cleanup_net() [Round 1]
  ops_undo_list()
    xfrm_net_exit()
      xfrm_nat_keepalive_net_fini()
        cancel_delayed_work_sync(nat_keepalive_work);
      xfrm_state_fini()
        xfrm_state_flush()
          xfrm_state_delete(x)
            __xfrm_state_delete(x)
              xfrm_nat_keepalive_state_updated(x)
                schedule_delayed_work(nat_keepalive_work);
  rcu_barrier();
  net_complete_free();
  net_passive_dec(net);
    llist_add(&net->defer_free_list, &defer_free_list);

cleanup_net() [Round 2]
  rcu_barrier();
  net_complete_free()
    kmem_cache_free(net_cachep, net);
                                     nat_keepalive_work()
                                       // on freed net

To prevent this, cancel_delayed_work_sync() is replaced with
disable_delayed_work_sync().
