Subject: [PATCH net] net/rds: fix NULL deref in rds_ib_send_cqe_handler() on masked atomic completion
Date: Sat, 6 Jun 2026 12:24:48 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260606192447.1179255-2-bestswngs@gmail.com> (raw)
rds_ib_xmit_atomic() always programs a masked atomic opcode
(IB_WR_MASKED_ATOMIC_CMP_AND_SWP or IB_WR_MASKED_ATOMIC_FETCH_AND_ADD)
for every RDS atomic cmsg. But the completion-side switch in
rds_ib_send_unmap_op() only handles the non-masked opcodes, so a masked
atomic completion falls through to default and returns rm == NULL while
send->s_op is left set. rds_ib_send_cqe_handler() then dereferences the
NULL rm via rm->m_final_op, oopsing in softirq context. An unprivileged
AF_RDS sendmsg() of an atomic cmsg over an active RDS/IB connection
triggers it; on hardware that natively accepts masked atomics (mlx4,
mlx5) no extra setup is needed.
RDS/IB: rds_ib_send_unmap_op: unexpected opcode 0xd in WR!
Oops: general protection fault [#1] SMP KASAN
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000190-0x0000000000000197]
RIP: rds_ib_send_cqe_handler+0x25c/0xb10 (net/rds/ib_send.c:282)

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
Handle the masked atomic opcodes in the same case as the non-masked
ones: they map to the same struct rds_message.atomic union member, so
the existing container_of()/rds_ib_send_unmap_atomic() body is correct
for them.
