Subject: [PATCH] sunrpc: defer rq_argp and rq_resp free until after RCU grace
 period
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

svc_rqst_free() frees rqstp->rq_argp and rqstp->rq_resp synchronously
via kfree(), but defers the rqstp struct free via kfree_rcu().  After
svc_exit_thread() calls list_del_rcu() and svc_rqst_free(), there is
a window where RCU readers that started before list_del_rcu() can still
traverse the thread list and find the rqstp.  These readers (e.g.
nfsd_nl_rpc_status_get_dumpit()) dereference rqstp->rq_argp, which has
already been freed — a use-after-free.

Fix this by moving the kfree of rq_argp and rq_resp into an explicit
call_rcu() callback alongside the struct free.  Resources not accessed
by RCU readers (bvec, buffer pages, scratch folio, auth_data) remain
synchronously freed.

Fixes: 812443865c5f ("sunrpc: add a rcu_head to svc_rqst and use kfree_rcu to free it")

[ Upstream commit e3274026e2ec69eec6ab51bc499e14bb548548d0 ]

svc_xprt_handle() does lots of things itself, but leaves some to the
caller - svc_recv().  This isn't elegant.

Move that code out of svc_recv() into svc_xprt_handle()

Move the calls to svc_xprt_release() from svc_send() and svc_drop()
(the two possible final steps in svc_process()) and from svc_recv() (in
the case where svc_process() wasn't called) into svc_xprt_handle().

[ Upstream commit deb704281f076097b0347116a82edeba96697db1 ]

NFSD will use this new API to determine whether nfsd_splice_read is
safe to use. This avoids the need to add a dependency to NFSD for
CONFIG_SUNRPC_GSS.

[ Upstream commit 5f71f3c325534da55dfda487a67208e2e0f0cd1b ]

Allow the pool_mode setting code to be called from internal callers
so we can call it from a new netlink op. Add a new svc_pool_map_get
function to return the current setting. Change the existing module
parameter handling to use the new interfaces under the hood.

[ Upstream commit f2b27e1d72527f94f030b6356b3187576e60885b ]

Various functions are only used within the sunrpc module, and several
are only use in the one file.  So clean up:

These are marked static, and any EXPORT is removed.
  svc_rcpb_setup()
  svc_rqst_alloc()
  svc_rqst_free()  - also moved before first use
  svc_rpcbind_set_version()
  svc_drop() - also moved to svc.c

These are now not EXPORTed, but are not static.
  svc_authenticate()
  svc_sock_update_bufs()

[ Upstream commit d57e43b72bf2071caac90da323849c3983a695f0 ]

The only snag here is that __folio_alloc_node() doesn't handle
NUMA_NO_NODE, so I also need to update svc_pool_map_get_node() to return
numa_mem_id() instead. I arrived at this approach by  looking at what
other users of __folio_alloc_node() do for this case.

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit c479bde671cbe2f9e152834a8b0eb7c3c295bbaf ]

svc_rqst_free() frees rqstp->rq_argp and rqstp->rq_resp synchronously
via kfree(), but defers the rqstp struct free via kfree_rcu().  After
svc_exit_thread() calls list_del_rcu() and svc_rqst_free(), there is
a window where RCU readers that started before list_del_rcu() can still
traverse the thread list and find the rqstp.  These readers (e.g.
nfsd_nl_rpc_status_get_dumpit()) dereference rqstp->rq_argp, which has
already been freed — a use-after-free.

Fix this by moving the kfree of rq_argp and rq_resp into an explicit
call_rcu() callback alongside the struct free.  Resources not accessed
by RCU readers (bvec, buffer pages, scratch folio, auth_data) remain
synchronously freed.

Fixes: 812443865c5f ("sunrpc: add a rcu_head to svc_rqst and use kfree_rcu to free it")

[ Upstream commit e3274026e2ec69eec6ab51bc499e14bb548548d0 ]

svc_xprt_handle() does lots of things itself, but leaves some to the
caller - svc_recv().  This isn't elegant.

Move that code out of svc_recv() into svc_xprt_handle()

Move the calls to svc_xprt_release() from svc_send() and svc_drop()
(the two possible final steps in svc_process()) and from svc_recv() (in
the case where svc_process() wasn't called) into svc_xprt_handle().

From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

[ Upstream commit deb704281f076097b0347116a82edeba96697db1 ]

NFSD will use this new API to determine whether nfsd_splice_read is
safe to use. This avoids the need to add a dependency to NFSD for
CONFIG_SUNRPC_GSS.

[ Upstream commit 5f71f3c325534da55dfda487a67208e2e0f0cd1b ]

Allow the pool_mode setting code to be called from internal callers
so we can call it from a new netlink op. Add a new svc_pool_map_get
function to return the current setting. Change the existing module
parameter handling to use the new interfaces under the hood.

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit c479bde671cbe2f9e152834a8b0eb7c3c295bbaf ]

svc_rqst_free() frees rqstp->rq_argp and rqstp->rq_resp synchronously
via kfree(), but defers the rqstp struct free via kfree_rcu().  After
svc_exit_thread() calls list_del_rcu() and svc_rqst_free(), there is
a window where RCU readers that started before list_del_rcu() can still
traverse the thread list and find the rqstp.  These readers (e.g.
nfsd_nl_rpc_status_get_dumpit()) dereference rqstp->rq_argp, which has
already been freed — a use-after-free.

Fix this by moving the kfree of rq_argp and rq_resp into an explicit
call_rcu() callback alongside the struct free.  Resources not accessed
by RCU readers (bvec, buffer pages, scratch folio, auth_data) remain
synchronously freed.

Fixes: 812443865c5f ("sunrpc: add a rcu_head to svc_rqst and use kfree_rcu to free it")
