Subject: Badness around put_cred()
Hi,
I was fuzzing linux kernel for some time, and there seems to be a bug,
which kicks in relatively quickly (a few hours at most), which ends up
with warn() or panic() - depending on options compiled in
(CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS, preemption mode). I was looking briefly
through kernel code, and I think it might be related to the
include/linux/cred.h::
static inline void put_cred(const struct cred *_cred)
{
struct cred *cred = (struct cred *) _cred;
validate_creds(cred);
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&(cred)->usage))
__put_cred(cred);
}
which checks whether the usage counter is different than 0, and maybe
it should be checking whether it is >0.
All in all, I don't understand the whole cred/rcu code yet, so just
dumping the data, in case somebody else can spot the problem quicker.
The kernel versions are 2.6.39 and 3.2
