Subject: [PATCH 3.12 64/72] KEYS: Fix crash when attempt to garbage collect an uninstantiated keyring

From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit f05819df10d7b09f6d1eb6f8534a8f68e5a4fe61 upstream.

The following sequence of commands:

    i=`keyctl add user a a @s`
    keyctl request2 keyring foo bar @t
    keyctl unlink $i @s

tries to invoke an upcall to instantiate a keyring if one doesn't already
exist by that name within the user's keyring set.  However, if the upcall
fails, the code sets keyring->type_data.reject_error to -ENOKEY or some
other error code.  When the key is garbage collected, the key destroy
function is called unconditionally and keyring_destroy() uses list_empty()
on keyring->type_data.link - which is in a union with reject_error.
Subsequently, the kernel tries to unlink the keyring from the keyring names
list - which oopses like this:

	BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00000000ffffff8a

	 [<ffffffff810647ba>] ? kthread_create_on_node+0x1c2/0x1c2

Note the value in RAX.  This is a 32-bit representation of -ENOKEY.

The solution is to only call ->destroy() if the key was successfully
instantiated.
