Subject: [PATCH 3.4 023/107] st: null pointer dereference panic caused by use after kref_put by st_open

From: "Seymour, Shane M" <shane.seymour@...com>

3.4.111-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


commit e7ac6c6666bec0a354758a1298d3231e4a635362 upstream.

Two SLES11 SP3 servers encountered similar crashes simultaneously
following some kind of SAN/tape target issue:

Analysis reveals the cause of the crash to be due to STp->device
being NULL. The pointer was NULLed via scsi_tape_put(STp) when it
calls scsi_tape_release(). In st_open() we jump to err_out after
scsi_block_when_processing_errors() completes and returns the
device as offline (sdev_state was SDEV_DEL):

1180 /* Open the device. Needs to take the BKL only because of incrementing the SCSI host
1181    module count. */
1182 static int st_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp)
1183 {
1184         int i, retval = (-EIO);
1185         int resumed = 0;
1186         struct scsi_tape *STp;
1187         struct st_partstat *STps;
1188         int dev = TAPE_NR(inode);
1189         char *name;
...
1217         if (scsi_autopm_get_device(STp->device) < 0) {
1218                 retval = -EIO;
1219                 goto err_out;
1220         }
1221         resumed = 1;
1222         if (!scsi_block_when_processing_errors(STp->device)) {
1223                 retval = (-ENXIO);
1224                 goto err_out;
1225         }
...
1264  err_out:
1265         normalize_buffer(STp->buffer);
1266         spin_lock(&st_use_lock);
1267         STp->in_use = 0;
1268         spin_unlock(&st_use_lock);
1269         scsi_tape_put(STp); <-- STp->device = 0 after this
1270         if (resumed)
1271                 scsi_autopm_put_device(STp->device);
1272         return retval;

The ref count for the struct scsi_tape had already been reduced
to 1 when the .remove method of the st module had been called.
The kref_put() in scsi_tape_put() caused scsi_tape_release()
to be called:

0266 static void scsi_tape_put(struct scsi_tape *STp)
0267 {
0268         struct scsi_device *sdev = STp->device;
0269
0270         mutex_lock(&st_ref_mutex);
0271         kref_put(&STp->kref, scsi_tape_release); <-- calls this
0272         scsi_device_put(sdev);
0273         mutex_unlock(&st_ref_mutex);
0274 }

In scsi_tape_release() the struct scsi_device in the struct
scsi_tape gets set to NULL:

4273 static void scsi_tape_release(struct kref *kref)
4274 {
4275         struct scsi_tape *tpnt = to_scsi_tape(kref);
4276         struct gendisk *disk = tpnt->disk;
4277
4278         tpnt->device = NULL; <<<---- where the dev is nulled
4279
4280         if (tpnt->buffer) {
4281                 normalize_buffer(tpnt->buffer);
4282                 kfree(tpnt->buffer->reserved_pages);
4283                 kfree(tpnt->buffer);
4284         }
4285
4286         disk->private_data = NULL;
4287         put_disk(disk);
4288         kfree(tpnt);
4289         return;
4290 }

Although the problem was reported on SLES11.3 the problem appears
in linux-next as well.

The crash is fixed by reordering the code so we no longer access
the struct scsi_tape after the kref_put() is done on it in st_open().
