Subject: [PATCH net 3/3] net/smc: Resolve the race between SMC-R link access and clear
We encountered some crashes caused by the race between smc-r
link access and link clear that triggered by abnormal link
group termination, such as port error.
Here is an example of this kind of crashes:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
Workqueue: smc_hs_wq smc_listen_work [smc]
RIP: 0010:smc_llc_flow_initiate+0x44/0x190 [smc]
Call Trace:

smc_listen_work() __smc_lgr_terminate()
---------------------------------------------------------------
| smc_lgr_free()
| |- smcr_link_clear()
| |- memset(lnk, 0)
smc_listen_rdma_reg() |
|- smcr_lgr_reg_rmbs() |
|- smc_llc_flow_initiate() |
|- access lnk->lgr (panic) |
These crashes are similarly caused by clearing SMC-R link
resources when some functions is still accessing to them. So
this patch tries to fix the issue by introducing reference
count of smc-r links and ensuring that the sensitive resources
of links are not cleared until reference count is zero.
The operation to the SMC-R link reference count can be concluded
as follows:
object [hold or initialized as 1] [put]
--------------------------------------------------------------------
links smcr_link_init() smcr_link_clear()
connections smcr_lgr_conn_assign_link() smc_conn_free()
Through this way, the clear of SMC-R links is later than the
free of all the smc connections above it, thus avoiding the
unsafe reference to SMC-R links.
