Emm, it happens after the grace period, so you have a gap where a
request may read a freed eventfd... What I think you wanted to do
is more like below:
io_eventfd_put() {
evfd = ...;
eventfd_ctx_put(evfd->evfd);
kfree(io_ev_fd);
}
register() {
mutex_lock();
ev_fd = rcu_deref();
if (ev_fd) {
rcu_assign_pointer(ctx->evfd, NULL);
call_rcu(&ev_fd->evfd, io_eventfd_put);
}
mutex_unlock();
}
Note, there's no need in ->unregistering. I also doubt you need
->ev_fd_lock, how about just using already taken ->uring_lock?
