Subject: [PATCH v5a 0/5] timers: Use timer_shutdown*() before freeing timers
del_timer_sync() is often called before the object that owns the timer is
freed. But sometimes there's a race that enables the timer again before it is
freed and causes a use after free when that timer triggers. This patch set
adds a new "shutdown" timer state, which is set on the new timer_shutdown()
API. Once a timer is in this state, it can not be re-armed and if it is, it
will warn.
The first three patches change existing timer_shutdown() functions used
locally in ARM and some drivers to better namespace names.
The fourth patch implements the new API.
The fifth patch is now a treewide patch that uses a coccinelle script to
convert the trivial locations where a del_timer*() is called on a timer of an
object that is freed immediately afterward (or at least in the same function).
Changes since v4a: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221105060024.598488967@goodmis.org/
- Used more consistent names to rename the generic timer_shutdown() code
(Guenter Roeck, Marc Zyngier)
- Remove del_singleshot_timer_sync() change and the fix that it required.
- Improved the coccinelle script such that the fifth patch is unmodified.
Steven Rostedt (Google) (5):
ARM: spear: Do not use timer namespace for timer_shutdown() function
clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Do not use timer namespace for timer_shutdown() function
clocksource/drivers/sp804: Do not use timer namespace for timer_shutdown() function
timers: Add timer_shutdown_sync() and timer_shutdown() to be called before freeing timers
treewide: Convert del_timer*() to timer_shutdown*()
