Subject: [PATCH v2] locking/ww_mutex: Adjust to lockdep nest_lock requirements
When using mutex_acquire_nest() with a nest_lock, lockdep refcounts the
number of acquired lockdep_maps of mutexes of the same class, and also
keeps a pointer to the first acquired lockdep_map of a class. That pointer
is then used for various comparison-, printing- and checking purposes,
but there is no mechanism to actively ensure that lockdep_map stays in
memory. Instead, a warning is printed if the lockdep_map is freed and
there are still held locks of the same lock class, even if the lockdep_map
itself has been released.
In the context of WW/WD transactions that means that if a user unlocks
and frees a ww_mutex from within an ongoing ww transaction, and that
mutex happens to be the first ww_mutex grabbed in the transaction,
such a warning is printed and there might be a risk of a UAF.
Note that this is only problem when lockdep is enabled and affects only
dereferences of struct lockdep_map.
Adjust to this by adding a fake lockdep_map to the acquired context and
make sure it is the first acquired lockdep map of the associated
ww_mutex class. Then hold it for the duration of the WW/WD transaction.
This has the side effect that trying to lock a ww mutex *without* a
ww_acquire_context but where a such context has been acquire, we'd see
a lockdep splat. The test-ww_mutex.c selftest attempts to do that, so
modify that particular test to not acquire a ww_acquire_context if it
is not going to be used.
v2:
- Lower the number of locks in the test-ww_mutex
stress(STRESS_ALL) test to accommodate the dummy lock
introduced in this patch without overflowing lockdep held lock
references.
