I just found a flaw in our work: there is currently no way to forbid the
deletion of item/symlinks...
If you do:
modprobe vkms
cd /sys/kernel/config/vkms/
mkdir DEV
mkdir DEV/connectors/CON
mkdir DEV/planes/PLA
mkdir DEV/crtcs/CRT
mkdir DEV/encoders/ENC
ln -s DEV/crtcs/CRT DEV/planes/PLA/possible_crtcs/
ln -s DEV/crtcs/CRT DEV/encoders/ENC/possible_crtcs
ln -s DEV/encoders/ENC DEV/connectors/CON/possible_encoders
echo 1 > DEV/planes/PLA/type
tree
echo 1 > DEV/enabled
modetest -M vkms
=> everything fine
rm DEV/connectors/CON/possible_encoders/ENC
rmdir DEV/connectors/CON
modetest -M vkms
=> BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free
I see two solutions:
- we don't care and keep as is: if the device is enabled, and you delete
link/groups, it is your fault. As shown above: it can crash the kernel,
so it is a no-go.
- we care and we don't want to touch configfs: we need to implement a
kind of refcount for all vkms_config elements. Issue: non-trivial work,
may allow memory leaks/use after free...
- we care and we want to touch configfs: see my two patches (they apply
on the v1 of this series). This solution allows adding a check before
removing configfs item/group/link. I found it cleaner and way easier to
understand.
What do you think about my proposition? Do you have another idea?
