erofs may encounter above panic when enabling file-backed mount w/ directio
mount option, the root cause is it may suffer UAF in below race condition:
- z_erofs_read_folio wq s_dio_done_wq
- z_erofs_runqueue
- erofs_fileio_submit_bio
- erofs_fileio_rq_submit
- vfs_iocb_iter_read
- ext4_file_read_iter
- ext4_dio_read_iter
- iomap_dio_rw
: bio was submitted and return -EIOCBQUEUED
- dio_aio_complete_work
- dio_complete
- dio->iocb->ki_complete (erofs_fileio_ki_complete())
- kfree(rq)
: it frees iocb, iocb.ki_filp can be UAF in file_accessed().
- file_accessed
: access NULL file point
Introduce a reference count in struct erofs_fileio_rq, and initialize it
as two, both erofs_fileio_ki_complete() and erofs_fileio_rq_submit() will
decrease reference count, the last one decreasing the reference count
to zero will free rq.
