It was brought by the\nrecent fix to cover the racy read/write and other ioctls, and in that\ncommit, I overlooked a (hopefully only) corner case that may take the\nrevert lock, namely, the OSS mmap. The OSS mmap operation\nexceptionally allows to re-configure the parameters inside the OSS\nmmap syscall, where mm->mmap_mutex is already held. Meanwhile, the\ncopy_from/to_user calls at read/write operations also take the\nmm->mmap_lock internally, hence it may lead to a AB/BA deadlock.\n\nA similar problem was already seen in the past and we fixed it with a\nrefcount (in commit b248371628aa). The former fix covered only the\ncall paths with OSS read/write and OSS ioctls, while we need to cover\nthe concurrent access via both ALSA and OSS APIs now.\n\nThis patch addresses the problem above by replacing the buffer_mutex\nlock in the read/write operations with a refcount similar as we've\nused for OSS. The new field, runtime->buffer_accessing, keeps the\nnumber of concurrent read/write operations. Unlike the former\nbuffer_mutex protection, this protects only around the\ncopy_from/to_user() calls; the other codes are basically protected by\nthe PCM stream lock. The refcount can be a negative, meaning blocked\nby the ioctls. If a negative value is seen, the read/write aborts\nwith -EBUSY. In the ioctl side, OTOH, they check this refcount, too,\nand set to a negative value for blocking unless it's already being\naccessed." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "affects": { "vendor": { "vendor_data": [ { "vendor_name": "Linux", "product": { "product_data": [ { "product_name": "Linux", "version": { "version_data": [ { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "73867cb2bc7dfa7fbd219e53a0b68d253d8fda09", "version_value": "7e9133607e1501c94881be35e118d8f84d96dcb4" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "b3830197aa7413c65767cf5a1aa8775c83f0dbf7", "version_value": "40f4cffbe13a51faf136faf5f9ef6847782cd595" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "08d1807f097a63ea00a7067dad89c1c81cb2115e", "version_value": "9661bf674d6a82b76e4ae424438a8ce1e3ed855d" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "8527c8f052fb42091c6569cb928e472376a4a889", "version_value": "9017201e8d8c6d1472273361389ed431188584a0" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "47711ff10c7e126702cfa725f6d86ef529d15a5f", "version_value": "7777744e92a0b30e3e0cce2758d911837011ebd9" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "4d1b0ace2d56dc27cc4921eda7fae57f77f03eb5", "version_value": "abedf0d08c79d76da0d6fa0d5dbbc98871dcbc2e" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "dd2f8c684da3e226e5ec7a81c89ff5fd4a957a03", "version_value": "be9813ad2fc8f0885f5ce6925af0d993ce5da4e5" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "dca947d4d26dbf925a64a6cfb2ddbc035e831a3d", "version_value": "bc55cfd5718c7c23e5524582e9fa70b4d10f2433" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "5.10.109", "version_value": "5.10.110" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "5.15.32", "version_value": "5.15.33" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "5.16.18", "version_value": "5.16.19" }, { "version_affected": "<", "version_name": "5.17.1", "version_value": "5.17.2" } ] } } ] } } ] } }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7e9133607e1501c94881be35e118d8f84d96dcb4", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7e9133607e1501c94881be35e118d8f84d96dcb4" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/40f4cffbe13a51faf136faf5f9ef6847782cd595", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/40f4cffbe13a51faf136faf5f9ef6847782cd595" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9661bf674d6a82b76e4ae424438a8ce1e3ed855d", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9661bf674d6a82b76e4ae424438a8ce1e3ed855d" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9017201e8d8c6d1472273361389ed431188584a0", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9017201e8d8c6d1472273361389ed431188584a0" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7777744e92a0b30e3e0cce2758d911837011ebd9", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7777744e92a0b30e3e0cce2758d911837011ebd9" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/abedf0d08c79d76da0d6fa0d5dbbc98871dcbc2e", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/abedf0d08c79d76da0d6fa0d5dbbc98871dcbc2e" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/be9813ad2fc8f0885f5ce6925af0d993ce5da4e5", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/be9813ad2fc8f0885f5ce6925af0d993ce5da4e5" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bc55cfd5718c7c23e5524582e9fa70b4d10f2433", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bc55cfd5718c7c23e5524582e9fa70b4d10f2433" } ] }, "generator": { "engine": "bippy-5f407fcff5a0" } }
