kernel/notifier.c: intercept duplicate registrations to avoid infinite loops
[ Upstream commit 1a50cb80f2
]
Registering the same notifier to a hook repeatedly can cause the hook
list to form a ring or lose other members of the list.
case1: An infinite loop in notifier_chain_register() can cause soft lockup
atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test2);
case2: An infinite loop in notifier_chain_register() can cause soft lockup
atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
atomic_notifier_call_chain(&test_notifier_list, 0, NULL);
case3: lose other hook test2
atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test2);
atomic_notifier_chain_register(&test_notifier_list, &test1);
case4: Unregister returns 0, but the hook is still in the linked list,
and it is not really registered. If you call
notifier_call_chain after ko is unloaded, it will trigger oops.
If the system is configured with softlockup_panic and the same hook is
repeatedly registered on the panic_notifier_list, it will cause a loop
panic.
Add a check in notifier_chain_register(), intercepting duplicate
registrations to avoid infinite loops
