commit 2d9a2c5f58 upstream.
Before v4.15 commit 75492a5156 ("s390/scsi: Convert timers to use
timer_setup()"), we intentionally only passed zfcp_adapter as context
argument to zfcp_fsf_request_timeout_handler(). Since we only trigger
adapter recovery, it was unnecessary to sync against races between timeout
and (late) completion. Likewise, we only passed zfcp_erp_action as context
argument to zfcp_erp_timeout_handler(). Since we only wakeup an ERP action,
it was unnecessary to sync against races between timeout and (late)
completion.
Meanwhile the timeout handlers get timer_list as context argument and do a
timer-specific container-of to zfcp_fsf_req which can have been freed.
Fix it by making sure that any request timeout handlers, that might just
have started before del_timer(), are completed by using del_timer_sync()
instead. This ensures the request free happens afterwards.
Space time diagram of potential use-after-free:
Basic idea is to have 2 or more pending requests whose timeouts run out at
almost the same time.
req 1 timeout ERP thread req 2 timeout
---------------- ---------------- ---------------------------------------
zfcp_fsf_request_timeout_handler
fsf_req = from_timer(fsf_req, t, timer)
adapter = fsf_req->adapter
zfcp_qdio_siosl(adapter)
zfcp_erp_adapter_reopen(adapter,...)
zfcp_erp_strategy
...
zfcp_fsf_req_dismiss_all
list_for_each_entry_safe
zfcp_fsf_req_complete 1
del_timer 1
zfcp_fsf_req_free 1
zfcp_fsf_req_complete 2
zfcp_fsf_request_timeout_handler
del_timer 2
fsf_req = from_timer(fsf_req, t, timer)
zfcp_fsf_req_free 2
adapter = fsf_req->adapter
^^^^^^^ already freed
