genhd: Fix use after free in __blkdev_get()
When two blkdev_open() calls race with device removal and recreation, __blkdev_get() can use looked up gendisk after it is freed: CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 del_gendisk(disk); bdev_unhash_inode(inode); blkdev_open() blkdev_open() bdev = bd_acquire(inode); - creates and returns new inode bdev = bd_acquire(inode); - returns the same inode __blkdev_get(devt) __blkdev_get(devt) disk = get_gendisk(devt); - got structure of device going away <finish device removal> <new device gets created under the same device number> disk = get_gendisk(devt); - got new device structure if (!bdev->bd_openers) { does the first open } if (!bdev->bd_openers) - false } else { put_disk_and_module(disk) - remember this was old device - this was last ref and disk is now freed } disk_unblock_events(disk); -> oops Fix the problem by making sure we drop reference to disk in __blkdev_get() only after we are really done with it.
