The problem is that an # asynchronous call that holds a resource pointed to by call->reply[0] will # find the pointer cleared in the call destructor, thereby preventing the # resource from being cleaned up. # # In the case of the server record leak, the afs_fs_get_capabilities() # function in devel code sets up a call with reply[0] pointing at the server # record that should be altered when the result is obtained, but this was # being cleared before the destructor was called, so the put in the # destructor does nothing and the record is leaked. # # Commit f014ffb025c1 removed the additional ref obtained by # afs_install_server(), but the removal of this ref is actually used by the # garbage collector to mark a server record as being defunct after the record # has expired through lack of use. # # The offending clearance of call->reply[0] upon completion in # afs_process_async_call() has been there from the origin of the code, but # none of the asynchronous calls actually use that pointer currently, so it # should be safe to remove (note that synchronous calls don't involve this # function). # # Fix this by the following means: # # (1) Revert commit f014ffb025c1. # # (2) Remove the clearance of reply[0] from afs_process_async_call(). # # Without this, afs_manage_servers() will suffer an assertion failure if it # sees a server record that didn't get used because the usage count is not 1. # # Fixes: f014ffb025c1 ("afs: Fix afs_server struct leak") # Fixes: 08e0e7c82eea ("[AF_RXRPC]: Make the in-kernel AFS filesystem use AF_RXRPC.") # Signed-off-by: David Howells # Cc: stable # Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-gcc --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 f0a7d1883d9f78ae7bf15fc258bf9a2b20f35b76 # < make -s -j 48 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/linus_allmodconfig+ppc64le_ppc64le-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- allmodconfig # Added to kconfig CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN=y # Added to kconfig CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=n # Added to kconfig CONFIG_MODULE_SIG=n # Added to kconfig CONFIG_SAMPLES=n # yes \n | make -s -j 48 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/linus_allmodconfig+ppc64le_ppc64le-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- oldconfig yes: standard output: Broken pipe # make -s -j 48 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/linus_allmodconfig+ppc64le_ppc64le-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- In file included from /kisskb/src/include/linux/io.h:25:0, from /kisskb/src/include/linux/of_address.h:7, from /kisskb/src/drivers/ata/ahci_qoriq.c:18: /kisskb/src/drivers/ata/ahci_qoriq.c: In function 'ahci_qoriq_hardreset': /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h:160:2: warning: 'px_is' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] __asm__ __volatile__("sync;"#insn"%U0%X0 %1,%0" \ ^ /kisskb/src/drivers/ata/ahci_qoriq.c:86:14: note: 'px_is' was declared here u32 px_cmd, px_is, px_val; ^ In file included from /kisskb/src/include/linux/io.h:25:0, from /kisskb/src/include/linux/of_address.h:7, from /kisskb/src/drivers/ata/ahci_qoriq.c:18: /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h:160:2: warning: 'px_cmd' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] __asm__ __volatile__("sync;"#insn"%U0%X0 %1,%0" \ ^ /kisskb/src/drivers/ata/ahci_qoriq.c:86:6: note: 'px_cmd' was declared here u32 px_cmd, px_is, px_val; ^ /kisskb/src/scripts/unifdef.c: In function 'Mpass': /kisskb/src/scripts/unifdef.c:453:28: warning: 'strncpy' output truncated before terminating nul copying 4 bytes from a string of the same length [-Wstringop-truncation] static void Mpass (void) { strncpy(keyword, "if ", 4); Pelif(); } ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x36b4): Section mismatch in reference from the variable __boot_from_prom to the function .init.text:prom_init() The function __boot_from_prom() references the function __init prom_init().
