From db20a8925bc420eed033c5d91ff6afa74465e521 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Howells Date: Wed, 3 Aug 2016 17:57:39 +0100 Subject: cachefiles: Fix race between inactivating and culling a cache object There's a race between cachefiles_mark_object_inactive() and cachefiles_cull(): (1) cachefiles_cull() can't delete a backing file until the cache object is marked inactive, but as soon as that's the case it's fair game. (2) cachefiles_mark_object_inactive() marks the object as being inactive and *only then* reads the i_blocks on the backing inode - but cachefiles_cull() might've managed to delete it by this point. Fix this by making sure cachefiles_mark_object_inactive() gets any data it needs from the backing inode before deactivating the object. Without this, the following oops may occur: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000098 IP: [] cachefiles_mark_object_inactive+0x61/0xb0 [cachefiles] ...
