net-sysfs: Fix reference count leak
Netdev_register_kobject is calling device_initialize. In case of error reference taken by device_initialize is not given up. Drivers are supposed to call free_netdev in case of error. In non-error case the last reference is given up there and device release sequence is triggered. In error case this reference is kept and the release sequence is never started. Fix this by setting reg_state as NETREG_UNREGISTERED if registering fails. This is the rootcause for couple of memory leaks reported by Syzkaller: BUG: memory leak unreferenced object 0xffff8880675ca008 (size 256): comm "netdev_register", pid 281, jiffies 4294696663 (age 6.808s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<0000000058ca4711>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x167/0x280 [<000000002340019b>] device_add+0x882/0x1750 [<000000001d588c3a>] netdev_register_kobject+0x128/0x380 [<0000000011ef5535>] register_netdevice+0xa1b/0xf00 [<000000007fcf1c99>] __tun_chr_ioctl+0x20d5/0x3dd0 [<000000006a5b7b2b>] tun_chr_ioctl+0x2f/0x40 [<00000000f30f834a>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x1c7/0x1510 [<00000000fba062ea>] ksys_ioctl+0x99/0xb0 [<00000000b1c1b8d2>] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x78/0xb0 [<00000000984cabb9>] do_syscall_64+0x16f/0x580 [<000000000bde033d>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 [<00000000e6ca2d9f>] 0xffffffffffffffff BUG: memory leak unreferenced object 0xffff8880668ba588 (size 8): comm "kobject_set_nam", pid 286, jiffies 4294725297 (age 9.871s) hex dump (first 8 bytes): 6e 72 30 00 cc be df 2b nr0....+ backtrace: [<00000000a322332a>] __kmalloc_track_caller+0x16e/0x290 [<00000000236fd26b>] kstrdup+0x3e/0x70 [<00000000dd4a2815>] kstrdup_const+0x3e/0x50 [<0000000049a377fc>] kvasprintf_const+0x10e/0x160 [<00000000627fc711>] kobject_set_name_vargs+0x5b/0x140 [<0000000019eeab06>] dev_set_name+0xc0/0xf0 [<0000000069cb12bc>] netdev_register_kobject+0xc8/0x320 [<00000000f2e83732>] register_netdevice+0xa1b/0xf00 [<000000009e1f57cc>] __tun_chr_ioctl+0x20d5/0x3dd0 [<000000009c560784>] tun_chr_ioctl+0x2f/0x40 [<000000000d759e02>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x1c7/0x1510 [<00000000351d7c31>] ksys_ioctl+0x99/0xb0 [<000000008390040a>] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x78/0xb0 [<0000000052d196b7>] do_syscall_64+0x16f/0x580 [<0000000019af9236>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 [<00000000bc384531>] 0xffffffffffffffff v3 -> v4: Set reg_state to NETREG_UNREGISTERED if registering fails v2 -> v3: * Replaced BUG_ON with WARN_ON in free_netdev and netdev_release v1 -> v2: * Relying on driver calling free_netdev rather than calling put_device directly in error path Reported-by: syzbot+ad8ca40ecd77896d51e2@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Lukas Bulwahn <lukas.bulwahn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jouni Hogander <jouni.hogander@unikie.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
