From 6061e740822530a4ef443548b19c4e0bc6342c7a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Waiman Long Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2023 23:01:10 -0500 Subject: mm/kmemleak: simplify kmemleak_cond_resched() usage Patch series "mm/kmemleak: Simplify kmemleak_cond_resched() & fix UAF", v2. It was found that a KASAN use-after-free error was reported in the kmemleak_scan() function. After further examination, it is believe that even though a reference is taken from the current object, it does not prevent the object pointed to by the next pointer from going away after a cond_resched(). To fix that, additional flags are added to make sure that the current object won't be removed from the object_list during the duration of the cond_resched() to ensure the validity of the next pointer. While making the change, I also simplify the current usage of kmemleak_cond_resched() to make it easier to understand. This patch (of 2): The presence of a pinned argument and the 64k loop count make kmemleak_cond_resched() a bit more complex to read. The pinned argument is used only by first kmemleak_scan() loop. Simplify the usage of kmemleak_cond_resched() by removing the pinned argument and always do a get_object()/put_object() sequence. In addition, the 64k loop is removed by using need_resched() to decide if kmemleak_cond_resched() should be called.
