From 028cf5eaa12846c4e32104132ff70ca1cd6f5943 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Tue, 25 Apr 2023 20:49:05 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] posix-timers: Annotate concurrent access to k_itimer:: It_signal k_itimer::it_signal is read lockless in the RCU protected hash lookup, but it can be written concurrently in the timer_create() and timer_delete() path. Annotate these places with READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Reviewed-by: Frederic Weisbecker Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230425183313.143596887@linutronix.de --- kernel/time/posix-timers.c | 14 +++++++------- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/time/posix-timers.c b/kernel/time/posix-timers.c index d7890ac..de3fca8 100644 --- a/kernel/time/posix-timers.c +++ b/kernel/time/posix-timers.c @@ -109,9 +109,9 @@ static struct k_itimer *__posix_timers_find(struct hlist_head *head, { struct k_itimer *timer; - hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(timer, head, t_hash, - lockdep_is_held(&hash_lock)) { - if ((timer->it_signal == sig) && (timer->it_id == id)) + hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(timer, head, t_hash, lockdep_is_held(&hash_lock)) { + /* timer->it_signal can be set concurrently */ + if ((READ_ONCE(timer->it_signal) == sig) && (timer->it_id == id)) return timer; } return NULL; @@ -558,7 +558,7 @@ static int do_timer_create(clockid_t which_clock, struct sigevent *event, spin_lock_irq(¤t->sighand->siglock); /* This makes the timer valid in the hash table */ - new_timer->it_signal = current->signal; + WRITE_ONCE(new_timer->it_signal, current->signal); list_add(&new_timer->list, ¤t->signal->posix_timers); spin_unlock_irq(¤t->sighand->siglock); @@ -1052,10 +1052,10 @@ retry_delete: list_del(&timer->list); spin_unlock(¤t->sighand->siglock); /* - * This keeps any tasks waiting on the spin lock from thinking - * they got something (see the lock code above). + * A concurrent lookup could check timer::it_signal lockless.
