From 84258438e8ce12d6888b68a1238bba9cb25307e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Taehee Yoo Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2018 00:35:10 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] net: bpfilter: use get_pid_task instead of pid_task pid_task() dereferences rcu protected tasks array. But there is no rcu_read_lock() in shutdown_umh() routine so that rcu_read_lock() is needed. get_pid_task() is wrapper function of pid_task. it holds rcu_read_lock() then calls pid_task(). if task isn't NULL, it increases reference count of task. test commands: %modprobe bpfilter %modprobe -rv bpfilter splat looks like: [15102.030932] ============================= [15102.030957] WARNING: suspicious RCU usage [15102.030985] 4.19.0-rc7+ #21 Not tainted [15102.031010] ----------------------------- [15102.031038] kernel/pid.c:330 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!
