There is a potential deadlock in rxrpc_peer_keepalive_dispatch() whereby rxrpc_put_peer() is called with the peer_hash_lock held, but if it reduces the peer's refcount to 0, rxrpc_put_peer() calls __rxrpc_put_peer() - which the tries to take the already held lock. Fix this by providing a version of rxrpc_put_peer() that can be called in situations where the lock is already held. The bug may produce the following lockdep report: ============================================ WARNING: possible recursive locking detected 5.2.0-next-20190718 #41 Not tainted -------------------------------------------- kworker/0:3/21678 is trying to acquire lock: 00000000aa5eecdf (&(&rxnet->peer_hash_lock)->rlock){+.-.}, at: spin_lock_bh /./include/linux/spinlock.h:343 [inline] 00000000aa5eecdf (&(&rxnet->peer_hash_lock)->rlock){+.-.}, at: __rxrpc_put_peer /net/rxrpc/peer_object.c:415 [inline] 00000000aa5eecdf (&(&rxnet->peer_hash_lock)->rlock){+.-.}, at: rxrpc_put_peer+0x2d3/0x6a0 /net/rxrpc/peer_object.c:435 but task is already holding lock: 00000000aa5eecdf (&(&rxnet->peer_hash_lock)->rlock){+.-.}, at: spin_lock_bh /./include/linux/spinlock.h:343 [inline] 00000000aa5eecdf (&(&rxnet->peer_hash_lock)->rlock){+.-.}, at: rxrpc_peer_keepalive_dispatch /net/rxrpc/peer_event.c:378 [inline] 00000000aa5eecdf (&(&rxnet->peer_hash_lock)->rlock){+.-.}, at: rxrpc_peer_keepalive_worker+0x6b3/0xd02 /net/rxrpc/peer_event.c:430 Fixes: 330bdcfadcee ("rxrpc: Fix the keepalive generator [ver #2]") Reported-by: syzbot+72af434e4b3417318f84@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Marc Dionne <marc.dionne@auristor.com> Reviewed-by: Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@auristor.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
