tracing/histograms: Fix memory leak problem
This reverts commit 46bbe5c671e06f070428b9be142cc4ee5cedebac.
As commit 46bbe5c671e0 ("tracing: fix double free") said, the
"double free" problem reported by clang static analyzer is:
> In parse_var_defs() if there is a problem allocating
> var_defs.expr, the earlier var_defs.name is freed.
> This free is duplicated by free_var_defs() which frees
> the rest of the list.
However, if there is a problem allocating N-th var_defs.expr:
+ in parse_var_defs(), the freed 'earlier var_defs.name' is
actually the N-th var_defs.name;
+ then in free_var_defs(), the names from 0th to (N-1)-th are freed;
IF ALLOCATING PROBLEM HAPPENED HERE!!! -+
\

0th 1th (N-1)-th N-th V
+-------------+-------------+-----+-------------+-----------
var_defs: | name | expr | name | expr | ... | name | expr | name | ///
+-------------+-------------+-----+-------------+-----------
These two frees don't act on same name, so there was no "double free"
problem before. Conversely, after that commit, we get a "memory leak"
problem because the above "N-th var_defs.name" is not freed.
If enable CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK and inject a fault at where the N-th
var_defs.expr allocated, then execute on shell like:
$ echo 'hist:key=call_site:val=$v1,$v2:v1=bytes_req,v2=bytes_alloc' > \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
Then kmemleak reports:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/i915: fix a possible refcount leak in intel_dp_add_mst_connector()
If drm_connector_init fails, intel_connector_free will be called to take
care of proper free. So it is necessary to drop the refcount of port
before intel_connector_free.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ima: Fix a potential integer overflow in ima_appraise_measurement
When the ima-modsig is enabled, the rc passed to evm_verifyxattr() may be
negative, which may cause the integer overflow problem. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sysctl: Fix data races in proc_douintvec().
A sysctl variable is accessed concurrently, and there is always a chance
of data-race. So, all readers and writers need some basic protection to
avoid load/store-tearing.
This patch changes proc_douintvec() to use READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE()
internally to fix data-races on the sysctl side. For now, proc_douintvec()
itself is tolerant to a data-race, but we still need to add annotations on
the other subsystem's side. |

sysctl: Fix data races in proc_douintvec_minmax().

avoid load/store-tearing.
This patch changes proc_douintvec_minmax() to use READ_ONCE() and

proc_douintvec_minmax() itself is tolerant to a data-race, but we still
need to add annotations on the other subsystem's side. |

cipso: Fix data-races around sysctl.
While reading cipso sysctl variables, they can be changed concurrently.
So, we need to add READ_ONCE() to avoid data-races. |

icmp: Fix data-races around sysctl.
While reading icmp sysctl variables, they can be changed concurrently.
So, we need to add READ_ONCE() to avoid data-races. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

While reading sysctl_icmp_echo_enable_probe, it can be changed
concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
icmp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr.
While reading sysctl_icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr, it can be changed
concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
raw: Fix a data-race around sysctl_raw_l3mdev_accept.
While reading sysctl_raw_l3mdev_accept, it can be changed concurrently.
Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader. |

tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_ecn_fallback.
While reading sysctl_tcp_ecn_fallback, it can be changed concurrently.
Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader. |

While reading nexthop_compat_mode, it can be changed concurrently.
Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sfp: fix memory leak in sfp_probe()
sfp_probe() allocates a memory chunk from sfp with sfp_alloc(). When
devm_add_action() fails, sfp is not freed, which leads to a memory leak.
We should use devm_add_action_or_reset() instead of devm_add_action(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: aspeed: Fix potential NULL dereference in aspeed_pinmux_set_mux()
pdesc could be null but still dereference pdesc->name and it will lead to
a null pointer access. So we move a null check before dereference. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: rt711-sdca: fix kernel NULL pointer dereference when IO error
The initial settings will be written before the codec probe function.
But, the rt711->component doesn't be assigned yet.
If IO error happened during initial settings operations, it will cause the kernel panic.
This patch changed component->dev to slave->dev to fix this issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
power/reset: arm-versatile: Fix refcount leak in versatile_reboot_probe
of_find_matching_node_and_match() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when not need anymore.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: ralink: Check for null return of devm_kcalloc
Because of the possible failure of the allocation, data->domains might
be NULL pointer and will cause the dereference of the NULL pointer
later.
Therefore, it might be better to check it and directly return -ENOMEM
without releasing data manually if fails, because the comment of the
devm_kmalloc() says "Memory allocated with this function is
automatically freed on driver detach.". |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/core: Fix data race between perf_event_set_output() and perf_mmap_close()
Yang Jihing reported a race between perf_event_set_output() and
perf_mmap_close():
CPU1 CPU2
perf_mmap_close(e2)
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&e2->rb->mmap_count)) // 1 - > 0
detach_rest = true
ioctl(e1, IOC_SET_OUTPUT, e2)
perf_event_set_output(e1, e2)
...
list_for_each_entry_rcu(e, &e2->rb->event_list, rb_entry)
ring_buffer_attach(e, NULL);
// e1 isn't yet added and
// therefore not detached
ring_buffer_attach(e1, e2->rb)
list_add_rcu(&e1->rb_entry,
&e2->rb->event_list)
After this; e1 is attached to an unmapped rb and a subsequent
perf_mmap() will loop forever more:
again:
mutex_lock(&e->mmap_mutex);
if (event->rb) {
...
if (!atomic_inc_not_zero(&e->rb->mmap_count)) {
...
mutex_unlock(&e->mmap_mutex);
goto again;
}
}
The loop in perf_mmap_close() holds e2->mmap_mutex, while the attach
in perf_event_set_output() holds e1->mmap_mutex. As such there is no
serialization to avoid this race.
Change perf_event_set_output() to take both e1->mmap_mutex and
e2->mmap_mutex to alleviate that problem. Additionally, have the loop
in perf_mmap() detach the rb directly, this avoids having to wait for
the concurrent perf_mmap_close() to get around to doing it to make
progress. |
