Since the tee subsystem does not keep a strong reference to its idle
shared memory buffers, it races with other threads that try to destroy a
shared memory through a close of its dma-buf fd or by unmapping the
memory.

In tee_shm_get_from_id() when a lookup in teedev->idr has been
successful, it is possible that the tee_shm is in the dma-buf teardown
path, but that path is blocked by the teedev mutex. Since we don't have
an API to tell if the tee_shm is in the dma-buf teardown path or not we
must find another way of detecting this condition.

Fix this by doing the reference counting directly on the tee_shm using a
new refcount_t refcount field. dma-buf is replaced by using
anon_inode_getfd() instead, this separates the life-cycle of the
underlying file from the tee_shm. tee_shm_put() is updated to hold the
mutex when decreasing the refcount to 0 and then remove the tee_shm from
teedev->idr before releasing the mutex. This means that the tee_shm can
never be found unless it has a refcount larger than 0.
So you are dropping dma-buf support entirely? And anon_inode_getfd()
works instead? Why do more people not do this as well?

Well, I assume that mostly everybody else actually implements DMA-buf support and not just stubs for the callback function which rejects everybody trying to use it with an error.

So yeah, dropping it completely and using an anon file descriptor instead sounds totally like the right thing to do. Especially since the resulting implementation looks simpler over all.

Christian.

As you are using a refcount in the "traditional" way, why not just use a
kref instead? That solves your "do_release" mess here.
