[PATCH] tty: tty_io: remove hung_up_tty_fops

From: Tetsuo Handa
Date: Wed Apr 26 2023 - 07:05:33 EST


syzbot is reporting data race between __tty_hangup() and __fput(), for
filp->f_op readers are not holding tty->files_lock.

Dmitry Vyukov mentioned that this race has possibility of NULL pointer
dereference, for tty_fops implements e.g. splice_read callback whereas
hung_up_tty_fops does not.

---- ----
do_splice_to() {
__tty_hangup() {
// f_op->splice_read was generic_file_splice_read
if (unlikely(!in->f_op->splice_read))
return warn_unsupported(in, "read");
filp->f_op = &hung_up_tty_fops;
// f_op->splice_read is now NULL
return in->f_op->splice_read(in, ppos, pipe, len, flags);
}
}

If we care about only NULL pointer dereference, implementing missing
callbacks to hung_up_tty_fops is fine. But if we also care about KCSAN
reports, we will need to wrap all filp->f_op usages which are reachable
via tty_fops callbacks using data_race().

Such wrapping is overkill as a fix for tty_io code. Therefore, instead of
implementing missing callbacks, stop updating filp->f_op and remove
hung_up_tty_fops. Then, changes will be limited to within tty_io code.

tty_open() is doing "filp->f_op = &tty_fops;".
__tty_hangup() is doing "filp->f_op = &hung_up_tty_fops;".
tty_hung_up_p() is doing "filp->f_op == &hung_up_tty_fops", and
most functions are checking tty_hung_up_p().

Since tty_open() allocates "struct tty_file_private" for each
"struct file", we can remember whether __tty_hangup() was called
by adding a flag to "struct tty_file_private".

Below is detail of where/what to change.

Regarding __tty_hangup(), replace "filp->f_op = &hung_up_tty_fops;" with
setting the above-mentioned flag.

Regarding tty_hungup_p(), replace "filp->f_op == &hung_up_tty_fops" with
"filp->f_op == &tty_fops" and check the above-mentioned flag.

Regarding tty_open(), just remove "filp->f_op = &tty_fops;" because
"struct tty_file_private" was already released by tty_del_file() from
tty_release() when control reaches this line.

Regarding tty_{read,write,poll,ioctl,compat_ioctl}(), respectively embed
hung_up_tty_{read,write,poll,ioctl,compat_ioctl}() right before
tty_paranoia_check().

Regarding tty_fasync(), embed hung_up_tty_fasync() right before tty_lock()
in tty_fasync() rather than tty_paranoia_check() in __tty_fasync(), for
tty_hung_up_p() is checked right after tty_lock() returned.

Since tty_read() is called via file->f_op->read_iter() from
call_read_iter() from generic_file_splice_read(), no change is needed for
tty_fops->splice_read.

Since tty_write() is called via file->f_op->write_iter() from
call_write_iter() from do_iter_readv_writev() from do_iter_write() from
vfs_iter_write() from iter_file_splice_write(), no change is needed for
tty_fops->splice_write.

Since both tty_fops and hung_up_tty_fops point to the same callback for
llseek/release, no change is needed for tty_fops->{llseek,release}.

Finally, remove hung_up_tty_fops.
