commit319561669aupstream. In some cases it is possible for mmu_interval_notifier_remove() to race with mn_tree_inv_end() allowing it to return while the notifier data structure is still in use. Consider the following sequence: CPU0 - mn_tree_inv_end() CPU1 - mmu_interval_notifier_remove() ----------------------------------- ------------------------------------ spin_lock(subscriptions->lock); seq = subscriptions->invalidate_seq; spin_lock(subscriptions->lock); spin_unlock(subscriptions->lock); subscriptions->invalidate_seq++; wait_event(invalidate_seq != seq); return; interval_tree_remove(interval_sub); kfree(interval_sub); spin_unlock(subscriptions->lock); wake_up_all(); As the wait_event() condition is true it will return immediately. This can lead to use-after-free type errors if the caller frees the data structure containing the interval notifier subscription while it is still on a deferred list. Fix this by taking the appropriate lock when reading invalidate_seq to ensure proper synchronisation. I observed this whilst running stress testing during some development. You do have to be pretty unlucky, but it leads to the usual problems of use-after-free (memory corruption, kernel crash, difficult to diagnose WARN_ON, etc).

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.
