It depends, I think, on eventpoll_release() (really eventpoll_release_file()) synchronizing with epoll_wait() (but I don't see how this happens, and the race seems to be against ep_item_poll() ...?)

It catches it just fine! :) I tested it against the published PoC. And for cases where further allocations have progressed far enough to corrupt the freed struct file and render the check pointless, nothing different has happened than what happens today. At least now we have a window to catch the situation across the time frame before it is both reallocated _and_ the contents at the f_count offset gets changed to non-zero.

It's not ideal, nor pretty, but that's how it currently works. See eventpoll_release() and how it's called. This means that epoll itself is supposedly safe from the file going away, even though it doesn't hold a reference to it. Except that in this case, the file is already gone by the time eventpoll_release() is called. Which presumably is some interaction with the somewhat suspicious file reference management that dma-buf is doing. But I didn't look into that much, outside of noting it looks a bit suspect. >>> Due to this issue I've proposed fixing get_file() to detect pathological states: >>> https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240502222252.work.690-kees@kernel.org/ >> >> I don't think this would catch this case, as the memory could just be >> garbage at this point. > > It catches it just fine! :) I tested it against the published PoC. Sure it _may_ catch the issue, but the memory may also just be garbage at that point. Not saying it's a useless addition, outside of the usual gripes of making the hot path slower, just that it won't catch all cases. Which I guess is fine and expected. > And for cases where further allocations have progressed far enough to > corrupt the freed struct file and render the check pointless, nothing > different has happened than what happens today.

No. That is not enough at all. Because even with perfectly normal "->poll()", and even with the ep_item_poll() happening *before* eventpoll_release_file(), you have this trivial race: ep_item_poll() ->poll() and *between* those two operations, another CPU does "close()", and that causes eventpoll_release_file() to be called, and now f_count goes down to zero while ->poll() is running. So you do need to increment the file count around the ->poll() call, I feel. Or, alternatively, you'd need to serialize with eventpoll_release_file(), but that would need to be some sleeping lock held over the ->poll() call. > As it is, dma_buf ->poll() is very suspicious regardless of that > mess - it can grab reference to file for unspecified interval. I think that's actually much preferable to what epoll does, which is to keep using files without having reference counts to them (and then relying on magically not racing with eventpoll_release_file().

I really think that *poll* itself is doing everything right. It knows that it's called with a file pointer with a reference, and it adds its own references as needed. And I think that's all fine - both for dmabuf in particular, but for poll in general. That's how things are *supposed* to work. You can keep references to other things in your 'struct file *', knowing that files are properly refcounted, and won't go away while you are dealing with them. The problem, of course, is that then epoll violates that "called with reference" part. epoll very much by design does *not* take references to the files it keeps track of, and then tears them down at close() time. Now, epoll has its reasons for doing that. They are even good reasons. But that does mean that when epoll needs to deal with that hackery. I wish we could remove epoll entirely, but that isn't an option, so we need to just make sure that when it accesses the ffd.file pointer, it does so more carefully. Linus

Note that select's __pollwait() does *NOT* leave a reference at the mercy of driver - it's stuck into poll_table_entry->filp and the poll_freewait() knows how to take those out. dmabuf does something very different - it grabs the damn thing into its private data structures and for all we know it could keep it for a few hours, until some even materializes.

Because > using get_file() there looks clearly unsafe... If you're in ->poll() you're holding the epoll mutex and eventpoll_release_file() needs to acquire ep->mtx as well. So if you're in ->poll() then you know that eventpoll_release_file() can't progress and therefore eventpoll_release() can't make progress. So f_op->release() won't be able to be called as it happens after eventpoll_release() in __fput(). But f_count being able to go to zero is expected.

Yes, exactly. epoll() ends up actually wanting the lifetime of the ep item be the lifetime of the file _descriptor_, not the lifetime of the file itself. We approximate that - badly - with epoll not taking a reference on the file pointer, and then at final fput() it tears things down. But that has two real issues, and one of them is that "oh, now epoll has file pointers that are actually dead" that caused this thread. The other issue is that "approximates" thing, where it means that duplicating the file pointer (dup*() and fork() end unix socket file sending etc) will not mean that the epoll ref is also out of sync with the lifetime of the file descriptor. That's why I suggested that "clean up epoll references at file_close_fd() time instead: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wj6XL9MGCd_nUzRj6SaKeN0TsyTTZDFpGdW34R+zMZaSg@mail.gmail.com/ because it would actually really *fix* the lifetime issue of ep items. In the process, it would make it possible to actually take a f_count reference at EPOLL_CTL_ADD time, since now the lifetime of the EP wouldn't be tied to the lifetime of the 'struct file *' pointer, it would be properly tied to the lifetime of the actual file descriptor that you are adding. So it would be a huge conceptual cleanup too. (Of course - at that point EPOLL_CTL_ADD still doesn't actually _need_ a reference to the file, since the file being open in itself is already that reference - but the point here being that there would *be* a reference that the epoll code would effectively have, and you'd never be in the situation we were in where there would be stale "dead" file pointers that just haven't gone through the cleanup yet). But I'd rather not touch the epoll code more than I have to. Which is why I applied the minimal patch for just "refcount over vfs_poll()", and am just mentioning my suggestion in the hope that some eager beaver would like to see how painful it would do to make the bigger surgery...
