When a peer MEP is being deleted, cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called
on ccm_rx_dwork before freeing. However, br_cfm_frame_rx() runs in
softirq context under rcu_read_lock (without RTNL) and can re-schedule
ccm_rx_dwork via ccm_rx_timer_start() between cancel_delayed_work_sync()
returning and kfree_rcu() being called.
The following is a simple race scenario:
cpu0 cpu1
mep_delete_implementation()
cancel_delayed_work_sync(ccm_rx_dwork);
br_cfm_frame_rx()
// peer_mep still in hlist
if (peer_mep->ccm_defect)
ccm_rx_timer_start()
queue_delayed_work(ccm_rx_dwork)
hlist_del_rcu(&peer_mep->head);
kfree_rcu(peer_mep, rcu);
ccm_rx_work_expired()
// on freed peer_mep
To prevent this, cancel_delayed_work_sync() is replaced with
disable_delayed_work_sync() in both peer MEP deletion paths, so
that subsequent queue_delayed_work() calls from br_cfm_frame_rx()
are silently rejected.
The cc_peer_disable() helper retains cancel_delayed_work_sync()
because it is also used for the CC enable/disable toggle path where
the work must remain re-schedulable.
Fixes: dc32cbb3dbd7 ("bridge: cfm: Kernel space implementation of CFM. CCM
frame RX added.")
