commit 2da78092dda "block: Fix dev_t minor allocation lifetime"
specifically moved blk_free_devt(dev->devt) call to part_release()
to avoid reallocating device number before the device is fully
shutdown.
However, it can cause use-after-free on gendisk in get_gendisk().
We use md device as example to show the race scenes:
Process1 Worker Process2
md_free
blkdev_open
del_gendisk
add delete_partition_work_fn() to wq
__blkdev_get
get_gendisk
put_disk
disk_release
kfree(disk)
find part from ext_devt_idr
get_disk_and_module(disk)
cause use after free
delete_partition_work_fn
put_device(part)
part_release
remove part from ext_devt_idr
Before <devt, hd_struct pointer> is removed from ext_devt_idr by
delete_partition_work_fn(), we can find the devt and then access
gendisk by hd_struct pointer. But, if we access the gendisk after
it have been freed, it can cause in use-after-freeon gendisk in
get_gendisk().
We fix this by adding a new helper blk_invalidate_devt() in
delete_partition() and del_gendisk(). It replaces hd_struct
pointer in idr with value 'NULL', and deletes the entry from
idr in part_release() as we do now.
Thanks to Jan Kara for providing the solution and more clear comments
for the code.
