ice: Fix use after free during unload with ports in bridge
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Unloading the ice driver while switchdev port representors are added to
a bridge can lead to kernel panic. Reproducer:

  modprobe ice

  devlink dev eswitch set $PF1_PCI mode switchdev

  ip link add $BR type bridge
  ip link set $BR up

  echo 2 > /sys/class/net/$PF1/device/sriov_numvfs
  sleep 2

  ip link set $PF1 master $BR
  ip link set $VF1_PR master $BR
  ip link set $VF2_PR master $BR
  ip link set $PF1 up
  ip link set $VF1_PR up
  ip link set $VF2_PR up
  ip link set $VF1 up

  rmmod irdma ice

When unloading the driver, ice_eswitch_detach() is eventually called as
part of VF freeing. First, it removes a port representor from xarray,
then unregister_netdev() is called (via repr->ops.rem()), finally
representor is deallocated. The problem comes from the bridge doing its
own deinit at the same time. unregister_netdev() triggers a notifier
chain, resulting in ice_eswitch_br_port_deinit() being called. It should
set repr->br_port = NULL, but this does not happen since repr has
already been removed from xarray and is not found. Regardless, it
finishes up deallocating br_port. At this point, repr is still not freed
and an fdb event can happen, in which ice_eswitch_br_fdb_event_work()
takes repr->br_port and tries to use it, which causes a panic (use after
free).

Note that this only happens with 2 or more port representors added to
the bridge, since with only one representor port, the bridge deinit is
slightly different (ice_eswitch_br_port_deinit() is called via
ice_eswitch_br_ports_flush(), not ice_eswitch_br_port_unlink()).

A workaround is available: brctl setageing $BR 0, which stops the bridge
from adding fdb entries altogether.

Change the order of operations in ice_eswitch_detach(): move the call to
unregister_netdev() before removing repr from xarray. This way
repr->br_port will be correctly set to NULL in
ice_eswitch_br_port_deinit(), preventing a panic.
