From d9ecc77193cad25402ff5517fb26fb22b4db0e10 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joanne Koong Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2025 17:30:28 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fuse: fix uring race condition for null dereference of fc There is a race condition leading to a kernel crash from a null dereference when attemping to access fc->lock in fuse_uring_create_queue(). fc may be NULL in the case where another thread is creating the uring in fuse_uring_create() and has set fc->ring but has not yet set ring->fc when fuse_uring_create_queue() reads ring->fc. There is another race condition as well where in fuse_uring_register(), ring->nr_queues may still be 0 and not yet set to the new value when we compare qid against it. This fix sets fc->ring only after ring->fc and ring->nr_queues have been set, which guarantees now that ring->fc is a proper pointer when any queues are created and ring->nr_queues reflects the right number of queues if ring is not NULL. We must use smp_store_release() and smp_load_acquire() semantics to ensure the ordering will remain correct where fc->ring is assigned only after ring->fc and ring->nr_queues have been assigned.
