[BUG] stable v3.10.16+ introduced by "ip6tnl: allow to use rtnl ops on fb tunnel"

[Steven Rostedt]

In our test labs we discovered a bug with the latest 3.10-rt kernel.
When investigating, I found that it was actually a bug in the 3.10.18
kernel that we based on. With that, I bisected it down to this commit:

commit 506cdb8909a1a739c7585c680c6bd4b3d1247564
Author: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas...@6wind.com>

ip6tnl: allow to use rtnl ops on fb tunnel

[ Upstream commit bb8140947a247b9aa15652cc24dc555ebb0b64b0 ]

rtnl ops where introduced by c075b13098b3 ("ip6tnl: advertise tunnel param
rtnl"), but I forget to assign rtnl ops to fb tunnels.

Now that it is done, we must remove the explicit call to
unregister_netdevice_queue(), because the fallback tunnel is added to the
in ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels() when checking rtnl_link_ops of all netdevices
is valid since commit 0bd8762824e7 ("ip6tnl: add x-netns support")).


The bug we see is caused by simply loading and unloading the ip6_tunnel
module.

modprobe ip6_tunnel; rmmod ip6_tunnel

Which causes the following oops:

0xf51 is in ip6_tnl_exit_net (/home/rostedt/work/git/linux-trace.git/net/ipv6/ip6_tunnel.c:1715).

1717 }
1718
1719 static int __net_init ip6_tnl_init_net(struct net *net)

Thus, this got called with ip6n->tnsl_wc[0] as NULL.

I ran the following trace command on this:

# modprobe ip6_tunnel
# trace-cmd start -p function_graph -g SyS_delete_module
# rmmod ip6_tunnel

and traced the flow of functions that lead up to the crash: Full dump
can be found here: http://rostedt.homelinux.com/private/ip6_tunnel.trace


ip6_tnl_dev_uninit() which is called by rollback_registered_many() sets
tnls_wc[0] to NULL. Later unregistered_pernet_device() gets called,
which eventually calls ip6_tnl_exit_net() which references the
tnls_wc[0] unconditionally. This looks to be where the bug happens.

Finally, after digging through all this, I looked at the original
commit that was backported to 3.10 and noticed that the backport
doesn't include the entire change. It also has:

+++ b/net/ipv6/ip6_tunnel.c
@@ -1731,8 +1731,6 @@ static void __net_exit ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels(struct ip

unregister_netdevice_many(&list);
}


Which, when applied to 3.10.18, fixes the bug. Was there a reason that
this part of the commit wasn't backported? or was this just an oversight?

Bug has been introduced by commit bb8140947a24 ("ip6tnl: allow to use rtnl ops
on fb tunnel").

When ip6_tunnel.ko is unloaded, FB device is delete by rtnl_link_unregister()
and then we try to use the pointer in ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels().

Let's add an handler for dellink, which will never remove the FB tunnel. With
this patch it will no more be possible to remove it via 'ip link del ip6tnl0',
but it's safer.

The same fix was already proposed by Willem de Bruijn <wil...@google.com> for
sit interfaces.

Also ran a test similar to the one for sit: `modprobe ip6_tunnel;
rmmod ip6_tunnel` with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y. This exposed the bug at
HEAD, completes successfully with the patch applied.

I'm not sure my fix up was the right thing to do. I believe upstream
commit 1e9f3d6f1c403 "ip6tnl: fix use after free of fb_tnl_dev" which
was ported back to 3.12 stable, is the correct fix.

I even backported that commit to 3.10 and tested it, and the bug did
indeed go away.

The original patch submitted told me to leave this part of the patch
out of the backport, explaining that it wasn't necessary in older
kernels.

Can someone please sort this out?

Nicolas please provide some guidance here, thanks.

Yes, and this was right (in upstream commit, I remove this part because
the fb device is deleted by the loop which check dev->rtnl_ops) , but ...

The original patch left a bug, which was fixed upstream with this commit:
1e9f3d6f1c40 ip6tnl: fix use after free of fb_tnl_dev

The problem is a bit different in 3.10.y, because there is no x-vrf support.
When ip6_tunnel.ko is unloaded, FB device is deleted by rtnl_link_unregister()
and then we try to delete it again in ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels().
Thus the fix is different and in fact, the above patch is good.

Steven, will you submit this patch properly or should I do this?

Nicolas please submit the change, thanks.

[Nicolas Dichtel]

The upstream commit bb8140947a24 ("ip6tnl: allow to use rtnl ops on fb tunnel")
(backported into linux-3.10.y) left a bug which was fixed upstream by commit
1e9f3d6f1c40 ("ip6tnl: fix use after free of fb_tnl_dev").

The problem is a bit different in linux-3.10.y, because there is no x-netns
support (upstream commit 0bd8762824e7 ("ip6tnl: add x-netns support")).

When ip6_tunnel.ko is unloaded, FB device is deleted by rtnl_link_unregister()
and then we try to delete it again in ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels().

This patch removes the second deletion.
