[ Upstream commit 6343a2120862f7023006c8091ad95c1f16a32077 ]

(Another one for the f_path debacle.)

ltp fcntl33 testcase caused an Oops in selinux_file_send_sigiotask.

The reason is that generic_add_lease() used filp-&gt;f_path.dentry-&gt;inode
while all the others use file_inode().  This makes a difference for files
opened on overlayfs since the former will point to the overlay inode the
latter to the underlying inode.

So generic_add_lease() added the lease to the overlay inode and
generic_delete_lease() removed it from the underlying inode.  When the file
was released the lease remained on the overlay inode's lock list, resulting
in use after free.

<title>locks: fix unlock when fcntl_setlk races with a close</title>

[ Upstream commit 7f3697e24dc3820b10f445a4a7d914fc356012d1 ]

Dmitry reported that he was able to reproduce the WARN_ON_ONCE that
fires in locks_free_lock_context when the flc_posix list isn't empty.

The problem turns out to be that we're basically rebuilding the
file_lock from scratch in fcntl_setlk when we discover that the setlk
has raced with a close. If the l_whence field is SEEK_CUR or SEEK_END,
then we may end up with fl_start and fl_end values that differ from
when the lock was initially set, if the file position or length of the
file has changed in the interim.

Fix this by just reusing the same lock request structure, and simply
override fl_type value with F_UNLCK as appropriate. That ensures that
we really are unlocking the lock that was initially set.

While we're there, make sure that we do pop a WARN_ON_ONCE if the
removal ever fails. Also return -EBADF in this event, since that's
what we would have returned if the close had happened earlier.

commit 52d304eb4eaced9ad04b64ba7cd6ceb5153bbf18 upstream.

commit 0efaa7e82f02fe69c05ad28e905f31fc86e6f08e
  locks: generic_delete_lease doesn't need a file_lock at all

moves the call to fl-&gt;fl_lmops-&gt;lm_change() to a place in the
code where fl might be a non-lease lock.
When that happens, fl_lmops is NULL and an Oops ensures.

So add an extra test to restore correct functioning.

<title>locks: set fl_owner for leases to filp instead of current-&gt;files</title>

Like flock locks, leases are owned by the file description. Now that the
i_have_this_lease check in __break_lease is gone, we don't actually use
the fl_owner for leases for anything. So, it's now safe to set this more
appropriately to the same value as the fl_file.

While we're at it, fix up the comments over the fl_owner_t definition
since they're rather out of date.

Christoph suggests:

   "Add a return value to lm_break so that the lock manager can tell the
    core code "you can delete this lease right now".  That gets rid of
    the games with the timeout which require all kinds of race avoidance
    code in the users."

Do that here and have the nfsd lease break routine use it when it detects
that there was a race between setting up the lease and it being broken.

everywhere. Add a any_leases_conflict helper function as well to

I think that the intent of this code was to ensure that a process won't
deadlock if it has one fd open with a lease on it and then breaks that
lease by opening another fd. In that case it'll treat the __break_lease
call as if it were non-blocking.

This seems wrong -- the process could (for instance) be multithreaded
and managing different fds via different threads. I also don't see any
mention of this limitation in the (somewhat sketchy) documentation.

Remove the check and the non-blocking behavior when i_have_this_lease
is true.

There was only one place where we still could free a file_lock while
holding the i_lock -- lease_modify. Add a new list_head argument to the
lm_change operation, pass in a private list when calling it, and fix
those callers to dispose of the list once the lock has been dropped.
