[ Upstream commit 1b3ec4f7c03d4b07bad70697d7e2f4088d2cfe92 ]

Light Hsieh reported a KASAN UAF warning in trace_posix_lock_inode().
The request pointer had been changed earlier to point to a lock entry
that was added to the inode's list. However, before the tracepoint could
fire, another task raced in and freed that lock.

Fix this by moving the tracepoint inside the spinlock, which should
ensure that this doesn't happen.

[ Upstream commit 74f6f5912693ce454384eaeec48705646a21c74f ]

As following backtrace, the struct file_lock request , in posix_lock_inode
is free before ftrace function using.
Replace the ftrace function ahead free flow could fix the use-after-free
issue.

[ Upstream commit dcf23ac3e846ca0cf626c155a0e3fcbbcf4fae8a ]

There is measurable performance impact in some synthetic tests due to
commit 6d390e4b5d48 (locks: fix a potential use-after-free problem when
wakeup a waiter). Fix the race condition instead by clearing the
fl_blocker pointer after the wake_up, using explicit acquire/release
semantics.

This does mean that we can no longer use the clearing of fl_blocker as
the wait condition, so switch the waiters over to checking whether the
fl_blocked_member list_head is empty.

'16306a61d3b7 ("fs/locks: always delete_block after waiting.")' add the

trigger a UAF when we try to wakeup some waiter：

Thread 1 has create a write flock a on file, and now thread 2 try to
unlock and delete flock a, thread 3 try to add flock b on the same file.

    locks_delete_lock_ctx

   - Add a new knfsd file cache, so that we don't have to open and close
     on each (NFSv2/v3) READ or WRITE. This can speed up read and write
     in some cases. It also replaces our readahead cache.

   - Prevent silent data loss on write errors, by treating write errors
     like server reboots for the purposes of write caching, thus forcing
     clients to resend their writes.

   - Tweak the code that allocates sessions to be more forgiving, so
     that NFSv4.1 mounts are less likely to hang when a server already
     has a lot of clients.

   - Eliminate an arbitrary limit on NFSv4 ACL sizes; they should now be
     limited only by the backend filesystem and the maximum RPC size.

   - Allow the server to enforce use of the correct kerberos credentials
     when a client reclaims state after a reboot.

  And some miscellaneous smaller bugfixes and cleanup"

In __break_lease(), the file lock 'new_fl' is allocated in lease_alloc().
However, it is not deallocated in the following execution if
smp_load_acquire() fails, leading to a memory leak bug. To fix this issue,
free 'new_fl' before returning the error.

Have them keep an nfsd_file reference instead of a struct file.

<title>locks: create a new notifier chain for lease attempts</title>

With the new file caching infrastructure in nfsd, we can end up holding
files open for an indefinite period of time, even when they are still
idle. This may prevent the kernel from handing out leases on the file,
which is something we don't want to block.

Fix this by running a SRCU notifier call chain whenever on any
lease attempt. nfsd can then purge the cache for that inode before
returning.

Since SRCU is only conditionally compiled in, we must only define the
new chain if it's enabled, and users of the chain must ensure that
SRCU is enabled.

<title>locks: Fix procfs output for file leases</title>

Since commit 778fc546f749c588aa2f ("locks: fix tracking of inprogress
lease breaks"), leases break don't change @fl_type but modifies
@fl_flags. However, procfs's part haven't been updated.

Previously, for a breaking lease the target type was printed (see
target_leasetype()), as returns fcntl(F_GETLEASE). But now it's always
"READ", as F_UNLCK no longer means "breaking". Unlike the previous
one, this behaviour don't provide a complete description of the lease.

There are /proc/pid/fdinfo/ outputs for a lease (the same for READ and
WRITE) breaked by O_WRONLY.
-- before:
lock:   1: LEASE  BREAKING  READ  2558 08:03:815793 0 EOF
-- after:
lock:   1: LEASE  BREAKING  UNLCK  2558 08:03:815793 0 EOF
