We can simplify the code gracefully with new guard() macro and co for
automatic cleanup of locks.

Only the code refactoring, and no functional changes.

There are lots of places doing assignments in if condition in ALSA
sequencer core, which is a bad coding style that may confuse readers
and occasionally lead to bugs.

This patch is merely for coding-style fixes, no functional changes.

The input pool of a client might be deleted via the resize ioctl, the
the access to it should be covered by the proper locks.  Currently the
only missing place is the call in snd_seq_ioctl_get_client_pool(), and
this patch papers over it.

spin_lock_irqsave() is used unnecessarily in various places in
sequencer core code although it's pretty obvious that the context is
sleepable.  Remove irqsave and use the plain spin_lock_irq() in such
places for simplicity.

<id>4b24b960b10b6a4e30beba3ce097fa867b4a085f</id>
<content type='text'>
In a few places in sequencer core, we temporarily unlock / re-lock the
pool spin lock while waiting for the allocation in the blocking mode.
There spin_unlock_irq() / spin_lock_irq() pairs are called while
initially spin_lock_irqsave() is used (and spin_lock_irqrestore() at
the end of the function again).  This is likely OK for now, but it's a
bit confusing and error-prone.

This patch replaces these temporary relocking lines with the irqsave
variant to make the lock/unlock sequence more consistently.

<title>ALSA: seq: More protection for concurrent write and ioctl races</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch is an attempt for further hardening against races between
the concurrent write and ioctls.  The previous fix d15d662e89fc
("ALSA: seq: Fix racy pool initializations") covered the race of the
pool initialization at writer and the pool resize ioctl by the
client-&gt;ioctl_mutex (CVE-2018-1000004).  However, basically this mutex
should be applied more widely to the whole write operation for
avoiding the unexpected pool operations by another thread.

The only change outside snd_seq_write() is the additional mutex
argument to helper functions, so that we can unlock / relock the given
mutex temporarily during schedule() call for blocking write.

Rename:

	wait_queue_t		=&gt;	wait_queue_entry_t

'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue",
but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head,
which had to carry the name.

Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'.

This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to
lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry',
which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

<content type='text'>
When a new event is queued while processing to resize the FIFO in
snd_seq_fifo_clear(), it may lead to a use-after-free, as the old pool
that is being queued gets removed.  For avoiding this race, we need to
close the pool to be deleted and sync its usage before actually
deleting it.

The issue was spotted by syzkaller.

When snd_seq_pool_done() is called, it marks the closing flag to
refuse the further cell insertions.  But snd_seq_pool_done() itself
doesn't clear the cells but just waits until all cells are cleared by
the caller side.  That is, it's racy, and this leads to the endless
stall as syzkaller spotted.

This patch addresses the racy by splitting the setup of pool-&gt;closing
flag out of snd_seq_pool_done(), and calling it properly before
snd_seq_pool_done().
