mac80211: mesh: embedd mesh_paths and mpp_paths into ieee80211_if_mesh

2022-01-04T14:11:49+00:00

Syzbot hit NULL deref in rhashtable_free_and_destroy(). The problem was in mesh_paths and mpp_paths being NULL. mesh_pathtbl_init() could fail in case of memory allocation failure, but nobody cared, since ieee80211_mesh_init_sdata() returns void. It led to leaving 2 pointers as NULL. Syzbot has found null deref on exit path, but it could happen anywhere else, because code assumes these pointers are valid. Since all ieee80211_*_setup_sdata functions are void and do not fail, let's embedd mesh_paths and mpp_paths into parent struct to avoid adding error handling on higher levels and follow the pattern of others setup_sdata functions Fixes: 60854fd94573 ("mac80211: mesh: convert path table to rhashtable") Reported-and-tested-by: syzbot+860268315ba86ea6b96b@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Pavel Skripkin Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211230195547.23977-1-paskripkin@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

mac80211: Use linked list instead of rhashtable walk for mesh tables

2019-02-15T12:10:10+00:00

The mesh table code walks over hash tables for two purposes. First of all it's used as part of a netlink dump process, but it is also used for looking up entries to delete using criteria other than the hash key. The second purpose is directly contrary to the design specification of rhashtable walks. It is only meant for use by netlink dumps. This is because rhashtable is resizable and you cannot obtain a stable walk over it during a resize process. In fact mesh's use of rhashtable for dumping is bogus too. Rather than using rhashtable walk's iterator to keep track of the current position, it always converts the current position to an integer which defeats the purpose of the iterator. Therefore this patch converts all uses of rhashtable walk into a simple linked list. This patch also adds a new spin lock to protect the hash table insertion/removal as well as the walk list modifications. In fact the previous code was buggy as the removals can race with each other, potentially resulting in a double-free.
