Jozsef Kadlecsik 427deb5ba5 netfilter: ipset: fix race condition between swap/destroy and kernel side add/del/test
[ Upstream commit 28628fa952fefc7f2072ce6e8016968cc452b1ba ]

Linkui Xiao reported that there's a race condition when ipset swap and destroy is
called, which can lead to crash in add/del/test element operations. Swap then
destroy are usual operations to replace a set with another one in a production
system. The issue can in some cases be reproduced with the script:

ipset create hash_ip1 hash:net family inet hashsize 1024 maxelem 1048576
ipset add hash_ip1 172.20.0.0/16
ipset add hash_ip1 192.168.0.0/16
iptables -A INPUT -m set --match-set hash_ip1 src -j ACCEPT
while [ 1 ]
do
	# ... Ongoing traffic...
        ipset create hash_ip2 hash:net family inet hashsize 1024 maxelem 1048576
        ipset add hash_ip2 172.20.0.0/16
        ipset swap hash_ip1 hash_ip2
        ipset destroy hash_ip2
        sleep 0.05
done

In the race case the possible order of the operations are

	CPU0			CPU1
	ip_set_test
				ipset swap hash_ip1 hash_ip2
				ipset destroy hash_ip2
	hash_net_kadt

Swap replaces hash_ip1 with hash_ip2 and then destroy removes hash_ip2 which
is the original hash_ip1. ip_set_test was called on hash_ip1 and because destroy
removed it, hash_net_kadt crashes.

The fix is to force ip_set_swap() to wait for all readers to finish accessing the
old set pointers by calling synchronize_rcu().

The first version of the patch was written by Linkui Xiao <xiaolinkui@kylinos.cn>.

v2: synchronize_rcu() is moved into ip_set_swap() in order not to burden
    ip_set_destroy() unnecessarily when all sets are destroyed.
v3: Florian Westphal pointed out that all netfilter hooks run with rcu_read_lock() held
    and em_ipset.c wraps the entire ip_set_test() in rcu read lock/unlock pair.
    So there's no need to extend the rcu read locked area in ipset itself.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
