Charan Teja Reddy ef8133b1b4 dmabuf: fix use-after-free of dmabuf's file->f_inode
commit 05cd84691eafcd7959a1e120d5e72c0dd98c5d91 upstream.

It is observed 'use-after-free' on the dmabuf's file->f_inode with the
race between closing the dmabuf file and reading the dmabuf's debug
info.

Consider the below scenario where P1 is closing the dma_buf file
and P2 is reading the dma_buf's debug info in the system:

P1						P2
					dma_buf_debug_show()
dma_buf_put()
  __fput()
    file->f_op->release()
    dput()
    ....
      dentry_unlink_inode()
        iput(dentry->d_inode)
        (where the inode is freed)
					mutex_lock(&db_list.lock)
					read 'dma_buf->file->f_inode'
					(the same inode is freed by P1)
					mutex_unlock(&db_list.lock)
      dentry->d_op->d_release()-->
        dma_buf_release()
          .....
          mutex_lock(&db_list.lock)
          removes the dmabuf from the list
          mutex_unlock(&db_list.lock)

In the above scenario, when dma_buf_put() is called on a dma_buf, it
first frees the dma_buf's file->f_inode(=dentry->d_inode) and then
removes this dma_buf from the system db_list. In between P2 traversing
the db_list tries to access this dma_buf's file->f_inode that was freed
by P1 which is a use-after-free case.

Since, __fput() calls f_op->release first and then later calls the
d_op->d_release, move the dma_buf's db_list removal from d_release() to
f_op->release(). This ensures that dma_buf's file->f_inode is not
accessed after it is released.

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.
