      USB: Fix breakage in ffs_fs_mount() · 2606b28a
      Al Viro 提交于
      	There's a bunch of failure exits in ffs_fs_mount() with
      seriously broken recovery logics.  Most of that appears to stem
      from misunderstanding of the ->kill_sb() semantics; unlike
      ->put_super() it is called for *all* superblocks of given type,
      no matter how (in)complete the setup had been.  ->put_super()
      is called only if ->s_root is not NULL; any failure prior to
      setting ->s_root will have the call of ->put_super() skipped.
      ->kill_sb(), OTOH, awaits every superblock that has come from
      sget().
      
      Current behaviour of ffs_fs_mount():
      
      We have struct ffs_sb_fill_data data on stack there.  We do
      	ffs_dev = functionfs_acquire_dev_callback(dev_name);
      and store that in data.private_data.  Then we call mount_nodev(),
      passing it ffs_sb_fill() as a callback.  That will either fail
      outright, or manage to call ffs_sb_fill().  There we allocate an
      instance of struct ffs_data, slap the value of ffs_dev (picked
      from data.private_data) into ffs->private_data and overwrite
      data.private_data by storing ffs into an overlapping member
      (data.ffs_data).  Then we store ffs into sb->s_fs_info and attempt
      to set the rest of the things up (root inode, root dentry, then
      create /ep0 there).  Any of those might fail.  Should that
      happen, we get ffs_fs_kill_sb() called before mount_nodev()
      returns.  If mount_nodev() fails for any reason whatsoever,
      we proceed to
      	functionfs_release_dev_callback(data.ffs_data);
      
      That's broken in a lot of ways.  Suppose the thing has failed in
      allocation of e.g. root inode or dentry.  We have
      	functionfs_release_dev_callback(ffs);
      	ffs_data_put(ffs);
      done by ffs_fs_kill_sb() (ffs accessed via sb->s_fs_info), followed by
      	functionfs_release_dev_callback(ffs);
      from ffs_fs_mount() (via data.ffs_data).  Note that the second
      functionfs_release_dev_callback() has every chance to be done to freed memory.
      
      Suppose we fail *before* root inode allocation.  What happens then?
      ffs_fs_kill_sb() doesn't do anything to ffs (it's either not called at all,
      or it doesn't have a pointer to ffs stored in sb->s_fs_info).  And
      	functionfs_release_dev_callback(data.ffs_data);
      is called by ffs_fs_mount(), but here we are in nasal daemon country - we
      are reading from a member of union we'd never stored into.  In practice,
      we'll get what we used to store into the overlapping field, i.e. ffs_dev.
      And then we get screwed, since we treat it (struct gfs_ffs_obj * in
      disguise, returned by functionfs_acquire_dev_callback()) as struct
      ffs_data *, pick what would've been ffs_data ->private_data from it
      (*well* past the actual end of the struct gfs_ffs_obj - struct ffs_data
      is much bigger) and poke in whatever it points to.
      
      FWIW, there's a minor leak on top of all that in case if ffs_sb_fill()
      fails on kstrdup() - ffs is obviously forgotten.
      
      The thing is, there is no point in playing all those games with union.
      Just allocate and initialize ffs_data *before* calling mount_nodev() and
      pass a pointer to it via data.ffs_data.  And once it's stored in
      sb->s_fs_info, clear data.ffs_data, so that ffs_fs_mount() knows that
      it doesn't need to kill the sucker manually - from that point on
      we'll have it done by ->kill_sb().
