[Qemu-stable] [PATCH 30/67] qht: fix unlock-after-free segfault upon res


From: Michael Roth
Subject: [Qemu-stable] [PATCH 30/67] qht: fix unlock-after-free segfault upon resizing
Date: Wed, 14 Dec 2016 18:44:24 -0600

From: "Emilio G. Cota" <address@hidden>

The old map's bucket locks are being unlocked *after*
that same old map has been passed to RCU for destruction.
This is a bug that can cause a segfault, since there's
no guarantee that the deletion will be deferred (e.g.
there may be no concurrent readers).

The segfault is easily triggered in RHEL6/CentOS6 with qht-test,
particularly on a single-core system or by pinning qht-test
to a single core.

Fix it by unlocking the map's bucket locks right after having
published the new map, and (crucially) before marking the map
for deletion via call_rcu().

While at it, expand qht_do_resize() to atomically do (1) a reset,
(2) a resize, or (3) a reset+resize. This simplifies the calling
code, since the new function (qht_do_resize_reset()) acquires
and releases the buckets' locks.

Note that no qht_do_reset inline is provided, since it would have
no users--qht_reset() already performs a reset without taking
ht->lock.
