Subject: [PATCH wpan] mac802154: fix llsec key resources release in mac802154_llsec_key_del

mac802154_llsec_key_del() can free resources of a key directly without
following the RCU rules for waiting before the end of a grace period. This
may lead to use-after-free in case llsec_lookup_key() is traversing the
list of keys in parallel with a key deletion:

refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.

Handle the proper resource release in the RCU callback function
mac802154_llsec_key_del_rcu().

Note that if llsec_lookup_key() finds a key, it gets a refcount via
llsec_key_get() and locally copies key id from key_entry (which is a
list element). So it's safe to call llsec_key_put() and free the list
entry after the RCU grace period elapses.

Should the patch be targeted to "net" tree directly?

I don't think this kfree is right, "struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry"
is declared as "non pointer" in "struct mac802154_llsec_key". The
memory that is part of "struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry" should be
freed when llsec_key_put(), llsec_key_release() hits.

Or is there something I am missing here?

Thanks.

Otherwise the patch looks correct to me.

`struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry` is not included into any other
struct. It is a standalone entity describing an entry in the
`ieee802154_llsec_table.keys` list.

Maybe you are confusing it with `struct ieee802154_llsec_key`?

When mac802154_llsec_key_add() is called, `struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry`
objects are allocated using kzalloc() and are linked into the list.

`struct mac802154_llsec_key` object is allocated only if it has not
been allocated yet for some other llsec_key_id, otherwise its refcount
is incremented. Its lifecycle is managed with llsec_key_{get|put}
primitives. A pointer to this object is passed into
`struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry`.

So the only way to reach `struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry` objects is
through the list they belong to and they should be freed when they are
unlinked from the list.

E.g. see mac802154_llsec_destroy() where for &sec->table.keys this
sequence of llsec_key_put() for mkey and kfree_sensitive() for list entry
is done.
