Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] use-after-free in svc_process_common()

nfsv41+ clients are still not properly net-namespace-filied.

OpenVz got report on crash in svc_process_common()
abd founf that bc_svc_process() cannot use serv->sv_bc_xprt as a pointer.

serv is global structure, but sv_bc_xprt is assigned per-netnamespace.
If nfsv41+ shares (with the same minorversion) are mounted in several containers together
then bc_svc_process() can use wrong backchannel or even access freed memory.

OpenVz got report on crash svc_process_common(),
and after careful investigations Evgenii Shatokhin have found its reproducer.
Then I've reproduced the problem on last mainline kernel.

In described scenario you need to have:
- nodeA: VM with 2 interfaces and debug kernel with enabled KASAN.
- nodeB: any other node
- NFS-SRV: NFSv41+ server (4.2 is used in exaple below)

1) nodeA: mount nfsv41+ share
# mount -t nfs4 -o vers=4.2 NFS-SRV:/export/ /mnt/ns1
VvS: here serv->sv_bc_xprt is assigned first time,
in xs_tcp_bc_up() it is assigned to svc_xprt of mount's backchannel

2) nodeA: create net namespace, and mount the same (or any other) NFSv41+ share
# ip netns add second
# ip link set ens2 netns second
# ip netns exec second bash
(inside netns second) # dhclient ens2
VvS: now nets got access to external network
(inside netns second) # mount -t nfs4 -o vers=4.2 NFS-SRV:/export/ /mnt/ns2
VvS: now serv->sv_bc_xprt is overwritten by reference to svc_xprt of new mount's backchannel
NB: you can mount any other NFS share but minorversion must be the same.
NB2: if hardware allows you can use rdma transport here
NB3: you can access nothing in mounted share, problem's trigger was enabled already.

3) NodeA, destroy mount inside netns and then netns itself.

(inside netns second) # umount /mnt/ns2
(inside netns second) # ip link set ens2 netns 1
(inside netns second) # exit
VvS: return to init_net
# ip netns del second
VvS: now second NFS mount and second net namespace was destroyed.

4) Node A: prepare backchannel event
# echo test1 > /mnt/ns1/test1.txt
# echo test2 > /mnt/ns1/test2.txt
# python
>>> fl=open('/mnt/ns1/test1.txt','r')
>>>

4) Node B: replace file open by NodeA
# mount -t nfs -o vers=4.2 NFS-SRV:/export/ /mnt/
# mv /mnt/test2.txt /mnt/test1.txt

===> KASAN on nodeA detect an access to already freed memory.
(see dmesg example in attach of v1 patch version)

svc_process_common()
/* Setup reply header */
rqstp->rq_xprt->xpt_ops->xpo_prep_reply_hdr(rqstp); <<< HERE

svc_process_common() uses already freed rqstp->rq_xprt,
it was assigned in bc_svc_process() where it was taken from serv->sv_bc_xprt.

serv->sv_bc_xprt cannot be used as a pointer,
it can be assigned per net-namespace, either in svc_bc_tcp_create()
or in xprt_rdma_bc_up().
(Hopefully both transports cannot be used together in the same netns)

To fix this problem I've added new callback to struct rpc_xprt_ops,
it calls svc_find_xprt with proper name of transport's backchannel.

According to Trond, the whole "let's set up rqstp->rq_xprt
for the back channel" is nothing but a giant hack in order
to work around the fact that svc_process_common() uses it
to find the xpt_ops, and perform a couple of (meaningless
for the back channel) tests of xpt_flags.

Trond proposed to pass in the xpt_ops as a new parameter to
svc_process_common(), and make those xpt_flags tests check
for whether or not rqstp->rq_xprt is actually non-NULL.

It also required to store a pointer to struct net in the
struct svc_rqst so that functions called from inside
svc_process_common() (nfs4_callback_compound(),
svcauth_gss_accept() and some other) can find it.
Some other functions was adopted to handle empty rqstp->rq_xprt

2nd patch replaces sv_bc_xprt pointer to boolean flag,
serv->sv_bc_xprt is used in svc_is_backchannel() too.
Here this filed is used not as pointer but as some mark of
backchannel-compatible svc servers.
I hope it helps to prevent misuse of sv_bc_xprt in future.

3rd and 4th patches are minor cleanup in debug messages.

v2:
- first patch was reworked to satisfy Trond's requirements:
to do not assign rqstp->rq_xprt in svc_process_common() at all,
provide proper xpt_ops reference as a new parameter,
adopt functions potentially called from svc_process_common()
to properly handle rqstp->rq_xprt = NULL case.


Vasily Averin (4):
nfs: use-after-free in svc_process_common()
nfs: remove sv_bc_enabled using in svc_is_backchannel()
nfs: fix debug message in svc_create_xprt()
nfs: minor typo in nfs4_callback_up_net()
