igb: Add lock to avoid data race
commit 6faee3d4ee8be0f0367d0c3d826afb3571b7a5e0 upstream.
The commit c23d92b80e0b ("igb: Teardown SR-IOV before
unregister_netdev()") places the unregister_netdev() call after the
igb_disable_sriov() call to avoid functionality issue.
However, it introduces several race conditions when detaching a device.
For example, when .remove() is called, the below interleaving leads to
use-after-free.
(FREE from device detaching) | (USE from netdev core)
igb_remove | igb_ndo_get_vf_config
igb_disable_sriov | vf >= adapter->vfs_allocated_count?
kfree(adapter->vf_data) |
adapter->vfs_allocated_count = 0 |
| memcpy(... adapter->vf_data[vf]
Moreover, the igb_disable_sriov() also suffers from data race with the
requests from VF driver.
(FREE from device detaching) | (USE from requests)
igb_remove | igb_msix_other
igb_disable_sriov | igb_msg_task
kfree(adapter->vf_data) | vf < adapter->vfs_allocated_count
adapter->vfs_allocated_count = 0 |
To this end, this commit first eliminates the data races from netdev
core by using rtnl_lock (similar to commit 719479230893 ("dpaa2-eth: add
MAC/PHY support through phylink")). And then adds a spinlock to
eliminate races from driver requests. (similar to commit 1e53834ce541
("ixgbe: Add locking to prevent panic when setting sriov_numvfs to zero")
