From 040757f738e13caaa9c5078bca79aa97e11dde88 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Sun, 5 Mar 2017 15:03:22 -0600 Subject: ucount: Remove the atomicity from ucount->count Always increment/decrement ucount->count under the ucounts_lock. The increments are there already and moving the decrements there means the locking logic of the code is simpler. This simplification in the locking logic fixes a race between put_ucounts and get_ucounts that could result in a use-after-free because the count could go zero then be found by get_ucounts and then be freed by put_ucounts. A bug presumably this one was found by a combination of syzkaller and KASAN. JongWhan Kim reported the syzkaller failure and Dmitry Vyukov spotted the race in the code.
