That could lead to following list corruption problems: 1) low-level function treats smi_msg as not connected to list handle_one_recv_msg() could end up calling smi_send(), which assumes the msg is not connected to list. For example, the following sequence could corrupt list by doing list_add_tail() for the entry still connected to other list. handle_new_recv_msgs() msg = list_entry(waiting_rcv_msgs) handle_one_recv_msg(msg) handle_ipmb_get_msg_cmd(msg) smi_send(msg) spin_lock(xmit_msgs_lock) list_add_tail(msg) spin_unlock(xmit_msgs_lock) 2) race between multiple handle_new_recv_msgs() instances handle_new_recv_msgs() once releases waiting_rcv_msgs_lock before calling handle_one_recv_msg() then retakes the lock and list_del() it. If others call handle_new_recv_msgs() during the window shown below list_del() will be done twice for the same smi_msg. handle_new_recv_msgs() spin_lock(waiting_rcv_msgs_lock) msg = list_entry(waiting_rcv_msgs) spin_unlock(waiting_rcv_msgs_lock) | | handle_one_recv_msg(msg) | spin_lock(waiting_rcv_msgs_lock) list_del(msg) spin_unlock(waiting_rcv_msgs_lock) Fixes: 7ea0ed2b5be8 ("ipmi: Make the message handler easier to use for SMI interfaces") Signed-off-by: Jun'ichi Nomura [Added a comment to describe why this works.] Signed-off-by: Corey Minyard Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.19 Tested-by: Ye Feng --- diff --git a/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c b/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c index 94fb407d8561..44b1bd6baa38 100644 --- a/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c +++ b/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c @@ -3820,6 +3820,7 @@ static void handle_new_recv_msgs(ipmi_smi_t intf) while (!list_empty(&intf->waiting_rcv_msgs)) { smi_msg = list_entry(intf->waiting_rcv_msgs.next, struct ipmi_smi_msg, link); + list_del(&smi_msg->link); if (!run_to_completion) spin_unlock_irqrestore(&intf->waiting_rcv_msgs_lock, flags); @@ -3829,11 +3830,14 @@ static void handle_new_recv_msgs(ipmi_smi_t intf) if (rv > 0) { /* * To preserve message order, quit if we - * can't handle a message. + * can't handle a message.
