[Bridge] [syzbot] [net?] unregister_netdevice: waiting for DEV to become free (8)
Hi all, I'm taking a look at this bug as part of the exercice for the Linux Kernel Bug Fixing Summer 2023 program. Thanks to the help from my mentor, Ivan Orlov and Shuah Khan, I've already obtained a reproduction of the issue using the provided C reproducer, and I should be able to submit a patch by the end of this week to fix the highlighted error. If you have any information or suggestions, please feel free to reply to this thread. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Best regards, Ziqi

[Bridge] [PATCH] net: bridge: Fix refcnt issues in dev_ioctl
In the bug reported by Syzbot, certain bridge devices would have a
leaked reference created by race conditions in dev_ioctl, specifically,
under SIOCBRADDIF or SIOCBRDELIF operations. The reference leak would
be shown in the periodic unregister_netdevice call, which throws a
warning and cause Syzbot to report a crash. Upon inspection of the
logic in dev_ioctl, it seems the reference was introduced to ensure
proper access to the bridge device after rtnl_unlock. and the latter
function is necessary to maintain the following lock order in any
bridge related ioctl calls:
1) br_ioctl_mutex => 2) rtnl_lock
Conceptually, though, br_ioctl_mutex could be considered more specific
than rtnl_lock given their usages, hence swapping their order would be
a reasonable proposal. This patch changes all related call sites to
maintain the reversed order of the two locks:
1) rtnl_lock => 2) br_ioctl_mutex
By doing so, the extra reference introduced in dev_ioctl is no longer
needed, and hence the reference leak bug is now resolved.
