vsock: Fix memory leak in vsock_connect()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
An O_NONBLOCK vsock_connect() request may try to reschedule
@connect_work.  Imagine the following sequence of vsock_connect()
requests:

  1. The 1st, non-blocking request schedules @connect_work, which will
     expire after 200 jiffies.  Socket state is now SS_CONNECTING;

  2. Later, the 2nd, blocking request gets interrupted by a signal after
     a few jiffies while waiting for the connection to be established.
     Socket state is back to SS_UNCONNECTED, but @connect_work is still
     pending, and will expire after 100 jiffies.

  3. Now, the 3rd, non-blocking request tries to schedule @connect_work
     again.  Since @connect_work is already scheduled,
     schedule_delayed_work() silently returns.  sock_hold() is called
     twice, but sock_put() will only be called once in
     vsock_connect_timeout(), causing a memory leak reported by syzbot:

Use mod_delayed_work() instead: if @connect_work is already scheduled,
reschedule it, and undo sock_hold() to keep the reference count
balanced.
