From 17ac99b2b8d08ed40f4525491d6eff330329a6d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Elena Reshetova Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2017 10:23:39 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] drivers, net, mlx4: convert mlx4_srq.refcount from atomic_t to refcount_t atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable mlx4_srq.refcount is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. Suggested-by: Kees Cook Reviewed-by: David Windsor Reviewed-by: Hans Liljestrand Signed-off-by: Elena Reshetova Signed-off-by: David S.
