From 552f0329c75b3e1d7f9bb8c9e421d37403f192cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Filipe Manana Date: Mon, 19 Nov 2018 16:20:34 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: fix race between enabling quotas and subvolume creation We have a race between enabling quotas end subvolume creation that cause subvolume creation to fail with -EINVAL, and the following diagram shows how it happens: CPU 0 CPU 1 btrfs_ioctl() btrfs_ioctl_quota_ctl() btrfs_quota_enable() mutex_lock(fs_info->qgroup_ioctl_lock) btrfs_ioctl() create_subvol() btrfs_qgroup_inherit() -> save fs_info->quota_root into quota_root -> stores a NULL value -> tries to lock the mutex qgroup_ioctl_lock -> blocks waiting for the task at CPU0 -> sets BTRFS_FS_QUOTA_ENABLED in fs_info -> sets quota_root in fs_info->quota_root (non-NULL value) mutex_unlock(fs_info->qgroup_ioctl_lock) -> checks quota enabled flag is set -> returns -EINVAL because fs_info->quota_root was NULL before it acquired the mutex qgroup_ioctl_lock -> ioctl returns -EINVAL Returning -EINVAL to user space will be confusing if all the arguments passed to the subvolume creation ioctl were valid. Fix it by grabbing the value from fs_info->quota_root after acquiring the mutex.
