In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm cache policy smq: fix missing locks in invalidating cache blocks
In passthrough mode, the policy invalidate mapping operation is called
simultaneously from multiple workers, thus it should be protected by a
lock. Otherwise, we might end up with data races on the allocated blocks
counter, or even use-after-free issues with internal data structures
when doing concurrent writes.
Note that the existing FIXME in smq invalidate mapping() doesn't affect
passthrough mode since migration tasks don't exist there, but would need
attention if supporting fast device shrinking via suspend/resume without
target reloading.
Reproduce steps:
- Create a cache device consisting of 1024 cache entries
dmsetup create cmeta --table "0 8192 linear /dev/sdc 0"
dmsetup create cdata --table "0 131072 linear /dev/sdc 8192"
dmsetup create corig --table "0 262144 linear /dev/sdc 262144"
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/cmeta bs=4k count=1 oflag=direct
dmsetup create cache --table "0 262144 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta
/dev/mapper/cdata /dev/mapper/corig 128 2 metadata2 writethrough smq 0"
- Populate the cache, and record the number of cached blocks
fio --name=populate --filename=/dev/mapper/cache --rw=randwrite --bs=4k
--size=64m --direct=1
nr cached=$(dmsetup status cache | awk '{split($7, a, "/"); print a[1]}')
- Reload the cache into passthrough mode
dmsetup suspend cache
dmsetup reload cache --table "0 262144 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta
/dev/mapper/cdata /dev/mapper/corig 128 2 metadata2 passthrough smq 0"
dmsetup resume cache
- Write to the passthrough cache. By setting multiple jobs with I/O size equal to the cache block size, cache blocks are invalidated concurrently from different workers.
fio --filename=/dev/mapper/cache --name=test --rw=randwrite --bs=64k
--direct=1 --numjobs=2 --randrepeat=0 --size=64m
- Check if demoted matches cached block count. These numbers should match but may differ due to the data race.
nr demoted=$(dmsetup status cache | awk '{print $12}')
echo "$nr cached, $nr demoted"
