    SUNRPC: ensure the matching upcall is in-flight upon downcall · b18cba09
    minoura makoto authored
    Commit 9130b8db ("SUNRPC: allow for upcalls for the same uid
    but different gss service") introduced `auth` argument to
    __gss_find_upcall(), but in gss_pipe_downcall() it was left as NULL
    since it (and auth->service) was not (yet) determined.
    
    When multiple upcalls with the same uid and different service are
    ongoing, it could happen that __gss_find_upcall(), which returns the
    first match found in the pipe->in_downcall list, could not find the
    correct gss_msg corresponding to the downcall we are looking for.
    Moreover, it might return a msg which is not sent to rpc.gssd yet.
    
    We could see mount.nfs process hung in D state with multiple mount.nfs
    are executed in parallel.  The call trace below is of CentOS 7.9
    kernel-3.10.0-1160.24.1.el7.x86_64 but we observed the same hang w/
    elrepo kernel-ml-6.0.7-1.el7.

    The scenario is like this. Let's say there are two upcalls for
    services A and B, A -> B in pipe->in_downcall, B -> A in pipe->pipe.
    
    When rpc.gssd reads pipe to get the upcall msg corresponding to
    service B from pipe->pipe and then writes the response, in
    gss_pipe_downcall the msg corresponding to service A will be picked
    because only uid is used to find the msg and it is before the one for
    B in pipe->in_downcall.  And the process waiting for the msg
    corresponding to service A will be woken up.
    
    Actual scheduing of that process might be after rpc.gssd processes the
    next msg.  In rpc_pipe_generic_upcall it clears msg->errno (for A).
    The process is scheduled to see gss_msg->ctx == NULL and
    gss_msg->msg.errno == 0, therefore it cannot break the loop in
    gss_create_upcall and is never woken up after that.
    
    This patch adds a simple check to ensure that a msg which is not
    sent to rpc.gssd yet is not chosen as the matching upcall upon
    receiving a downcall.
