[PATCH v3] crypto: AF_ALG - remove locking in async callback

Stephan Müller smueller at chronox.de
Fri Nov 10 04:20:55 PST 2017


The code paths protected by the socket-lock do not use or modify the
socket in a non-atomic fashion. The actions pertaining the socket do not
even need to be handled as an atomic operation. Thus, the socket-lock
can be safely ignored.

This fixes a bug regarding scheduling in atomic as the callback function
may be invoked in interrupt context.

In addition, the sock_hold is moved before the AIO encrypt/decrypt
operation to ensure that the socket is always present. This avoids a
tiny race window where the socket is unprotected and yet used by the AIO
operation.

Finally, the release of resources for a crypto operation is moved into a
common function of af_alg_free_resources.

Fixes: d887c52d6ae43 ("crypto: algif_aead - overhaul memory management")
