fix serial buffer memory leak 2007-08-11T22:47:41+00:00 Alan Cox alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk 2007-08-10T20:01:05+00:00 42fd552e8647316757ded0176466c41d17934dcf Patch c5c34d4862e18ef07c1276d233507f540fb5a532 (tty: flush flip buffer on ldisc input queue flush) introduces a race condition which can lead to memory leaks. The problem can be triggered when tcflush() is called when data are being pushed to the line discipline driver by flush_to_ldisc(). flush_to_ldisc() releases tty->buf.lock when calling the line discipline receive_buf function. At that poing tty_buffer_flush() kicks in and sets both tty->buf.head and tty->buf.tail to NULL. When flush_to_ldisc() finishes, it restores tty->buf.head but doesn't touch tty->buf.tail. This corrups the buffer queue, and the next call to tty_buffer_request_room() will allocate a new buffer and overwrite tty->buf.head. The previous buffer is then lost forever without being released.

Patch c5c34d4862e18ef07c1276d233507f540fb5a532 (tty: flush flip buffer on
ldisc input queue flush) introduces a race condition which can lead to memory
leaks.

The problem can be triggered when tcflush() is called when data are being
pushed to the line discipline driver by flush_to_ldisc().

flush_to_ldisc() releases tty->buf.lock when calling the line discipline
receive_buf function. At that poing tty_buffer_flush() kicks in and sets both
tty->buf.head and tty->buf.tail to NULL. When flush_to_ldisc() finishes, it
restores tty->buf.head but doesn't touch tty->buf.tail. This corrups the
buffer queue, and the next call to tty_buffer_request_room() will allocate a
new buffer and overwrite tty->buf.head. The previous buffer is then lost
forever without being released.

(Thanks to Laurent for the above text, for finding, disgnosing and reporting
the bug)

- Use tty->flags bits for the flush status.

- Wait for the flag to clear again before returning

- Fix the doc error noted

- Fix flush of empty queue leaving stale flushpending
