In some cases it is possible for mmu_interval_notifier_remove() to race with mn_tree_inv_end() allowing it to return while the notifier data structure is still in use. Consider the following sequence: CPU0 - mn_tree_inv_end() CPU1 - mmu_interval_notifier_remove() ----------------------------------- ------------------------------------ spin_lock(subscriptions->lock); seq = subscriptions->invalidate_seq; spin_lock(subscriptions->lock); spin_unlock(subscriptions->lock); subscriptions->invalidate_seq++; wait_event(invalidate_seq != seq); return; interval_tree_remove(interval_sub); kfree(interval_sub); spin_unlock(subscriptions->lock); wake_up_all(); As the wait_event() condition is true it will return immediately. This can lead to use-after-free type errors if the caller frees the data structure containing the interval notifier subscription while it is still on a deferred list. Fix this by taking the appropriate lock when reading invalidate_seq to ensure proper synchronisation. I observed this whilst running stress testing during some development. You do have to be pretty unlucky, but it leads to the usual problems of use-after-free (memory corruption, kernel crash, difficult to diagnose WARN_ON, etc).
