Linux kernel source tree
6f582b273e
Currently when the client creates a cifsFileInfo structure for a newly opened file, it allocates a list of byte-range locks with a pointer to the new cfile and attaches this list to the inode's lock list. The latter happens before initializing all other fields, e.g. cfile->tlink. Thus a partially initialized cifsFileInfo structure becomes available to other threads that walk through the inode's lock list. One example of such a thread may be an oplock break worker thread that tries to push all cached byte-range locks. This causes NULL-pointer dereference in smb2_push_mandatory_locks() when accessing cfile->tlink: [598428.945633] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000038 ... [598428.945749] Workqueue: cifsoplockd cifs_oplock_break [cifs] [598428.945793] RIP: 0010:smb2_push_mandatory_locks+0xd6/0x5a0 [cifs] ...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
