dma_fence objects created by an entity might outlive the
drm_gpu_scheduler this entity was bound to if those fences are retained
by other other objects, like a dma_buf resv. This means that
drm_sched_fence::sched might be invalid when the resv is walked, which
in turn leads to a UAF when dma_fence_ops::get_timeline_name() is called.

This probably went unnoticed so far, because the drm_gpu_scheduler had
the lifetime of the drm_device, so, unless you were removing the device,
there were no reasons for the scheduler to be gone before its fences.

Nope, that is intentional design. get_timeline_name() is not safe to be called after the fence signaled because that would causes circular dependency problems.

E.g. when you have hardware fences it can happen that fences reference a driver module (for the function printing the name) and the module in turn keeps fences around.

So you easily end up with a module you can never unload.


With the introduction of a new model where each entity has its own
drm_gpu_scheduler instance, this situation is likely to happen every time
a GPU context is destroyed and some of its fences remain attached to
dma_buf objects still owned by other drivers/processes.

In order to make drm_sched_fence_get_timeline_name() safe, we need to
copy the scheduler name into our own refcounted object that's only
destroyed when both the scheduler and all its fences are gone.

The fact drm_sched_fence might have a reference to the drm_gpu_scheduler
even after it's been released is worrisome though, but I'd rather
discuss that with everyone than come up with a solution that's likely
to end up being rejected.

Note that the bug was found while repeatedly reading dma_buf's debugfs
file, which, at some point, calls dma_resv_describe() on a resv that
contains signalled fences coming from a destroyed GPU context.
AFAIK, there's nothing invalid there.

Yeah but reading debugfs is not guaranteed to crash the kernel.

On the other hand the approach with a kref'ed string looks rather sane to me. One comment on this below.

Make that a char name[] and embed the name into the structure. The macro struct_size() can be used to calculate the size.

This avoids having two allocations for the timeline name.
