I suggested a change of locking in do_tls_getsockopt_conf this morning [1]. The issue reported last seemed valid, but this patch is not at all what I had in mind. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/Y/ht6gQL+u6fj3dG@hog/Ack, I read the messages out of order, sorry.quoted
do_tls_setsockopt_conf fills crypto_info immediately from what userspace gives us (and clears it on exit in case of failure), which getsockopt could see since it's not locking the socket when it checks TLS_CRYPTO_INFO_READY. So getsockopt would progress up to the point it finally locks the socket, but if setsockopt failed, we could have cleared TLS_CRYPTO_INFO_READY and freed iv/rec_seq.Makes sense. We should just take the socket lock around all of do_tls_getsockopt(), then?That would make things simple and consistent. My idea was just taking the existing lock_sock in do_tls_getsockopt_conf out of the switch and put it just above TLS_CRYPTO_INFO_READY. While we're at it, should we move the ctx->prot_info.version != TLS_1_3_VERSION check in do_tls_setsockopt_no_pad under lock_sock?
Yes, or READ_ONCE(), same for do_tls_getsockopt_tx_zc() and its access on ctx->zerocopy_sendfile.
I don't think that can do anything wrong (we'd have to get past this check just before a failing setsockopt clears crypto_info, and even then we're just reading a bit from the context), it just looks a bit strange. Or just lock the socket around all of do_tls_setsockopt_no_pad, like the other options we have.
The delayed locking feels like a premature optimization, we'll keep having such issues with new options. Hence my vote to lock all of do_tls_getsockopt().
