tap: reference to KVA of an unloaded module causes kernel panic The commit 9a393b5d5988 ("tap: tap as an independent module") created a separate tap module that implements tap functionality and exports interfaces that will be used by macvtap and ipvtap modules to create create respective tap devices. However, that patch introduced a regression wherein the modules macvtap and ipvtap can be removed (through modprobe -r) while there are applications using the respective /dev/tapX devices. These applications cause kernel to hold reference to /dev/tapX through 'struct cdev macvtap_cdev' and 'struct cdev ipvtap_dev' defined in macvtap and ipvtap modules respectively. So, when the application is later closed the kernel panics because we are referencing KVA that is present in the unloaded modules. ----------8<------- Example ----------8<---------- $ sudo ip li add name mv0 link enp7s0 type macvtap $ sudo ip li show mv0 |grep mv0| awk -e '{print $1 $2}' 14:mv0@enp7s0: $ cat /dev/tap14 & $ lsmod |egrep -i 'tap|vlan' macvtap 16384 0 macvlan 24576 1 macvtap tap 24576 3 macvtap $ sudo modprobe -r macvtap $ fg cat /dev/tap14 ^C <...system panics...> BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffa038c500 IP: cdev_put+0xf/0x30 ----------8<-----------------8<---------- The fix is to set cdev.owner to the module that creates the tap device (either macvtap or ipvtap). With this set, the operations (in fs/char_dev.c) on char device holds and releases the module through cdev_get() and cdev_put() and will not allow the module to unload prematurely.
