nilfs2: avoid having an active sc_timer before freeing sci
commit 9a6b60cb147d53968753a34805211d2e5e08c027 upstream. Because kthread_stop did not stop sc_task properly and returned -EINTR, the sc_timer was not properly closed, ultimately causing the problem [1] reported by syzbot when freeing sci due to the sc_timer not being closed. Because the thread sc_task main function nilfs_segctor_thread() returns 0 when it succeeds, when the return value of kthread_stop() is not 0 in nilfs_segctor_destroy(), we believe that it has not properly closed sc_timer. We use timer_shutdown_sync() to sync wait for sc_timer to shutdown, and set the value of sc_task to NULL under the protection of lock sc_state_lock, so as to avoid the issue caused by sc_timer not being properly shutdowned. [1] ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object: 00000000dacb411a object type: timer_list hint: nilfs_construction_timeout Call trace: nilfs_segctor_destroy fs/nilfs2/segment.c:2811 [inline] nilfs_detach_log_writer+0x668/0x8cc fs/nilfs2/segment.c:2877 nilfs_put_super+0x4c/0x12c fs/nilfs2/super.c:509 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20251029225226.16044-1-konishi.ryusuke@gmail.com Fixes: 3f66cc261ccb ("nilfs2: use kthread_create and kthread_stop for the log writer thread") Signed-off-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@gmail.com> Reported-by: syzbot+24d8b70f039151f65590@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=24d8b70f039151f65590 Tested-by: syzbot+24d8b70f039151f65590@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Edward Adam Davis <eadavis@qq.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [6.12+] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
