commit b5020a8e6b upstream.
Syzbot reports crashes in kvm_irqfd_assign(), caused by use-after-free
when kvm_irqfd_assign() and kvm_irqfd_deassign() run in parallel
for one specific eventfd. When the assign path hasn't finished but irqfd
has been added to kvm->irqfds.items list, another thead may deassign the
eventfd and free struct kvm_kernel_irqfd(). The assign path then uses
the struct kvm_kernel_irqfd that has been freed by deassign path. To avoid
such issue, keep irqfd under kvm->irq_srcu protection after the irqfd
has been added to kvm->irqfds.items list, and call synchronize_srcu()
in irq_shutdown() to make sure that irqfd has been fully initialized in
the assign path.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
