Subject[PATCH 4.19 3/3] select: Fix indefinitely sleeping task in poll_schedule_timeout()
Date
From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

commit 68514dacf2715d11b91ca50d88de047c086fea9c upstream.

A task can end up indefinitely sleeping in do_select() ->
poll_schedule_timeout() when the following race happens:

TASK1 (thread1) TASK2 TASK1 (thread2)
do_select()
setup poll_wqueues table
with 'fd'
write data to 'fd'
pollwake()
table->triggered = 1
closes 'fd' thread1 is
waiting for
poll_schedule_timeout()
- sees table->triggered
table->triggered = 0
return -EINTR
loop back in do_select()

But at this point when TASK1 loops back, the fdget() in the setup of
poll_wqueues fails. So now so we never find 'fd' is ready for reading
and sleep in poll_schedule_timeout() indefinitely.

Treat an fd that got closed as a fd on which some event happened. This
makes sure cannot block indefinitely in do_select().

Another option would be to return -EBADF in this case but that has a
potential of subtly breaking applications that excercise this behavior
and it happens to work for them. So returning fd as active seems like a
safer choice.
