This leads then to wmediumd_wait_for_client_ack() using the data after it was already freed, and we also get stuck. Fix this by deferring the free to the outermost loop, instead just setting wait_for_ack=false whenever we find that we have to free a client. All client iterations (that can call back into the loop) then must use _safe() in order to not use the 'next' pointer after the client was removed (and the pointer poisoned). --- wmediumd/wmediumd.c | 22 +++++++++++++++++----- wmediumd/wmediumd.h | 2 +- 2 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/wmediumd/wmediumd.c b/wmediumd/wmediumd.c index 5304931fbf74..3b4aed35c981 100644 --- a/wmediumd/wmediumd.c +++ b/wmediumd/wmediumd.c @@ -279,7 +279,7 @@ static void wmediumd_notify_frame_start(struct usfstl_job *job) { struct frame *frame = container_of(job, struct frame, start_job); struct wmediumd *ctx = job->data; - struct client *client; + struct client *client, *tmp; struct { struct wmediumd_message_header hdr; struct wmediumd_tx_start start; @@ -292,7 +292,7 @@ static void wmediumd_notify_frame_start(struct usfstl_job *job) if (ctx->ctrl) usfstl_sched_ctrl_sync_to(ctx->ctrl); - list_for_each_entry(client, &ctx->clients, list) { + list_for_each_entry_safe(client, tmp, &ctx->clients, list) { if (!(client->flags & WMEDIUMD_CTL_NOTIFY_TX_START)) continue; @@ -583,11 +583,12 @@ static void wmediumd_remove_client(struct wmediumd *ctx, struct client *client) if (!list_empty(&client->list)) list_del(&client->list); + list_add(&client->list, &ctx->clients_to_free); if (client->flags & WMEDIUMD_CTL_NOTIFY_TX_START) ctx->need_start_notify--; - free(client); + client->wait_for_ack = false; } /* @@ -638,7 +639,7 @@ static void send_cloned_frame_msg(struct wmediumd *ctx, struct client *src, int rate_idx, int signal, int freq, uint64_t cookie) { - struct client *client; + struct client *client, *tmp; struct nl_msg *msg, *cmsg = NULL; msg = nlmsg_alloc(); @@ -670,7 +671,7 @@ static void send_cloned_frame_msg(struct wmediumd *ctx, struct client *src, if (ctx->ctrl) usfstl_sched_ctrl_sync_to(ctx->ctrl); - list_for_each_entry(client, &ctx->clients, list) { + list_for_each_entry_safe(client, tmp, &ctx->clients, list) { if (client->flags & WMEDIUMD_CTL_RX_ALL_FRAMES) { if (src == client && !cmsg) { struct nlmsghdr *nlh = nlmsg_hdr(msg); @@ -1356,6 +1357,7 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) INIT_LIST_HEAD(&ctx.stations); INIT_LIST_HEAD(&ctx.clients); + INIT_LIST_HEAD(&ctx.clients_to_free); if (load_config(&ctx, config_file, per_file)) return EXIT_FAILURE; @@ -1415,6 +1417,16 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) if (usfstl_sched_next_pending(&scheduler, NULL)) usfstl_sched_next(&scheduler); } + + while (!list_empty(&ctx.clients_to_free)) { + struct client *client; + + client = list_first_entry(&ctx.clients_to_free, + struct client, list); + + list_del(&client->list); + free(client); + } } free(ctx.sock); diff --git a/wmediumd/wmediumd.h b/wmediumd/wmediumd.h index 8619e28cbe9a..4b7ca6628ce9 100644 --- a/wmediumd/wmediumd.h +++ b/wmediumd/wmediumd.h @@ -196,7 +196,7 @@ struct wmediumd { struct usfstl_sched_ctrl *ctrl; - struct list_head clients; + struct list_head clients, clients_to_free; struct client nl_client; int num_stas;
