bpf: Sync pending IRQ work before freeing ring buffer
Fix a race where irq_work can be queued in bpf_ringbuf_commit() but the ring buffer is freed before the work executes. In the syzbot reproducer, a BPF program attached to sched_switch triggers bpf_ringbuf_commit(), queuing an irq_work. If the ring buffer is freed before this work executes, the irq_work thread may accesses freed memory. Calling `irq_work_sync(&rb->work)` ensures that all pending irq_work complete before freeing the buffer. Fixes: 457f44363a88 ("bpf: Implement BPF ring buffer and verifier support for it") Reported-by: syzbot+2617fc732430968b45d2@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=2617fc732430968b45d2 Tested-by: syzbot+2617fc732430968b45d2@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Noorain Eqbal <nooraineqbal@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251020180301.103366-1-nooraineqbal@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
