Subject: [PATCH 11/12] spi: use generic driver_override infrastructure
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2026 01:59:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260324005919.2408620-12-dakr@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260324005919.2408620-1-dakr@kernel.org>

When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.

Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.

Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]

Also note that we do not enable the driver_override feature of struct
bus_type, as SPI - in contrast to most other buses - passes "" to
sysfs_emit() when the driver_override pointer is NULL. Thus, printing
"\n" instead of "(null)\n".

Reported-by: Gui-Dong Han <hanguidong02@gmail.com>
Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220789
Fixes: 5039563e7c25 ("spi: Add driver_override SPI device attribute")
