Subject: [PATCH v3 5/5] Input: applespi - fix use-after-free in applespi_remove()
Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2026 00:22:19 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260720162219.32324-6-fourdollars@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260720162219.32324-1-fourdollars@debian.org>
Replace the separate read and write drain helpers with a single barrier using
cancel_spi and wait_event_lock_irq_timeout(). Wait for outstanding asynchronous
SPI operations to complete before tearing down the driver context.
Disable GPE and remove the GPE handler prior to setting cancel_spi = true.
This prevents level-triggered GPE interrupt storms where applespi_notify()
repeatedly attempts applespi_async() and gets rejected with -ESHUTDOWN while
the hardware interrupt line remains asserted.
If the 3-second wait times out while SPI transfers are still outstanding, issue
a warning and fallback to waiting unconditionally until all transfers complete,
guaranteeing that applespi_remove() never returns prematurely while transfers
are active.
