Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: us144mkii: re-anchor capture URBs on resubmission
Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2026 21:36:25 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260804123625.91769-1-baul.lee@xbow.com> (raw)
capture_urb_complete() resubmits each capture URB without anchoring it:
usb_get_urb(urb);
ret = usb_submit_urb(urb, GFP_ATOMIC);
Anchoring is a property of a submission, not of the URB. The giveback
path calls usb_unanchor_urb() before urb->complete(), so an URB
resubmitted from its own completion handler is off the anchor. The
capture URBs are anchored once, at stream start, so from the first
completion onward tascam->capture_anchor is empty.
tascam_free_urbs(), tascam_disconnect(), tascam_suspend() and the
stop-work path all call usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&tascam->capture_anchor)
to reap the capture URBs before anything is freed. With the anchor empty
those calls return immediately and the URBs stay queued on the host
controller.
tascam_free_urbs() then returns the capture transfer buffers with
usb_free_coherent(), and snd_card_free() releases the snd_card
allocation that embeds tascam (card->private_data). The controller
completes the queued URBs afterwards, writing device-supplied data into
the freed transfer buffer, and capture_urb_complete() dereferences the
freed driver object.
KASAN on 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64):

Restore the usb_anchor_urb() between the reference count bump and the
resubmission. That also makes the handler's usb_unanchor_urb() failure
arm meaningful again and restores usb_kill_anchored_urbs() as a barrier
on the disconnect, suspend and stop-work paths.
The anchoring was removed on the premise that the URB is already anchored
from the initial submission, which does not hold once the first giveback
has run.
