On the stop_streaming()/release() paths the buffers and, on close, the m2m context are torn down while this worker may still be pending or running, leading to a use-after-free of the freed session state. vdec_poweroff() previously only called vdec_ops->stop() and disabled the clocks; it never synchronized against the worker. Two problems follow: - The decode (VDEC) interrupt is threaded (devm_request_threaded_irq(.., vdec_isr, vdec_threaded_isr, ..)) and its threaded handler re-arms the worker through amvdec_dst_buf_done() -> schedule_work(&sess->esparser_queue_work). A handler that is still in flight can therefore queue the worker again after teardown has begun. - The worker touches ESPARSER/DOS registers, so it must not run after the clocks have been disabled. Quiesce everything in vdec_poweroff(), in order, before disabling the clocks: vdec_ops->stop() masks the VDEC interrupt in hardware so no new IRQ can be raised; synchronize_irq() on the VDEC line then drains any threaded handler still in flight (the only context that re-arms the worker); cancel_work_sync() finally cancels/waits for the worker. After this nothing can re-arm the work, and the worker can no longer run with clocks disabled or against a freed m2m context. Only the VDEC interrupt is synchronized: the ESPARSER interrupt handler (esparser_isr()) only acknowledges the start-code-found status and wakes the internal wait queue used by esparser_write_data(); it never touches the session or schedules the worker, so it cannot re-arm it. stop_streaming()/release() run under the video device lock, not under sess->lock (the mutex the worker takes), so cancel_work_sync() here cannot deadlock against the worker. The VDEC IRQ number is now stored in struct amvdec_core so it is available to synchronize_irq() at teardown. Fixes: 3e7f51bd9607 ("media: meson: add v4l2 m2m video decoder driver") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Doruk Tan Ozturk --- v2: also synchronize_irq() before cancelling the work, so a delayed threaded IRQ cannot re-arm it after cancel_work_sync() (raised by automated review). Only the VDEC IRQ is synchronized, as the ESPARSER IRQ handler does not touch the session or schedule the work. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-media/20260615140529.52653-1-doruk@0sec.ai/ drivers/staging/media/meson/vdec/vdec.c | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/staging/media/meson/vdec/vdec.h | 3 +++ 2 files changed, 24 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/staging/media/meson/vdec/vdec.c b/drivers/staging/media/meson/vdec/vdec.c index 4b77ec1af5a7..5304987546fa 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/media/meson/vdec/vdec.c +++ b/drivers/staging/media/meson/vdec/vdec.c @@ -123,6 +123,25 @@ static void vdec_poweroff(struct amvdec_session *sess) codec_ops->drain(sess); vdec_ops->stop(sess); + + /* + * vdec_ops->stop() masks the VDEC interrupt at the hardware level, so + * no new IRQ can be raised past this point.
