Subject: [PATCH v3] Bluetooth: MGMT: revalidate LOAD_CONN_PARAM queued update
Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2026 12:15:18 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260707041518.2799385-1-zzzccc427@gmail.com> (raw)
MGMT_OP_LOAD_CONN_PARAM queues conn_update_sync() when a single parameter
update changes an existing LE central connection. The queued work currently
stores a borrowed hci_conn_params entry from hdev->le_conn_params. A later
LOAD_CONN_PARAM request can clear disabled parameters and free that entry
before hci_cmd_sync_work() runs the queued callback.
Do not keep the borrowed hci_conn_params pointer in queued work. Queue the
hci_conn instead and hold a reference until the queued callback completes.
When the work runs, revalidate that the connection is still present, look
up the current hci_conn_params entry, and cancel the update if userspace
removed that entry while the work was pending.
Copy the interval values from the current params entry under hdev->lock,
then drop the lock and keep using hci_le_conn_update_sync() to issue the
update.
Validation reproduced this kernel report:

v3:
- Keep using hci_le_conn_update_sync() instead of open-coding the HCI
command in mgmt.c.
- Queue a referenced hci_conn instead of allocating an address-key wrapper.
- Revalidate the connection and current hci_conn_params under hdev->lock,
then pass a stack copy of the interval fields to hci_le_conn_update_sync().
v2:
- Re-check hci_conn_params in conn_update_sync() and skip the queued
update if the entry was removed while the work was pending, as
suggested by Luiz.
- Queue only the address key and copy the current params and connection
handle under hdev->lock before issuing the HCI command.
