[PATCH v7 0/5] gpio: shared: replace platform lookup with dummy software nodes

[PATCH v7 0/5] gpio: shared: replace platform lookup with dummy software nodes

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Abel reported to me a crash on Eliza linked to fwnode GPIO lookup for
shared GPIOs. Turns out we don't support no-device, fwnode-based lookup
for shared GPIOs. With the NULL-pointer dereference now fixed, this is
a rework that implements support for this use-case.

Sashiko pointed out several issues under v4. Some of them were bogus and
I fixed the rest.

Tested on Eliza and made sure the fwnode-only lookup works correctly.

[PATCH v7 1/5] gpio: shared: factor out per-entry teardown helper

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Move the body of the loop in gpio_device_teardown_shared() into
gpio_shared_teardown_entry(). This is a preparation for unwinding a
partially completed gpiochip_setup_shared(), which will need to tear
down individual entries. No functional change.

[PATCH v7 3/5] gpio: shared: unwind partial failures in gpiochip_setup_shared()

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

If gpio_shared_make_adev() fails for one of the references of a shared
GPIO entry, the auxiliary devices already registered for the preceding
references are never removed. Similarly, when setting up an entry fails,
the entries that were successfully set up before it keep their requested
descriptors and proxy devices, as the caller does not call
gpio_device_teardown_shared() when gpiochip_setup_shared() fails.

Make gpiochip_setup_shared() all-or-nothing. Have
gpio_shared_setup_entry() undo its own partial work: free the descriptor
and remove only the auxiliary devices of the references that precede the
failed one, so that no device is removed that was never registered. On
failure of an entry, tear down the previously completed entries in
reverse order using the same helper as the regular removal path.

[PATCH v7 4/5] gpio: shared: detach the proxy device from struct gpio_shared_ref

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Sashiko reported a pre-existing issue with the reference-counted
auxiliary device being embedded in struct gpio_shared_ref. We
unconditionally memset() the struct when setting up the GPIO shared
proxy parent while there may still be references to it held by users.

While in practice this would never happen and sashiko seems to have
confused the parent auxiliary device and the separately allocated struct
device embedded in struct gpio_device, it's still a bad pattern and
could lead to memory corruption if a user deliberately took reference to
the auxiliary device via one of the lookup functions and kept it over
the GPIO parent's teardown.

Move the auxiliary device struct out of the shared reference structure
and allocate its memory separately on proxy setup.

Since we're already touching that field: change the name to something
more meaningful: it's more important to point out this is the proxy
device instead of indicating its type in the name.

[PATCH v7 5/5] gpio: shared: convert to using software nodes for GPIO shared proxy lookup

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Automated management of shared GPIOs only allows to request shared pins
when they're assigned to a real struct device. Firmware node, no-device
lookup currently isn't supported and can't be because we're using
platform lookup tables to point the callers to the shared proxy GPIO
controllers.

Rework the GPIO sharing by using dummy software nodes assigned to the
proxy devices and stored in the reference structures which allow us -
once the correct struct gpio_shared_ref is found - to find the correct
target GPIO device by its firmware node.

gpio: shared: convert to using software nodes for GPIO shared proxy lookup

This commit replaces platform lookup tables for shared GPIO proxy devices
with dummy software nodes assigned to the proxy auxiliary devices. This
allows looking up the target proxy GPIO device by its firmware node even
when no consumer struct device is present.

[Severity: High]
Does unregistering ref->proxy_swnode before deleting the proxy auxiliary
device cause a use-after-free of the struct swnode during device removal?

In gpio_shared_make_proxy_dev(), software_node_register() allocates the
struct swnode with an initial reference count of 1 (and swnode->managed
set to false), and device_set_node() attaches its fwnode to adev->dev.
When auxiliary_device_add() registers adev->dev (and when the proxy driver
registers its gpio_device), software_node_notify() increments the swnode
reference count for each device.

In gpio_shared_remove_proxy_dev(), calling software_node_unregister()
before auxiliary_device_delete(proxy) drops the initial creation reference
while proxy->dev is still registered:

gpio_shared_remove_proxy_dev()
  software_node_unregister(&ref->proxy_swnode) -> drops initial ref
  auxiliary_device_delete(proxy)
    device_del(&proxy->dev)
      device_platform_notify_remove(&proxy->dev)
        software_node_notify_remove(&proxy->dev)

When software_node_notify_remove() runs in drivers/base/swnode.c,
swnode_put() drops the last remaining reference and frees the struct
swnode, and then immediately reads from the freed structure:

	swnode_put(swnode);

	if (swnode->managed) {
		set_secondary_fwnode(dev, NULL);
		swnode_put(swnode);
	}

In addition, because swnode->managed is false, proxy->dev.fwnode is not
cleared, so acpi_device_notify_remove() in device_platform_notify_remove()
immediately dereferences dev->fwnode->ops on the freed swnode.

Should software_node_unregister(&ref->proxy_swnode) be called after
auxiliary_device_delete(proxy) and auxiliary_device_uninit(proxy) (or with
device_set_node(&proxy->dev, NULL) before unregistering), matching the
error unwind order in gpio_shared_make_proxy_dev()?
