This series adds an HID Configuration driver for the MSI Claw line of
Handheld Gaming PC's. The MSI Claw HID interface provides multiple
features, such as the ability to switch between xinput, dinput, and a
desktop mode, RGB control, rumble intensity, and mapping of the rear "M"
keys. There are additional gamepad modes that are not included in this
driver as they appear to be used in assembly line testing or are
incomplete in the firmware. During my testing I found them to be unstable.

The initial version of this driver was written by Denis Benato, which
contained the initial reverse-engineering and implementation for the
gamepad mode switching. This work was later expanded by Zhouwang Huang
to include more gamepad modes and additional features. Finally, I
refactored the entire driver, fixed multiple bugs, and refined the overall
format to conform to kernel driver best practices and style guide.

Claude was used initially by Zhouwang Huang to quickly parse HID captures
during the reverse-engineering of some of the features. Since Claude had
already been used, as a test of its capabilities I had it implement the
rumble intensity attribute after I had already rewritten most of the
driver, which I then manually edited to fix some mistakes. I also used
Claude to review the driver and these patches for any mistakes and bugs.

v3:
  - Add mutex for read/write if rgb frame data.
  - Ensure claw_hw_output_report is properly guarded.
  - Remove setting rgb_frame_count when reading rgb profiles as it always
    returns garbage data.
  - Ensure rgb_speed is getting drvdata from a valid lookup (not hdev).
  - Use scoped_guard where necessary.
  - Reoder claw_probe to ensure all mutex, completion, and variable
    assignments are in place prior to setting drvdata.
  - Ensure gamepad_mode is set to a valid enum value in claw_probe.
v2:
  - Use mutexes to guard SYNC_TO_ROM calls and pending_profile calls.
  - Rename driver to hid-msi and add generic entrypoints for
    probe/resume/remove that call claw specific functions in order to
    future proof the driver for other MSI HID interfaces.
  - Fix various bugs and formatting issues.

Adds configuration HID driver for the MSI Claw series of handheld PC's.
In this initial patch add the initial driver outline and attributes for
changing the gamepad mode, M-key behavior, and add a WO reset function.

Sending the SWITCH_MODE and RESET commands causes a USB disconnect in
the device. The completion will therefore never get hit and would trigger
an -EIO. To avoid showing the user an error for every write to these
attrs a bypass for the completion handling is introduced when timeout ==
0.

The initial version of this patch was written by Denis Benato, which
contained the initial reverse-engineering and implementation for the
gamepad mode switching. This work was later expanded by Zhouwang Huang
to include more gamepad modes. Finally, I refactored the drivers data
in/out flow and overall format to conform to kernel driver best
practices and style guides. Claude was used as an initial reviewer of
this patch.

  - Reoder claw_probe to ensure all mutex, completion, and variable

  - Ensure gamepad_mode is set to a valid enum value in claw_probe.
v2:
  - Rename driver to hid-msi from hid-msi-claw.
  - Rename reusable/generic functions to msi_* from claw_*, retaining
    claw specific functions.
  - Add generic entrypoints for probe, remove, and raw event that route
    to claw specific functions.

Adds attributes that allow for remapping the M-keys with up to 5 values
when in macro mode. There are 2 mappable buttons on the rear of the
device, M1 on the right and M2 on the left. When mapped, the events will
fire from one of three event devices: gamepad buttons will fire from the
device handled by xpad, while keyboard and mouse events will fire from
respectively typed evdevs provided by the input core. Names of each
mapping have been kept as close to the event that will fire from the evdev
as possible, with context added to the ABS_ events on the direction of the
movement.

Initial reverse-engineering and implementation of this feature was done
by Zhouwang Huang. I refactored the overall format to conform to kernel
driver best practices and style guides. Claude was used as an initial
reviewer of this patch.

v3:
  - Use scoped_guard where necessary.
v2:
  - Add mutex for SYNC_TO_ROM commands to ensure every SYNC is completed
    before more data is written to the MCU volatile memory.
  - Add mutex for profile_pending to ensure every profile action
    response is  serialized to the generating command.

Adds RGB control interface for MSI Claw devices. The MSI Claw uses a
fairly unique RGB interface. It has 9 total zones (4 per joystick ring
and 1 for the ABXY buttons), and supports up to 8 sequential frames of
RGB zone data. Each frame is written to a specific area of MCU memory by
the profile command, the value of which changes based on the firmware of
the device. Unlike other devices (such as the Legion Go or the OneXPlayer
devices), there are no hard coded effects built into the MCU. Instead,
the basic effects are provided as a series of frame data. I have
mirrored the effects available in Windows in this driver, while keeping
the effect names consistent with the Lenovo drivers for the effects that
are similar.

Initial reverse-engineering and implementation of this feature was done
by Zhouwang Huang. I refactored the overall format to conform to kernel
driver best practices and style guides. Claude was used as an initial
reviewer of this patch.

v3:
  - Add mutex for read/write of rgb frame data.
  - Remove setting rgb_frame_count when reading rgb profiles as it always
    returns garbage data.
  - Ensure rgb_speed is getting drvdata from a valid lookup (not hdev).
v2:
  - Use pending_profile mutex

Adds intensity adjustment for the left and right rumble motors.

Claude was used during the reverse-engineering data gathering for this
feature done by Zhouwang Huang. As the code had already been affected,
I used Claude to create the initial framing for the feature, then did
manual cleanup of the _show and _store functions afterwards to fix bugs
and keep the coding style consistent. Claude was also used as an initial
reviewer of this patch.

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 4 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] Incorrect teardown order in `claw_remove()` creates a race condition that leaks sysfs attributes and leads to a Use-After-Free.
- [High] Unreasonably short 8ms timeout causes spurious `-EBUSY` failures on `HZ=100` systems.
- [Medium] Read-modify-write race condition in sysfs configuration handlers causes silent state corruption.
- [Medium] Missing `.suspend` callback allows hardware-interacting delayed works to execute during system sleep.

Subject: HID: hid-msi: Add MSI Claw configuration driver

Adds configuration HID driver for the MSI Claw series of handheld PC's.
In this initial patch add the initial driver outline and attributes for
changing the gamepad mode, M-key behavior, and add a WO reset function.

Could this lead to a read-modify-write race condition if two threads write to
the sysfs attributes simultaneously?

They read drvdata->mkeys_function locklessly to construct the command payload.
After the payload is prepared, claw_hw_output_report() is called, which then
acquires cfg_mutex to send the command. If two threads write concurrently,
the second one could overwrite the first one's change because it read a stale
state.

Should the payload construction be performed inside the cfg_mutex critical
section?

Will this 8 millisecond timeout cause spurious failures on systems configured
with a 100 hz timer tick?

On such systems, msecs_to_jiffies(8) evaluates to exactly 1 jiffy. A 1-jiffy
timeout using wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() can expire in under
1 millisecond if the timer tick fires immediately after the wait is scheduled,
which might not provide enough time for the interrupt to complete and will
return -EBUSY.

Does this teardown sequence leak sysfs attributes and cause a use-after-free?

If cfg_setup_fn() is executing concurrently, device_remove_group() will do
nothing because the sysfs group has not been added yet. Then
cancel_delayed_work_sync() will wait for the work to finish.

Meanwhile, cfg_setup_fn() proceeds to call device_add_group(), adding the
sysfs attributes. When the work finishes, claw_remove() completes and drvdata
is freed. The sysfs attributes remain registered to the device, and any
subsequent read or write from userspace will trigger a use-after-free when
accessing the freed drvdata pointer.

Should cancel_delayed_work_sync() happen before device_remove_group() to
ensure correct teardown order?

Does this driver need a suspend callback?

The cfg_setup and cfg_resume delayed works are scheduled on the standard
non-freezable system workqueue. Without a suspend callback to cancel them,
these works can execute while the system is asleep.

When they fire, they will call hid_hw_output_report() on a suspended
usb device, which could cause input/output timeouts, lockups, or inadvertently
wake up the hardware.

Can reading drvdata->profile_pending locklessly here cause data races?

It is modified under profile_mutex in process context (e.g. in
claw_buttons_show), which could allow a delayed response to silently
overwrite the wrong profile's memory buffer if another thread is executing
a new request.

Could this cause unbounded kernel log spam?

Since HID devices act as untrusted input and can send up to 1000 reports
per second, a malicious or malfunctioning device could flood the system
and cause a local denial of service via excessive logging. Should this
use dev_warn_ratelimited() or silently drop unsolicited packets?

Are these 8ms timeouts dangerously short?

On kernel configurations where HZ=100, msecs_to_jiffies(8) yields 1 jiffy. A
1-jiffy timeout can expire almost immediately depending on the timing of the
next timer tick. Will this falsely abort the wait and return -EBUSY before
the hardware has time to process the USB HID request?

Does mixing goto-based cleanup labels with scoped_guard violate the cleanup
subsystem guidelines?

The kernel guidelines explicitly forbid mixing goto-based cleanups with
scope-based cleanups in the same function, as it creates confusing ownership
semantics and can lead to LIFO ordering bugs.

Because the driver uses a single shared completion (send_cmd_complete) for all
hardware responses in claw_raw_event(), could a delayed reply from an
asynchronous command cause the wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() in
claw_hw_output_report() to return prematurely here?

This could result in uninitialized or stale data being returned to userspace.

Can this blind cast cause a kernel panic?

If a virtual HID device is injected from user-space using the uhid subsystem
with a matching BUS_USB identifier, the parent device is the uhid virtual
device, not a usb_interface. Accessing udev->descriptor.bcdDevice in this case
would result in an out-of-bounds memory read.

Should this use hid_is_usb(hdev) to verify the transport before executing
USB-specific initialization?

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 4 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] Out-of-bounds write in `claw_profile_event` due to an off-by-one bounds check on `frame_calc`.
- [High] Sleeping in atomic context due to `mutex` acquisition in the HID `raw_event` callback.
- [High] Use-After-Free and data race due to devm LED unregistration happening after `rgb_queue` is cancelled.

HID: hid-msi: Add RGB control interface

This commit adds an RGB control interface for MSI Claw devices, managing
up to 8 sequential frames of RGB zone data. It mirrors Windows effects
and adds sysfs/LED class interfaces for configuration.

Can this result in an out-of-bounds write?

Since CLAW_RGB_MAX_FRAMES is 8 and the rgb_frames array is sized to 8, a
frame_calc value of 8 would pass this check but write past the end of the
array.

Should this check be >= instead?

Could this mutex acquisition cause a sleep-in-atomic bug?

This function is called synchronously from claw_raw_event(), which is the
HID raw_event callback and typically runs in atomic context (softirq or
hardirq).

Should this use a spinlock or defer the work to a workqueue instead?

Does the order here create a race condition with the delayed work?

If cfg_setup executes concurrently, it might call device_add_group()
immediately after device_remove_group() finishes. By the time
cancel_delayed_work_sync() runs, the setup might have already re-added
the sysfs attributes.

Would it be safer to cancel the delayed work before removing the sysfs
groups?

Additionally, because the LED class device is registered via devm in the
probe function, it won't be unregistered until after claw_remove() returns.

Since brightness_set is checked by the LED core without locks, could a
concurrent write to the brightness sysfs attribute slip past the NULL
check and rearm rgb_queue after it has been cancelled?

When devres later frees drvdata, could this rearmed delayed work cause
a use-after-free?

HID: hid-msi: Add Rumble Intensity Attributes

This commit adds sysfs attributes to control the left and right rumble motor
intensity on MSI Claw devices. It implements store and show functions that
communicate with the device firmware and uses a state machine to handle the
asynchronous responses.

Is the state machine vulnerable to crossed data from delayed USB events?

If claw_hw_output_report() times out (using the 8ms timeout), this function
clears profile_pending and returns. If a subsequent read for the right
motor then sets profile_pending to CLAW_RUMBLE_RIGHT_PENDING, could a
delayed response from this left motor request arrive?

If so, claw_profile_event() would see CLAW_RUMBLE_RIGHT_PENDING,
incorrectly save the left rumble data into drvdata->rumble_intensity_right,
and clear the pending state. This would complete the right rumble request
with the left motor's data.

Similarly, could a stray ACK from a timed-out store operation prematurely
complete a show operation, exiting without clearing profile_pending and
permanently corrupting the state machine?
