Subject: [PATCH v3 2/5] HID: amd_sfh: Serialize access to the shared emp2 pointer
Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2026 23:22:27 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260803175230.3839752-3-Basavaraj.Natikar@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260803175230.3839752-1-Basavaraj.Natikar@amd.com>
The SFH accessors reach the device through a file-global emp2 pointer
that is published at probe and cleared on remove. amd_get_sfh_info() is
exported and called from other modules on unrelated threads, so a reader
can observe a non-NULL emp2 and then race a concurrent unbind that clears
it and frees the device.
Serialize the emp2 publish/clear and all readers under a mutex, so a
reader either sees a live device for the whole access or sees NULL.
