[ Upstream commit 4acfe3dfde685a5a9eaec5555351918e2d7266a1 ]

Dan Carpenter spotted a race condition in a couple of situations like
these in the test_firmware driver:

static int test_dev_config_update_u8(const char *buf, size_t size, u8 *cfg)
{
        u8 val;
        int ret;

        ret = kstrtou8(buf, 10, &val);
        if (ret)
                return ret;

        mutex_lock(&test_fw_mutex);
        *(u8 *)cfg = val;
        mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex);

        /* Always return full write size even if we didn't consume all */
        return size;
}

static ssize_t config_num_requests_store(struct device *dev,
                                         struct device_attribute *attr,
                                         const char *buf, size_t count)
{
        int rc;

        mutex_lock(&test_fw_mutex);
        if (test_fw_config->reqs) {
                pr_err("Must call release_all_firmware prior to changing config\n");
                rc = -EINVAL;
                mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex);
                goto out;
        }
        mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex);

        rc = test_dev_config_update_u8(buf, count,
                                       &test_fw_config->num_requests);

out:
        return rc;
}

static ssize_t config_read_fw_idx_store(struct device *dev,
                                        struct device_attribute *attr,
                                        const char *buf, size_t count)
{
        return test_dev_config_update_u8(buf, count,
                                         &test_fw_config->read_fw_idx);
}

The function test_dev_config_update_u8() is called from both the locked
and the unlocked context, function config_num_requests_store() and
config_read_fw_idx_store() which can both be called asynchronously as
they are driver's methods, while test_dev_config_update_u8() and siblings
change their argument pointed to by u8 *cfg or similar pointer.

To avoid deadlock on test_fw_mutex, the lock is dropped before calling
test_dev_config_update_u8() and re-acquired within test_dev_config_update_u8()
itself, but alas this creates a race condition.

Having two locks wouldn't assure a race-proof mutual exclusion.

This situation is best avoided by the introduction of a new, unlocked
function __test_dev_config_update_u8() which can be called from the locked
context and reducing test_dev_config_update_u8() to:

static int test_dev_config_update_u8(const char *buf, size_t size, u8 *cfg)
{
        int ret;

        mutex_lock(&test_fw_mutex);
        ret = __test_dev_config_update_u8(buf, size, cfg);
        mutex_unlock(&test_fw_mutex);

        return ret;
}

doing the locking and calling the unlocked primitive, which enables both
locked and unlocked versions without duplication of code.

The similar approach was applied to all functions called from the locked
and the unlocked context, which safely mitigates both deadlocks and race
conditions in the driver.

__test_dev_config_update_bool(), __test_dev_config_update_u8() and
__test_dev_config_update_size_t() unlocked versions of the functions
were introduced to be called from the locked contexts as a workaround
without releasing the main driver's lock and thereof causing a race
condition.

The test_dev_config_update_bool(), test_dev_config_update_u8() and
test_dev_config_update_size_t() locked versions of the functions
are being called from driver methods without the unnecessary multiplying
of the locking and unlocking code for each method, and complicating
the code with saving of the return value across lock.

From: Mirsad Goran Todorovac <mirsad.todorovac@alu.unizg.hr>

[ Upstream commit be37bed754ed90b2655382f93f9724b3c1aae847 ]

Dan Carpenter spotted that test_fw_config->reqs will be leaked if
trigger_batched_requests_store() is called two or more times.
The same appears with trigger_batched_requests_async_store().

This bug wasn't trigger by the tests, but observed by Dan's visual
inspection of the code.

The recommended workaround was to return -EBUSY if test_fw_config->reqs
is already allocated.
