Subject: [PATCH 1/2] rtc: tps6586x: fix possible race condition
Date: Thu, 17 May 2018 22:48:17 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180517204818.28593-1-alexandre.belloni@bootlin.com> (raw)
The probe function is not allowed to fail after the RTC is registered
because the following may happen:
CPU0: CPU1:
sys_load_module()
do_init_module()
do_one_initcall()
cmos_do_probe()
rtc_device_register()
__register_chrdev()
cdev->owner = struct module*
open("/dev/rtc0")
rtc_device_unregister()
module_put()
free_module()
module_free(mod->module_core)
/* struct module *module is now
freed */
chrdev_open()
spin_lock(cdev_lock)
cdev_get()
try_module_get()
module_is_live()
/* dereferences already
freed struct module* */
