[PATCH 0/8] nvmem: make reg_write() take a const void *

[PATCH 0/8] nvmem: make reg_write() take a const void *

[Link Mauve]

This callback used to take a mutable void * for no reason, which causes
the compiler to be unaware that the val buffer should never be modified
by the callback.

This was found while drafting the nvmem-provider Rust abstraction.

I’ve split this series based on the subsystem each patch affects, but I
think it should go through the nvmem tree in one go after gathering the
acks from the other subsystem maintainers.

I’ve been told previously to not include too many maintainers in Cc, but
I don’t know which ones to remove from the get_maintainers.pl output, so
I’ve still included everyone, sorry about that.

Thanks,

[PATCH 2/8] nvmem: make all reg_write callbacks take const void *

[Link Mauve]

The previous commit switched from a pointer to mutable data to a pointer
to immutable data, so let’s fix all users of this API.

[PATCH 8/8] media: ov2740: remove NULL reg_write callback

[Link Mauve]

This field is already initialized to NULL, so there is no reason to
write it again.

This prevents it from appearing while grepping for reg_write in the
future.

[Severity: High]
Does modifying this callback signature without updating the implementing
drivers cause widespread build failures and runtime kCFI panics?

For example, drivers/nvmem/bcm-ocotp.c:bcm_otpc_write() still expects
a mutable void *:

static int bcm_otpc_write(void *context, unsigned int offset, void *val,
                          size_t bytes)

When this is assigned to reg_write in bcm_otpc_nvmem_config, it causes an
incompatible pointer type mismatch. This leads to build errors with modern
compilers or -Werror, and will trigger kernel panics upon any nvmem write
operation on kernels with Control-Flow Integrity (kCFI) enabled.

[Severity: Low]
Does this cause a compiler warning for discarded qualifiers?

In the body of cmos_nvram_write(), the code assigns val to a non-const
pointer just below the diff context:

    unsigned char *buf = val;
    
Should buf also be declared as const unsigned char * to avoid breaking
builds where warnings are treated as errors?

[Severity: Low]
Similar to the cmos driver, does this discard the const qualifier?

The rv3032_eeprom_write() function assigns the new const void *val to a 
non-const pointer just below the quoted diff context:

    u8 *buf = val;

Should this be updated to const u8 *buf as well?

[Severity: Low]
Does this assignment in s35390a_set_reg() trigger a discarded qualifiers
warning?

The struct i2c_msg defines its buf member as __u8 * (non-const). When the
msg array is initialized just below this hunk:

    struct i2c_msg msg[] = {
        {
            .addr = client->addr,
            .len = len,
            .buf = buf
        },
    };

Will assigning the const u8 *buf to the non-const .buf field cause a compiler
warning? Would it be better to explicitly cast it like (u8 *)buf to satisfy
the i2c_msg struct definition?

[Severity: Low]
Does this syntax error in qfprom_reg_write() prevent the qfprom driver from
compiling?

It looks like "void void *_val" was introduced during a find-and-replace
to make the callback take a const void pointer.

[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does the loop in m48t59_nvram_write()
completely ignore the requested offset?

It appears that cnt starts at 0 and is used as the hardware address instead
of adding the requested offset:

drivers/rtc/rtc-m48t59.c:m48t59_nvram_write() {
    ...
	for (; cnt < size; cnt++)
		M48T59_WRITE(*buf++, cnt);
    ...
}

Any subsystem or user-space application performing an NVMEM write at an
offset greater than 0 will silently overwrite data at the very beginning
of the NVRAM.

The same issue seems to be present in m48t59_nvram_read(), which could
lead to incorrect data disclosure:

drivers/rtc/rtc-m48t59.c:m48t59_nvram_read() {
    ...
	for (; cnt < size; cnt++)
		*buf++ = M48T59_READ(cnt);
    ...
}

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does this function silently drop data when
writing an odd number of bytes in 16-bit mode?

In 16-bit word mode (EE_ADDR16), the driver intercepts the call and truncates
the count:

    count &= ~1;

If count is 1, it becomes 0, skipping the write loop entirely and returning 0.
Because the nvmem core interprets a 0 return value as success, the caller
believes the data was written even though the hardware was unmodified.

[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does m24lr_write() use the device offset to
index the source memory buffer?

When m24lr_nvmem_write() calls m24lr_write(..., val, bytes, offset, true),
m24lr_write() passes buf + offset to the regmap write instead of advancing
by the number of bytes written:

    err = m24lr_regmap_write(regmap, buf + offset, n, offset);

Since buf is only sized for the data chunk being written, adding the device
offset pushes the pointer far past the end of buf, leading to an out-of-bounds
read of kernel memory that gets written to the external EEPROM.

[Severity: Low]
Does passing the now-const val directly to nvmem_device_write() discard the
const qualifier?

nvmem_device_write() expects a mutable void pointer, which will cause a build
warning (and potentially break the build if -Werror is enabled):

    ret = nvmem_device_write(nvmem->base_nvmem, nvmem->offset + offset,

This is a pre-existing issue, but does dereferencing this const char pointer
trigger sign-extension when passed to writel()?

Later in this function, the byte is written like this:

    writel(*(value + byte), rb + MMAP_EEPROM_OFFSET(EEPROM_DATA_REG));

If the byte has its most significant bit set (e.g. is negative), the C compiler
will sign-extend it to a 32-bit negative integer before passing it to writel(),
which writes 1s into the upper 24 bits of the register. Should value be cast to
const u8 * to ensure safe zero-extension?

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does this function need
locking to protect the shared IOMEM buffer?

It appears that concurrent calls to meson_sm_call_write() or
meson_sm_call_read() could corrupt the shared sm_shmem_in_base and
sm_shmem_out_base buffers. If multiple threads concurrently write or read
the nvmem sysfs files, they might overwrite each other's payloads before
the SMC executes, sending corrupted data to the Secure Monitor.

A similar pattern exists in meson_sm_call_read():

	if (buffer)
		memcpy(buffer, fw->sm_shmem_out_base, size);

Are there external locks that guarantee serialized access to these functions,
or should we be synchronizing these shared memory operations?

[Severity: Low]
Are there users of this API outside of the drivers/nvmem/ directory that were
missed during this migration?

For example, when building drivers like drivers/rtc/rtc-cmos.c or
drivers/misc/eeprom/at24.c, will assigning their unupdated callbacks to
nvmem_config.reg_write trigger incompatible-pointer-types build errors?

[Severity: Low]
Does this cause a compilation failure?

The double void void declaration appears to be a syntax error that will break
the build when the Qualcomm QFPROM driver is enabled.

--- Patch [7]: [PATCH 7/8] mfd: twl-core: make reg_write callback take const void * ---
commit 5525fd3bfa73424e942892bd1e1fb2d2e9554159
Author: Link Mauve <linkmauve@linkmauve.fr>

mfd: twl-core: make reg_write callback take const void *

This commit updates the reg_write callback to use a const void pointer for
its data argument. It fixes all users of the nvmem_config API to accommodate
this change.

> mfd: twl-core: make reg_write callback take const void *

[Severity: Low]
This isn't a bug, but should the description after the subsystem prefix be
capitalized (i.e., "Make reg_write...") to match the MFD subsystem guidelines?

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but I noticed a potential resource leak in
twl_probe(). If devm_mfd_add_devices() fails, the code jumps directly to
the 'free' label, skipping the 'fail' label:

drivers/mfd/twl-core.c:twl_probe() {
    ...
		status = devm_mfd_add_devices(&client->dev, PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE,
					      cells, num_cells, NULL, 0, NULL);
		if (status < 0)
			goto free;
    ...
fail:
	if (status < 0)
		twl_remove(client);
free:
	if (status < 0)
		platform_device_unregister(pdev);
    ...
}

Does this bypass leak manually requested IRQ domains and unmanaged dummy I2C
devices by skipping twl_remove()?

I don't understand how it was compiled. const void * != void * in C and can't
be implicitly covered, if I am not mistaken. So, this patch heavily should
break the build. What did I miss?

It's an option. The other option (and often we go this way) is to introduce
a new name, convert users, convert the name back.

See, for example, how GPIO subsystem changed a proto of .set() callback.

With this, rather standard, way you will fulfill the above requirement
automatically. Also you won't need treewide change to bother everybody
with this. And also increase the chances to go in (maybe in a few releases
span).

I think I missed a lot of those drivers while compiling, probably
because I built it for my target hardware instead of doing a
COMPILE_TEST.
