Subject: [PATCH 1/1] usb: xhci: Fix NULL pointer dereference on certain command aborts
Date: Tue, 3 Dec 2024 20:52:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241203205249.513f1153@foxbook> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241203205123.05b32413@foxbook>

xhci_handle_stopped_cmd_ring() attempts to restart the command ring if
there are pending TRBs on it, which it detects by comparing the enqueue
and dequeue pointers for equality. It assumes that pending TRBs imply a
pending command, and blindly dereferences cur_cmd. This can be wrong.

If a command is queued to the final usable TRB of a ring segment, the
enqueue pointer is advanced to the subsequent link TRB and no further.
If the command is later aborted, when the abort completion is handled
the dequeue pointer is advanced to the first TRB of the next segment.

If no further commands are queued, the pointers stay this way and then
xhci_handle_stopped_cmd_ring() is called by xhci_abort_cmd_ring() with
NULL cur_cmd, which triggers cur_cmd dereference as described above.

Fix this by omitting timer setup if cur_cmd is NULL. Leave the rest
unchanged, including ringing the doorbell each time the ring pointers
aren't equal. An unnecessary doorbell ring should be harmless.

This is probably Bug 219532, but no confirmation has been received.
