Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] USB: serial: fix port tear down use-after-free
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2026 17:45:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260821154546.118809-1-johan@kernel.org> (raw)

When addressing a port probe ordering issue in digi_acceleport recently
I realised that we have a corresponding general problem during
disconnect, but I didn't have time to address it straight away.

Now syzbot has managed to trigger one of its symptoms and people have
already started submitting incomplete band-aids so here is a proper
fix.

When testing the fix I also noticed that we have an ordering issue when
deregistering drivers that can result in similar use-after-free.

Johan


Changes in v2:
 - fix dynamic id driver deregistration race (new)
 - remove "new_id" attributes before deregistering USB driver
 - use iterator for driver deregistration (new)
