Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y] ALSA: x86: hdmi: fix chmap array missing terminator entry
Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2026 12:53:50 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106175313.451723-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026110407-contour-racing-fa1a@gregkh>

[ Upstream commit f5e1a9a3fddab8421416b68bb132ae9626d07156 ]
had_build_channel_allocation_map() allocates a single struct
snd_pcm_chmap_elem via kzalloc() and stores it as
intelhaddata->chmap->chmap. struct snd_pcm_chmap.chmap is expected to
be a zero-terminated array (see snd_pcm_std_chmaps[]), but
had_register_chmap_ctls() never overrides the TLV callback installed
by snd_pcm_add_chmap_ctls(), so the generic pcm_chmap_ctl_tlv() from
ALSA core is left in place.
pcm_chmap_ctl_tlv() is reachable by any local user via
SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_TLV_READ on the "Playback Channel Map" control and
walks the array with "for (map = info->chmap; map->channels; map++)".
Since the driver's single element is never terminated, this walks
past the allocation. The same pointer is also freed on hot-unplug and
rebuilt on hot-plug under intelhaddata->mutex, while the TLV callback
runs under card->controls_rwsem without that mutex, so the walk can
also race a concurrent free of the array.
Fix this by allocating a second, zeroed element so the array is
properly terminated, and by dropping the inherited TLV callback
entirely at registration time, since the driver never implements one
of its own.
