[PATCH v4 01/19] media: rc: Ensure registered is cleared in error path

[PATCH v4 01/19] media: rc: Ensure registered is cleared in error path

[Sean Young]

If rc_register_device() fails, ensure that registered is not set to true.
If lirc_register() succeeded, then userspace could have an open file
descriptor open. This leads to a use-after-free.

Is the guard actually needed?

Same question here. I think the real fix is setting dev->registered to
false, but I'm not sure the guard makes a difference.

The commit log mentions nothing about that change either.

Yes, we read registered under lock in e.g. in lirc_open(). It s
racey without.

You are right, the commit message needs to mention this.

[PATCH v4 02/19] media: rc: Ensure that rc_unregister_device() does not free input device

[Sean Young]

During or after rc_unregister_device(), IR may still be reported which
results in a input event being reported. This could result in a null
pointer deref in rc_keydown() or a use-after-free of the input device if
the pointer was read before it is set to NULL.

[PATCH v4 03/19] media: rc: Fix ABBA deadlock by making locks more fine grained

[Sean Young]

The ir_raw_event_unregister() function takes the ir_raw_handler_lock
first and then the rc_dev->lock. Other functions like change_protocol
do this in the reverse order.

This means that an ir decoder module unload and writing to the protocol
sysfs file can cause a deadlock.

ir_raw_handler_lock protects the client list, amongst other things.
Split this out into a separate lock so we can ensure the locking
order is always the same.

[PATCH v4 04/19] media: rc: Add missing locking for keymap

[Sean Young]

When the rc_map for an rc_dev gets updated, locking is required but is
missing in places. A concurrent scancode lookup and a call to
rc_{register,unregistered}_device() could result in a use-after-free;
this could happen if IR is decoded during those function calls.

We also fix some ugliness like open-coded krealloc() and removing the
pointless alloc member of rc_map.

Add lockdep assertions where locks are required.

I would recommend splitting off the krealloc changes etc. into a separate
patch. It made it hard to review this patch with that change thrown in.

It doesn't hurt to keep a comment mentioning that these are the
min and max number of entries.

In general I found it a bit confusing that 'size' refers to number
of elements in variable names, when it is usually the number of
entries. Perhaps something to address in a future patch.

You're right, this commit has become to big and needs splitting.

That is confusing. Let me re-write it.

[PATCH v4 05/19] media: rc: Fix race between bpf(BPG_PROG_ATTACH) and device unregister

[Sean Young]

Mark the device as unregistered before tearing down raw IR/bpf
state, so that racing bpf(BPF_PROG_{ATTACH,DETACH,QUERY}) calls
cannot slip in between ir_raw_event_unregister() completing and
dev->registered being cleared.

[PATCH v4 06/19] media: rc: mce_kbd: Fix inconsistent locking of keylock

[Sean Young]

data->keylock is taken with spin_lock() in ir_mce_kbd_decode(), which
runs in the raw IR decode kthread with local interrupts enabled, but
with spin_lock_irqsave() in mce_kbd_rx_timeout(), the rx_timeout timer
callback, which runs in softirq context.

If the decode kthread is holding keylock via spin_lock() when a timer
interrupt fires on the same CPU and the softirq runs
mce_kbd_rx_timeout(), the softirq spins forever waiting for a lock
that only the now-preempted kthread can release, while the kthread
cannot run again until the softirq gives up the CPU. This deadlocks
the CPU.

[PATCH v4 07/19] media: ene_ir: Ensure teardown is done in the correct order

[Sean Young]

The timer can be re-armed from the irq, so ensure that the timers are
deleted after the irq and that we only free the rc device once we are
sure that the irq has been silenced.
