[PATCH v2] sound/hda: Add NULL check to component match callback function
Posted by Won Chung 4 years, 2 months ago
Component match callback function needs to check if expected data is
passed to it. Without this check, it can cause a NULL pointer
dereference when another driver registers a component before i915
drivers have their component master fully bind.

Fixes: 7b882fe3e3e8b ("ALSA: hda - handle multiple i915 device instances")

You rather need to add "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" line to the patch
itself (around sign-off block), not actually Cc'ing the mail.
I edited manually, but please do it so at the next time.

Although I applied the patch as-is now, I wonder...

Can NULL dev->driver be really seen?  I thought the components are
added by the drivers, hence they ought to have the driver field set.
But there can be corner cases I overlooked.


thanks,

Takashi

Hi Takashi,

When I try using component_add in a different driver (usb4 in my
case), I think dev->driver here is NULL because the i915 drivers do
not have their component master fully bound when this new component is
registered. When I test it, it seems to be causing a crash.

Would it be okay for me to resend a new patch with the flags
corrected? I have mistakenly added Heikki and Mika as "Signed-off-by"
instead of "Suggested-by". I am sorry for that.

Thanks,
Won

Hm, from where component_add*() is called?  Basically dev->driver must
be already set before the corresponding driver gets bound at
__driver_probe_deviec().  So, if the device is added to component from
the corresponding driver's probe, dev->driver must be non-NULL.

Ah that's bad.  I'll reset the branch, then.  Please resubmit
properly.


thanks,

Takashi
