[PATCH v3 1/6] thermal: core: Fix thermal zone governor cleanup issues
Posted by Rafael J. Wysocki 2 months, 1 week ago
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

If thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips() fails after adding
a thermal governor to the thermal zone being registered, the
governor is not removed from it as appropriate which may lead to
a memory leak, so address this by adding the governor cleanup to
the rollback path.

In turn, thermal_zone_device_unregister() calls thermal_set_governor()
without acquiring the thermal zone lock beforehand which may race with
a governor update via sysfs and may lead to a use-after-free in that
case, so address it by placing the cleanup thermal_set_governor()
call after the wait_for_completion() one, which reflects the
registration error path ordering.

Fixes: e33df1d2f3a0 ("thermal: let governors have private data for each thermal zone")
