soundwire: revisit driver bind/unbind and callbacks
In the SoundWire probe, we store a pointer from the driver ops into
the 'slave' structure. This can lead to kernel oopses when unbinding
codec drivers, e.g. with the following sequence to remove machine
driver and codec driver.
/sbin/modprobe -r snd_soc_sof_sdw
/sbin/modprobe -r snd_soc_rt711
The full details can be found in the BugLink below, for reference the
two following examples show different cases of driver ops/callbacks
being invoked after the driver .remove().

This was not detected earlier in Intel tests since the tests first
remove the parent PCI device and shut down the bus. The sequence
above is a corner case which keeps the bus operational but without a
driver bound.
While trying to solve this kernel oopses, it became clear that the
existing SoundWire bus does not deal well with the unbind case.
Commit 528be501b7d4a ("soundwire: sdw_slave: add probe_complete structure and new fields")
added a 'probed' status variable and a 'probe_complete'
struct completion. This status is however not reset on remove and
likewise the 'probe complete' is not re-initialized, so the
bind/unbind/bind test cases would fail. The timeout used before the
'update_status' callback was also a bad idea in hindsight, there
should really be no timing assumption as to if and when a driver is
bound to a device.
An initial draft was based on device_lock() and device_unlock() was
tested. This proved too complicated, with deadlocks created during the
suspend-resume sequences, which also use the same device_lock/unlock()
as the bind/unbind sequences. On a CometLake device, a bad DSDT/BIOS
caused spurious resumes and the use of device_lock() caused hangs
during suspend. After multiple weeks or testing and painful
reverse-engineering of deadlocks on different devices, we looked for
alternatives that did not interfere with the device core.
A bus notifier was used successfully to keep track of DRIVER_BOUND and
DRIVER_UNBIND events. This solved the bind-unbind-bind case in tests,
but it can still be defeated with a theoretical corner case where the
memory is freed by a .remove while the callback is in use. The
notifier only helps make sure the driver callbacks are valid, but not
that the memory allocated in probe remains valid while the callbacks
are invoked.
This patch suggests the introduction of a new 'sdw_dev_lock' mutex
protecting probe/remove and all driver callbacks. Since this mutex is
'local' to SoundWire only, it does not interfere with existing locks
and does not create deadlocks. In addition, this patch removes the
'probe_complete' completion, instead we directly invoke the
'update_status' from the probe routine. That removes any sort of
timing dependency and a much better support for the device/driver
model, the driver could be bound before the bus started, or eons after
the bus started and the hardware would be properly initialized in all
cases.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mld: avoid panic on init failure
In case of an error during init, in_hw_restart will be set, but it will
never get cleared.
Instead, we will retry to init again, and then we will act like we are in a
restart when we are actually not.
This causes (among others) to a NULL pointer dereference when canceling
rx_omi::finished_work, that was not even initialized, because we thought
that we are in hw_restart.
Set in_hw_restart to true only if the fw is running, then we know that
FW was loaded successfully and we are not going to the retry loop. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/connector: only call HDMI audio helper plugged cb if non-null
On driver remove, sound/soc/codecs/hdmi-codec.c calls the plugged_cb
with NULL as the callback function and codec_dev, as seen in its
hdmi_remove function.
The HDMI audio helper then happily tries calling said null function
pointer, and produces an Oops as a result.
Fix this by only executing the callback if fn is non-null. This means
the .plugged_cb and .plugged_cb_dev members still get appropriately
cleared. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: acpi: Prevent null pointer dereference in usb_acpi_add_usb4_devlink()
As demonstrated by the fix for update_port_device_state,
commit 12783c0b9e2c ("usb: core: Prevent null pointer dereference in update_port_device_state"),
usb_hub_to_struct_hub() can return NULL in certain scenarios,
such as during hub driver unbind or teardown race conditions,
even if the underlying usb_device structure exists.
Plus, all other places that call usb_hub_to_struct_hub() in the same file
do check for NULL return values.
If usb_hub_to_struct_hub() returns NULL, the subsequent access to
hub->ports[udev->portnum - 1] will cause a null pointer dereference. |

watchdog: lenovo_se30_wdt: Fix possible devm_ioremap() NULL pointer dereference in lenovo_se30_wdt_probe()
devm_ioremap() returns NULL on error. Currently, lenovo_se30_wdt_probe()
does not check for this case, which results in a NULL pointer
dereference.
Add NULL check after devm_ioremap() to prevent this issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phy: clear phydev->devlink when the link is deleted
There is a potential crash issue when disabling and re-enabling the
network port. When disabling the network port, phy_detach() calls
device_link_del() to remove the device link, but it does not clear
phydev->devlink, so phydev->devlink is not a NULL pointer. Then the
network port is re-enabled, but if phy_attach_direct() fails before
calling device_link_add(), the code jumps to the "error" label and
calls phy_detach(). Since phydev->devlink retains the old value from
the previous attach/detach cycle, device_link_del() uses the old value,
which accesses a NULL pointer and causes a crash. The simplified crash
log is as follows.
[ 24.702421] Call trace:
[ 24.704856] device_link_put_kref+0x20/0x120
[ 24.709124] device_link_del+0x30/0x48

[ 24.725140] phylink_of_phy_connect+0x1c/0x34
Therefore, phydev->devlink needs to be cleared when the device link is
deleted. |
| A flaw was found in Shim when an error happened while creating a new ESL variable. If Shim fails to create the new variable, it tries to print an error message to the user; however, the number of parameters used by the logging function doesn't match the format string used by it, leading to a crash under certain circumstances. |

power: supply: max77705: Fix workqueue error handling in probe
The create_singlethread_workqueue() doesn't return error pointers, it
returns NULL. Also cleanup the workqueue on the error paths. |
| A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in dbFree in fs/jfs/jfs_dmap.c in the journaling file system (JFS) in the Linux Kernel. This issue may allow a local attacker to crash the system due to a missing sanity check. |
| A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability was found in netlink_dump. This issue can occur when the Netlink socket receives the message(sendmsg) for the XFRM_MSG_GETSA, XFRM_MSG_GETPOLICY type message, and the DUMP flag is set and can cause a denial of service or possibly another unspecified impact. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although it is unlikely. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fpga: fix potential null pointer deref in fpga_mgr_test_img_load_sgt()
fpga_mgr_test_img_load_sgt() allocates memory for sgt using
kunit_kzalloc() however it does not check if the allocation failed.
It then passes sgt to sg_alloc_table(), which passes it to
__sg_alloc_table(). This function calls memset() on sgt in an attempt to
zero it out. If the allocation fails then sgt will be NULL and the
memset will trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by checking the allocation with KUNIT_ASSERT_NOT_ERR_OR_NULL(). |

Root cause is that numgrps is set to 0, and ZERO_SIZE_PTR is returned from
kcalloc(), and later ZERO_SIZE_PTR will be deferenced.
Fix the problem by checking numgrps first in group_cpus_evenly(), and
return NULL directly if numgrps is zero.
