Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] gpiolib: Fix Oops in gpiod_direction_input_nonotify()
Date: Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:17:19 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0f3ea3f6-8ae3-4352-b790-de0642edc4a2@stanley.mountain> (raw)

The gpiod_direction_input_nonotify() function is supposed to return zero
if the direction for the pin is input.  But instead it accidentally
returns GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_IN (1) which will be cast into an ERR_PTR()
in gpiochip_request_own_desc().  The callers dereference it and it leads
to a crash.

I changed gpiod_direction_output_raw_commit() just for consistency but
returning GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_OUT (0) is fine.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: 9d846b1aebbe ("gpiolib: check the return value of gpio_chip::get_direction()")
