Subject: [39/40] usb: cdc-acm: Fix acm_tty_hangup() vs. acm_tty_close() race
Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2012 13:45:52 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120110214621.607398193@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120110214630.GA14384@kroah.com>
3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Thilo-Alexander Ginkel <thilo@ginkel.com>
[Not upstream as it was fixed differently for 3.3 with a much more
"intrusive" rework of the driver - gregkh]
There is a race condition involving acm_tty_hangup() and acm_tty_close()
where hangup() would attempt to access tty->driver_data without proper
locking and NULL checking after close() has potentially already set it
to NULL. One possibility to (sporadically) trigger this behavior is to
perform a suspend/resume cycle with a running WWAN data connection.
This patch addresses the issue by introducing a NULL check for
tty->driver_data in acm_tty_hangup() protected by open_mutex and exiting
gracefully when hangup() is invoked on a device that has already been
closed.
