Subject: [PATCH] wifi: rtw88: schedule rx work after everything is set up
Date: Mon, 27 May 2024 19:01:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240527170137.455671-1-marcin.slusarz@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Marcin Ślusarz <mslusarz@renau.com>

Right now it's possible to hit NULL pointer dereference in
rtw_rx_fill_rx_status on hw object and/or its fields because
initialization routine can start getting USB replies before
rtw_dev is fully setup.

The stack trace looks like this:

rtw_rx_fill_rx_status
rtw8821c_query_rx_desc
rtw_usb_rx_handler
...
queue_work
rtw_usb_read_port_complete
...
usb_submit_urb
rtw_usb_rx_resubmit
rtw_usb_init_rx
rtw_usb_probe

So while we do the async stuff rtw_usb_probe continues and calls
rtw_register_hw, which does all kinds of initialization (e.g.
via ieee80211_register_hw) that rtw_rx_fill_rx_status relies on.

Fix this by moving the first usb_submit_urb after everything
is set up.

For me, this bug manifested as:
[    8.893177] rtw_8821cu 1-1:1.2: band wrong, packet dropped
[    8.910904] rtw_8821cu 1-1:1.2: hw->conf.chandef.chan NULL in rtw_rx_fill_rx_status
because I'm using Larry's backport of rtw88 driver with the NULL
checks in rtw_rx_fill_rx_status.

This should fix:
