Subject: [PATCH] PCI/DOE: Fix double free of a duplicate feature's sysfs name
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 12:50:35 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928035035.252394-1-donggeunyoo.kernel@gmail.com> (raw)

When a DOE feature is reported twice, sysfs_add_file_to_group() fails
with -EEXIST for the second copy and pci_doe_sysfs_feature_populate()
frees that attribute's name, but leaves the pointer in place.
pci_doe_sysfs_feature_remove() frees every name again when the device
is removed, or when a later feature fails to register, so the name is
freed twice:

  BUG: KASAN: double-free in pci_doe_sysfs_feature_remove+0x117/0x1b0
  Call Trace:
   kfree+0x11a/0x420
   pci_doe_sysfs_feature_remove+0x117/0x1b0
   pci_doe_sysfs_teardown+0x90/0xf0
   pci_remove_bus_device+0x128/0x2e0
   pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device_locked+0x1d/0x30
   remove_store+0xd2/0xf0

Leave the name to pci_doe_sysfs_feature_remove(), which already frees
it for every entry.

Tested under QEMU (q35, cxl-type3, KASAN) on 72d3fcf802c4. The device
reports its CDAT feature once, so a test-only change either registers
its DOE capability as a second mailbox or inserts the feature N extra
times into one:

  case                                   before           after
  no duplicate, remove                   no report        no report
  no duplicate, a name fails at probe    no report        no report
  two mailboxes, remove                  double free      no report
  two mailboxes, 3 remove/rescan cycles  3 double frees   no report
  3 duplicates in one mailbox, remove    3 double frees   no report
  2 duplicates, a later name fails,      2 double frees   no report
    probed twice

The doe_features listing is the same before and after in every case.
