Subject: [PATCH v6 04/15] crypto: ti - Fix use-after-free of dev_data on DTHEv2 driver removal
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 16:55:22 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930112533.1593952-5-t-pratham@ti.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930112533.1593952-1-t-pratham@ti.com>

Each *_init_tfm() caches a pointer to the per-instance struct dthe_data
in its transform context (ctx->dev_data), but never takes a reference on
it. If there are tfms in progress when dthe_remove() is called, the devm
allocated dev_data gets freed. Then ctx->dev_data will point to a memory
that has been freed.

Move dthe_data to req_ctx structs of algorithms, and store the device
pointer in tfm_ctx. Add a refcnt to struct dthe_data, which atomically
counts the number of requests enqueued in the crypto engine queue which
reference the dthe_data object.

A waitqueue waits on this atomic counter to get back to zero in
dthe_remove() before doing the driver teardown.

Fixes: 52f641bc63a46 ("crypto: ti - Add driver for DTHE V2 AES Engine (ECB, CBC)")
