Subject: [PATCH v2] ALSA: pcm: Serialize and check HW_REFINE ioctls
Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2026 18:52:33 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <pm-pmb-b3f7b3445bb11aaa9a7b-v3-371faafc2599ec7fa136@gmail.com> (raw)

Hardware refinement must reject disconnected streams before entering
their runtime constraint rules. The native ioctl checks the state at
the outer dispatch, before copying the parameters, while the compat
HW_REFINE32 path only checks that the runtime exists. Both call the
unlocked refinement helper without the buffer access lock used by
HW_PARAMS.

The BUFFER_BYTES rule keeps a substream pointer as its private payload.
A compat request can still enter that rule after component disconnect.
If component free overlaps its execution, the following order permits
a use-after-free read of buffer_bytes_max:

  Component cleanup                 Compat HW_REFINE
  -----------------                 ----------------
  snd_pcm_dev_disconnect()
    Runtime -> DISCONNECTED
                                    Enter compat ioctl
                                    snd_pcm_hw_refine()
                                      Enter BUFFER_BYTES rule
  snd_device_free()
    snd_pcm_free_stream()
      Free substream
                                      Read buffer_bytes_max

Add a wrapper that acquires the existing buffer access lock and checks
the same allowed states and mmap conditions as HW_PARAMS before running
the refinement rules. Share the state checker with snd_pcm_hw_params()
and use the wrapper for native, compat and legacy PCM HW_REFINE ioctls.
This rejects the described entry after disconnect and serializes these
refinement calls with other buffer-locked parameter operations.

Keep the original snd_pcm_hw_refine() helper for existing internal
callers, including snd_pcm_hw_params() which already holds the buffer
lock, to avoid locking that mutex recursively.

KASAN report as below:

Changes in v2:
- Use the buffer-lock and state-check wrapper for all three PCM HW_REFINE
  ioctl paths, as Takashi suggested.
- Share the HW_PARAMS state check and keep the original helper for existing
  locked callers.
