Detail
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: mcp23s08: Fix sleeping in atomic context due to regmap locking If a device uses MCP23xxx IO expander to receive IRQs, the following bug can happen: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context We observed the problem while experimenting with a touchscreen driver which used MCP23017 IO expander (I2C). The regmap in the pinctrl-mcp23s08 driver uses a mutex for protection from concurrent accesses, which is the default for regmaps without .fast_io, .disable_locking, etc. mcp23s08_irq_set_type() calls regmap_update_bits_base(), and the latter locks the mutex. However, __setup_irq() locks desc->lock spinlock before calling these functions. As a result, the system tries to lock the mutex whole holding the spinlock. It seems, the internal regmap locks are not needed in this driver at all. mcp->lock seems to protect the regmap from concurrent accesses already, except, probably, in mcp_pinconf_get/set. mcp23s08_irq_set_type() and mcp23s08_irq_mask/unmask() are called under chip_bus_lock(), which calls mcp23s08_irq_bus_lock(). The latter takes mcp->lock and enables regmap caching, so that the potentially slow I2C accesses are deferred until chip_bus_unlock(). The accesses to the regmap from mcp23s08_probe_one() do not need additional locking. In all remaining places where the regmap is accessed, except mcp_pinconf_get/set(), the driver already takes mcp->lock. This patch adds locking in mcp_pinconf_get/set() and disables internal locking in the regmap config. Among other things, it fixes the sleeping in atomic context described above. |
