PM: runtime: Fix a race condition related to device removal

2026-03-16T19:33:09Z

The following code in pm_runtime_work() may dereference the dev->parent pointer after the parent device has been freed: /* Maybe the parent is now able to suspend. */ if (parent && !parent->power.ignore_children) { spin_unlock(&dev->power.lock); spin_lock(&parent->power.lock); rpm_idle(parent, RPM_ASYNC); spin_unlock(&parent->power.lock); spin_lock(&dev->power.lock); } Fix this by inserting a flush_work() call in pm_runtime_remove(). Without this patch blktest block/001 triggers the following complaint sporadically: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in lock_acquire+0x70/0x160 Read of size 1 at addr ffff88812bef7198 by task kworker/u553:1/3081 Workqueue: pm pm_runtime_work Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x61/0x80 print_address_description.constprop.0+0x8b/0x310 print_report+0xfd/0x1d7 kasan_report+0xd8/0x1d0 __kasan_check_byte+0x42/0x60 lock_acquire.part.0+0x38/0x230 lock_acquire+0x70/0x160 _raw_spin_lock+0x36/0x50 rpm_suspend+0xc6a/0xfe0 rpm_idle+0x578/0x770 pm_runtime_work+0xee/0x120 process_one_work+0xde3/0x1410 worker_thread+0x5eb/0xfe0 kthread+0x37b/0x480 ret_from_fork+0x6cb/0x920 ret_from_fork_asm+0x11/0x20 Allocated by task 4314: kasan_save_stack+0x2a/0x50 kasan_save_track+0x18/0x40 kasan_save_alloc_info+0x3d/0x50 __kasan_kmalloc+0xa0/0xb0 __kmalloc_noprof+0x311/0x990 scsi_alloc_target+0x122/0xb60 [scsi_mod] __scsi_scan_target+0x101/0x460 [scsi_mod] scsi_scan_channel+0x179/0x1c0 [scsi_mod] scsi_scan_host_selected+0x259/0x2d0 [scsi_mod] store_scan+0x2d2/0x390 [scsi_mod] dev_attr_store+0x43/0x80 sysfs_kf_write+0xde/0x140 kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x3ef/0x670 vfs_write+0x506/0x1470 ksys_write+0xfd/0x230 __x64_sys_write+0x76/0xc0 x64_sys_call+0x213/0x1810 do_syscall_64+0xee/0xfc0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53 Freed by task 4314: kasan_save_stack+0x2a/0x50 kasan_save_track+0x18/0x40 kasan_save_free_info+0x3f/0x50 __kasan_slab_free+0x67/0x80 kfree+0x225/0x6c0 scsi_target_dev_release+0x3d/0x60 [scsi_mod] device_release+0xa3/0x220 kobject_cleanup+0x105/0x3a0 kobject_put+0x72/0xd0 put_device+0x17/0x20 scsi_device_dev_release+0xacf/0x12c0 [scsi_mod] device_release+0xa3/0x220 kobject_cleanup+0x105/0x3a0 kobject_put+0x72/0xd0 put_device+0x17/0x20 scsi_device_put+0x7f/0xc0 [scsi_mod] sdev_store_delete+0xa5/0x120 [scsi_mod] dev_attr_store+0x43/0x80 sysfs_kf_write+0xde/0x140 kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x3ef/0x670 vfs_write+0x506/0x1470 ksys_write+0xfd/0x230 __x64_sys_write+0x76/0xc0 x64_sys_call+0x213/0x1810 Reported-by: Ming Lei Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZxdNvLNI8QaOfD2d@fedora/ Reported-by: syzbot+6c905ab800f20cf4086c@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/68c13942.050a0220.2ff435.000b.GAE@google.com/ Fixes: 5e928f77a09a ("PM: Introduce core framework for run-time PM of I/O devices (rev. 17)") Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260312182720.2776083-1-bvanassche@acm.org Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Revert "driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()"

2026-03-03T12:12:42Z

This reverts commit dc23806a7c47 ("driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()") and commit 289b14592cef ("driver core: fix inverted "locked" suffix of driver_match_device()"). While technically correct, there is a major downside to this approach: When a device is already present in the system and a driver is registered on the same bus, we iterate over all devices registered on this bus to see if one of them matches. If we come across an already bound one where the corresponding driver crashed while holding the device lock (e.g. in probe()) we can't make any progress anymore. However, drivers are typically the least tested code in the kernel and hence it is a case that is likely to happen regularly. Besides hurting developer ergonomics, it potentially decreases chances of shutting things down cleanly and obtaining logs in production environments as well [1]. This came up in the context of a firewire bug, which only in combination with the reverted commit, caused the machine to hang [2]. Additionally, it was observed in [3]. Thus, revert commit dc23806a7c47 ("driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()") and add a brief note clarifying that an implementer of struct bus_type must not expect match() to be called with the device lock held.

device property: Allow secondary lookup in fwnode_get_next_child_node()

2026-02-22T23:10:31Z

When device_get_child_node_count() got split to the fwnode and device respective APIs, the fwnode didn't inherit the ability to traverse over the secondary fwnode. Hence any user, that switches from device to fwnode API misses this feature. In particular, this was revealed by the commit 1490cbb9dbfd ("device property: Split fwnode_get_child_node_count()") that effectively broke the GPIO enumeration on Intel Galileo boards. Fix this by moving the secondary lookup from device to fwnode API. Note, in general no device_*() API should go into the depth of the fwnode implementation.

Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments

2026-02-22T04:03:00Z

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28Z

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook
