It's possible for the FW init sequence to fail, which will trigger a device cleanup sequence in mwifiex_fw_dpc(). This sequence can race with device suspend() or remove() (e.g., reboot or unbind), and can trigger use-after-free issues. Currently, this driver attempts (poorly) to synchronize remove() using a semaphore, but it doesn't protect some of the critical sections properly. Particularly, we grab a pointer to the adapter struct (card->adapter) without checking if it's being freed or not. We later do a NULL check on the adapter, but that doesn't work if the adapter was freed. Also note that the PCIe interface driver doesn't ever set card->adapter to NULL, so even if we get the synchronization right, we still might try to redo the cleanup in ->remove(), even if the FW init failure sequence already did it. This patch replaces the static semaphore with a per-device completion struct, and uses that completion to synchronize the remove() thread with the mwifiex_fw_dpc(). A future patch will utilize this completion to synchronize the suspend() thread as well. Signed-off-by: NBrian Norris <briannorris@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: NKalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
