      i2c: core: fix NULL pointer dereference under race condition · 147b36d5
      Vladimir Zapolskiy 提交于
      Race condition between registering an I2C device driver and
      deregistering an I2C adapter device which is assumed to manage that
      I2C device may lead to a NULL pointer dereference due to the
      uninitialized list head of driver clients.
      
      The root cause of the issue is that the I2C bus may know about the
      registered device driver and thus it is matched by bus_for_each_drv(),
      but the list of clients is not initialized and commonly it is NULL,
      because I2C device drivers define struct i2c_driver as static and
      clients field is expected to be initialized by I2C core:
      
        i2c_register_driver()             i2c_del_adapter()
          driver_register()                 ...
            bus_add_driver()                ...
              ...                           bus_for_each_drv(..., __process_removed_adapter)
            ...                               i2c_do_del_adapter()
          ...                                   list_for_each_entry_safe(..., &driver->clients, ...)
          INIT_LIST_HEAD(&driver->clients);
      
      To solve the problem it is sufficient to do clients list head
      initialization before calling driver_register().
      
      The problem was found while using an I2C device driver with a sluggish
      registration routine on a bus provided by a physically detachable I2C
      master controller, but practically the oops may be reproduced under
      the race between arbitraty I2C device driver registration and managing
      I2C bus device removal e.g. by unbinding the latter over sysfs:
      
      % echo 21a4000.i2c > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/imx-i2c/unbind
        Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
