ARM: 9229/1: amba: Fix use-after-free in amba_read_periphid()
After commit f2d3b9a46e0e ("ARM: 9220/1: amba: Remove deferred device addition"), it became possible for amba_read_periphid() to be invoked concurrently from two threads for a particular AMBA device. Consider the case where a thread (T0) is registering an AMBA driver, and searching for all of the devices it can match with on the AMBA bus. Suppose that another thread (T1) is executing the deferred probe work, and is searching through all of the AMBA drivers on the bus for a driver that matches a particular AMBA device. Assume that both threads begin operating on the same AMBA device and the device's peripheral ID is still unknown. In this scenario, the amba_match() function will be invoked for the same AMBA device by both threads, which means amba_read_periphid() can also be invoked by both threads, and both threads will be able to manipulate the AMBA device's pclk pointer without any synchronization. It's possible that one thread will initialize the pclk pointer, then the other thread will re-initialize it, overwriting the previous value, and both will race to free the same pclk, resulting in a use-after-free for whichever thread frees the pclk last. Add a lock per AMBA device to synchronize the handling with detecting the peripheral ID to avoid the use-after-free scenario. The following KFENCE bug report helped detect this problem: ================================================================== BUG: KFENCE: use-after-free read in clk_disable+0x14/0x34 Use-after-free read at 0x(ptrval) (in kfence-#19): clk_disable+0x14/0x34 amba_read_periphid+0xdc/0x134 amba_match+0x3c/0x84 __driver_attach+0x20/0x158 bus_for_each_dev+0x74/0xc0 bus_add_driver+0x154/0x1e8 driver_register+0x88/0x11c do_one_initcall+0x8c/0x2fc kernel_init_freeable+0x190/0x220 kernel_init+0x10/0x108 ret_from_fork+0x14/0x3c 0x0 kfence-#19: 0x(ptrval)-0x(ptrval), size=36, cache=kmalloc-64 allocated by task 8 on cpu 0 at 11.629931s: clk_hw_create_clk+0x38/0x134 amba_get_enable_pclk+0x10/0x68 amba_read_periphid+0x28/0x134 amba_match+0x3c/0x84 __device_attach_driver+0x2c/0xc4 bus_for_each_drv+0x80/0xd0 __device_attach+0xb0/0x1f0 bus_probe_device+0x88/0x90 deferred_probe_work_func+0x8c/0xc0 process_one_work+0x23c/0x690 worker_thread+0x34/0x488 kthread+0xd4/0xfc ret_from_fork+0x14/0x3c 0x0 freed by task 8 on cpu 0 at 11.630095s: amba_read_periphid+0xec/0x134 amba_match+0x3c/0x84 __device_attach_driver+0x2c/0xc4 bus_for_each_drv+0x80/0xd0 __device_attach+0xb0/0x1f0 bus_probe_device+0x88/0x90 deferred_probe_work_func+0x8c/0xc0 process_one_work+0x23c/0x690 worker_thread+0x34/0x488 kthread+0xd4/0xfc ret_from_fork+0x14/0x3c 0x0 Cc: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@google.com> Cc: patches@armlinux.org.uk Fixes: f2d3b9a46e0e ("ARM: 9220/1: amba: Remove deferred device addition") Reported-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Tested-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Isaac J.
