Yuho Choi 1ff3f528e6 rpmsg: char: Fix use-after-free on probe error path
rpmsg_chrdev_probe() stores the newly allocated eptdev in the default
endpoint's priv pointer before calling rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_add(). If
rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_add() then fails, its error path frees eptdev while
the default endpoint may still dispatch callbacks with the stale priv
pointer.

Avoid publishing eptdev through the default endpoint until
rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_add() succeeds. Messages received before the priv
pointer is published should be ignored by rpmsg_ept_cb(). Flow-control
updates can hit rpmsg_ept_flow_cb() in the same window, so make both
callbacks return success when priv is NULL.

Danilo Krummrich 55ced13c42 rpmsg: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.

Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.

Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]

Linus Torvalds bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
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 *".

Gui-Dong Han 42023d4b6d rpmsg: core: fix race in driver_override_show() and use core helper
The driver_override_show function reads the driver_override string
without holding the device_lock. However, the store function modifies
and frees the string while holding the device_lock. This creates a race
condition where the string can be freed by the store function while
being read by the show function, leading to a use-after-free.

To fix this, replace the rpmsg_string_attr macro with explicit show and
store functions. The new driver_override_store uses the standard
driver_set_override helper. Since the introduction of
driver_set_override, the comments in include/linux/rpmsg.h have stated
that this helper must be used to set or clear driver_override, but the
implementation was not updated until now.

Because driver_set_override modifies and frees the string while holding
the device_lock, the new driver_override_show now correctly holds the
device_lock during the read operation to prevent the race.

Additionally, since rpmsg_string_attr has only ever been used for
driver_override, removing the macro simplifies the code.

Srinivas Kandagatla a53e356df5 rpmsg: glink: fix rpmsg device leak
While testing rpmsg-char interface it was noticed that duplicate sysfs
entries are getting created and below warning is noticed.

Reason for this is that we are leaking rpmsg device pointer, setting it
null without actually unregistering device.
Any further attempts to unregister fail because rpdev is NULL,
resulting in a leak.

Fix this by unregistering rpmsg device before removing its reference
from rpmsg channel.

Claudiu Beznea 214ae22e6d rpmsg: core: Drop dev_pm_domain_detach() call
Starting with commit f99508074e ("PM: domains: Detach on
device_unbind_cleanup()"), there is no longer a need to call
dev_pm_domain_detach() in the bus remove function. The
device_unbind_cleanup() function now handles this to avoid
invoking devres cleanup handlers while the PM domain is
powered off, which could otherwise lead to failures as
described in the above-mentioned commit.

Drop the explicit dev_pm_domain_detach() call and rely instead
on the flags passed to dev_pm_domain_attach() to power off the
domain.

Andrew Davis 6e29c30d8d rpmsg: char: Export alias for RPMSG ID rpmsg-raw from table
Module aliases are used by userspace to identify the correct module to
load for a detected hardware. The currently supported RPMSG device IDs for
this module include "rpmsg-raw", but the module alias is "rpmsg_chrdev".

Use the helper macro MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(rpmsg) to export the correct
supported IDs. And while here, to keep backwards compatibility we also add
the other ID "rpmsg_chrdev" so that it is also still exported as an alias.

This has the side benefit of adding support for some legacy firmware
which still uses the original "rpmsg_chrdev" ID. This was the ID used for
this driver before it was upstreamed (as reflected by the module alias).

Claudiu Beznea d42c7c6fd6 PM: domains: Add flags to specify power on attach/detach
Calling dev_pm_domain_attach()/dev_pm_domain_detach() in bus driver
probe/remove functions can affect system behavior when the drivers
attached to the bus use devres-managed resources. Since devres actions
may need to access device registers, calling dev_pm_domain_detach() too
early, i.e., before these actions complete, can cause failures on some
systems. One such example is Renesas RZ/G3S SoC-based platforms.

If the device clocks are managed via PM domains, invoking
dev_pm_domain_detach() in the bus driver's remove function removes the
device's clocks from the PM domain, preventing any subsequent
pm_runtime_resume*() calls from enabling those clocks.

The second argument of dev_pm_domain_attach() specifies whether the PM
domain should be powered on during attachment. Likewise, the second
argument of dev_pm_domain_detach() indicates whether the domain should be
powered off during detachment.

Upcoming changes address the issue described above (initially for the
platform bus only) by deferring the call to dev_pm_domain_detach() until
after devres_release_all() in device_unbind_cleanup(). The detach_power_off
field in struct dev_pm_info stores the detach power off info from the
second argument of dev_pm_domain_attach().

Because there are cases where the device's PM domain power-on/off behavior
must be conditional (e.g., in i2c_device_probe()), the patch introduces
PD_FLAG_ATTACH_POWER_ON and PD_FLAG_DETACH_POWER_OFF flags to be passed
to dev_pm_domain_attach().

Finally, dev_pm_domain_attach() and its users are updated to use the newly
introduced PD_FLAG_ATTACH_POWER_ON and PD_FLAG_DETACH_POWER_OFF macros.

This change is preparatory.

Thomas Weißschuh b0dc512ab7 remoteproc: Don't use %pK through printk
In the past %pK was preferable to %p as it would not leak raw pointer
values into the kernel log.
Since commit ad67b74d24 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p")
the regular %p has been improved to avoid this issue.
Furthermore, restricted pointers ("%pK") were never meant to be used
through printk(). They can still unintentionally leak raw pointers or
acquire sleeping locks in atomic contexts.

Switch to the regular pointer formatting which is safer and
easier to reason about.
There are still a few users of %pK left, but these use it through seq_file,
for which its usage is safe.

typedef int (*device_match_t)(struct device *dev, const void *data);
with the following reasons:

- Protect caller's match data @*data which is for comparison and lookup
  and the API does not actually need to modify @*data.

- Make the API's parameters (@match)() and @data have the same type as
  all of other device finding APIs (bus|class|driver)_find_device().

- All kinds of existing device match functions can be directly taken
  as the API's argument, they were exported by driver core.

Constify the API and adapt for various existing usages.

BTW, various subsystem changes are squashed into this commit to meet
'git bisect' requirement, and this commit has the minimal and simplest
changes to complement squashing shortcoming, and that may bring extra

Linus Torvalds e70140ba0d Get rid of 'remove_new' relic from platform driver struct
The continual trickle of small conversion patches is grating on me, and
is really not helping.  Just get rid of the 'remove_new' member
function, which is just an alias for the plain 'remove', and had a
comment to that effect:

  /*
   * .remove_new() is a relic from a prototype conversion of .remove().
   * New drivers are supposed to implement .remove(). Once all drivers are
   * converted to not use .remove_new any more, it will be dropped.
   */

This was just a tree-wide 'sed' script that replaced '.remove_new' with
'.remove', with some care taken to turn a subsequent tab into two tabs
to make things line up.

I did do some minimal manual whitespace adjustment for places that used
spaces to line things up.

Then I just removed the old (sic) .remove_new member function, and this
is the end result.  No more unnecessary conversion noise.
