[RFC PATCHv2 11/19] power_supply: Change ownership from driver to core

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Change the ownership of power_supply structure from each driver
implementing the class to the power supply core.

Each driver provides the implementation of power supply. However it
should not be the owner of 'power_supply' instance because it is exposed
by core to other subsystems with power_supply_get_by_name().  These
other subsystems have no knowledge when the driver will unregister the
power supply. This leads to several issues when driver is unbound -
mostly because user of power supply accesses freed memory.

Instead let the core own the instance of struct 'power_supply'.  Other
users of this power supply will still access valid memory because it
will be freed when device reference count reaches 0. Currently this
means "it will leak" but power_supply_put() call in next patches will
solve it.

This is a partial way of solving invalid memory references in following race
condition scenario:

Thread 1: charger manager
Thread 2: power supply driver, used by charger manager

THREAD 1 (charger manager)         THREAD 2 (power supply driver)
==========================         ==============================
psy = power_supply_get_by_name()
                                   Driver unbind, .remove
                                     power_supply_unregister()
                                     Device fully removed
psy->get_property()

The 'get_property' call is executed in invalid context because the driver was
unbound and struct 'power_supply' memory was freed.

This could be observed easily with charger manager driver (here compiled
with max17040 fuel gauge):
