[PATCH v4 00/20] power_supply: Allow safe usage of power supply

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

 



Hi,


The patchset fixes invalid memory accesses in certain race scenarios by
moving ownership of struct power_supply to the core. All drivers are
modified.


TLDR for driver and subsystem maintainers
=========================================
Two patches of patchset change power_supply_register() function so in
the same time they touch all drivers. I am kindly asking for acks,
review and help in testing.

Especially please take a look at:
 - patch 2: power_supply: Move run-time configuration to separate structure
 - patch 11: power_supply: Change ownership from driver to core

These are huge.


Problem to fix
==============
Patchset tries to fix invalid memory accesses occurring in following
race scenario:

Thread 1: charger manager, CONSUMER
Thread 2: power supply driver, PROVIDER

THREAD 1 (consumer)                THREAD 2 (provider)
===================                ===================
psy = power_supply_get_by_name()
                                   Driver unbind, .remove
                                     power_supply_unregister()
                                     Device fully removed
psy->get_property()

The consumer of power supply will reference invalid memory because
the provider already freed it.


The fix
=======
To properly fix the race the patchset:
1. Moves ownership of power_supply structure from driver (provider) to
   power supply core.
2. Adds power_supply_get_property()-like API for safe access by consumer.
3. Adds power_supply_put() which will reclaim memory.


I modifed all drivers I found. However I only compile tested them
(plus Smatch, Sparse and coccicheck). I did not test them on real
hardware (except max14577, max77693, max17040, max17042
and charger-manager).


What the patchset does in steps
===============================
1. Some preparation steps are necessary - patch 1 and 2. The driver
   implementing power supply won't be able to fill structure before
   calling power_supply_register(). So 'power_supply_config'
   is introduced in patch 2 ("power_supply: Move run-time configuration
   to separate structure"). Unfortunately this touches all drivers.
   *All drivers are touched.*

2. Safe API wrappers (and usage counter) are added (power_supply_*()).

3. Patch 11: ownership of 'struct power_supply' is moved from driver
   to the core.
   *All drivers are touched.*

4. power_supply_put() is added which reclaims resources.


Dependencies
============
The patchset is rebased on v4.0-rc1 and my latest power supply changes:
1. power_supply: ab8500_fg: Simplify creation and removal of sysfs
   entries [4]
2. compal-laptop: two fixes [5].
3. twl4030_madc_battery, ipaq_micro_battery, lp8788-charger: fixes [6].

Bisect-ability is preserved. All later patches depend on previous ones
so it could be pulled in steps, but cherry-picking won't work.

Patchset is available also here:
https://git.linaro.org/people/marek.szyprowski/linux-srpol.git
branch: v4.0-rc1-power-supply-core-ownership


Changes since v3
================
1. Fix Jonghwa's email in his ack (spotted by Stefan Wahren)
2. Update power_supply_register() documentation.
3. Fix putting the reference to power supply in bq2415x_charger.c (put
   it when it is non-NULL).
4. Add acks: Robert Jarzmik (patch 20), Darren Hart (p. 2), Pavel
   Machek (p. 1-3), Marc Dietrich (p. 2 and 11).


Changes since v2
================
1. Rewrite all drivers to new power_supply_register().
2. Add reviewed-by Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz (internal review)
3. Add reviewed-by Sebastian Reichel [3] (to patches which I did not
   change in major way between v2 and v3).
4. Use atomic usage counter of power supply on each of:
   a. register/unregister,
   b. get/put.

Changes since v1
================
1. Add new patches (1, 2, 11, 19).
2. Preserved ack-s where there weren't any changes.
3. Patch 3: Add use counter.
4. Patch 3: Don't add wrapper for set_charged() because already exists
   one.
