[PATCH] spmi: Add a check for remove callback when removing a SPMI driver

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

 



When removing a SPMI driver, there can be a crash due to NULL pointer
dereference if it does not have a remove callback defined. This is
one such call trace observed when removing the QCOM SPMI PMIC driver:

 dump_backtrace.cfi_jt+0x0/0x8
 dump_stack_lvl+0xd8/0x16c
 panic+0x188/0x498
 __cfi_slowpath+0x0/0x214

 driver_unregister+0x58/0x84
 cleanup_module+0x1c/0xc24 [qcom_spmi_pmic]
 __do_sys_delete_module+0x3ec/0x53c
 __arm64_sys_delete_module+0x18/0x28
 el0_svc_common+0xdc/0x294
 el0_svc+0x38/0x9c
 el0_sync_handler+0x8c/0xf0
 el0_sync+0x1b4/0x1c0

If a driver has all its resources allocated through devm_() APIs and
does not need any other explicit cleanup, it would not require a
remove callback to be defined. Hence, add a check for remove callback
presence before calling it when removing a SPMI driver.
