When two client of the same gpio call pinctrl_select_state() for the same functionality, we are seeing NULL pointer issue while accessing desc->mux_owner. Let's say two processes A, B executing in pin_request() for the same pin and process A updates the desc->mux_usecount but not yet updated the desc->mux_owner while process B see the desc->mux_usecount which got updated by A path and further executes strcmp and while accessing desc->mux_owner it crashes with NULL pointer. Serialize the access to mux related setting with a spin lock. cpu0 (process A) cpu1(process B) pinctrl_select_state() { pinctrl_select_state() { pin_request() { pin_request() { ... .... } else { desc->mux_usecount++; desc->mux_usecount && strcmp(desc->mux_owner, owner)) { if (desc->mux_usecount > 1) return 0; desc->mux_owner = owner; } } Signed-off-by: Mukesh Ojha <quic_mojha@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- Changes in v2: - Used scoped_guard and renamed lock name as per suggestion from Linus.W . drivers/pinctrl/core.c | 3 + drivers/pinctrl/core.h | 2 + drivers/pinctrl/pinmux.c | 150 +++++++++++++++++++++------------------ 3 files changed, 86 insertions(+), 69 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/pinctrl/core.c b/drivers/pinctrl/core.c index 4061890a1748..b00911421cf5 100644 --- a/drivers/pinctrl/core.c +++ b/drivers/pinctrl/core.c @@ -220,6 +220,9 @@ static int pinctrl_register_one_pin(struct pinctrl_dev *pctldev, /* Set owner */ pindesc->pctldev = pctldev;
