Thanks, I've queued the patch for 3.8. I edited the commit message and modified the patch: adding a check in the host driver to avoid any other blind dereferences of cmd->mrq, and skipping the unnecessary assignment to "err". Here's the updated patch -- Qian, does it look okay to you? - Chris. From: Zhenpeng Qian <zhenpeng.qian@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 20 Dec 2012 16:20:12 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] mmc: core: If card was removed, don't wait for request to finish. mmc_wait_for_req() calls __mmc_start_req(). If __mmc_start_req() detects that the card's been removed, it will return -ENOMEDIUM and not wait for the request to be finished. In this way, it can reduce io_schedule once. And if io_schedule times out and mmc_card_remove() fails, it will call host->ops->request (sometimes this occurs by insmod and rmmod fast), host->ops->then will get through to msmsdcc_start_command_deferred() finally. cmd->mrq will be NULL -- it's created in mmc_start_request() -- and a NULL deref of cmd->mrq->stop will result. This was seen in msm_sdcc.c, which dereferenced cmd->mrq blindly; also add a check to that host driver to stop this happening again in other potential cases. 10 [<c06e8458>] (__dabt_svc) from [<c04c8c2c>] 11 [<c04c8a44>] (msmsdcc_start_command_deferred) from [<c04c8c2c>] 12 [<c04c8c2c>] (msmsdcc_start_command) from [<c04d1428>] 13 [<c04d1428>] (msmsdcc_request) from [<c04b7c80>] 14 [<c04b7c80>] (mmc_wait_for_req_done) from [<c04b8630>] 15 [<c04b8630>] (mmc_wait_for_cmd) from [<c04c4980>] 16 [<c04c4980>] (get_card_status) from [<c04c5338>] 17 [<c04c5338>] (mmc_blk_err_check) from [<c04b8a78>] 18 [<c04b8a78>] (mmc_start_req) from [<c04c6020>] 19 [<c04c6020>] (mmc_blk_issue_rw_rq) from [<c04c6a1c>] 20 [<c04c6a1c>] (mmc_blk_issue_rq) from [<c04c6c7c>] 21 [<c04c6c7c>] (mmc_queue_thread) from [<c0091d54>] 22 [<c0091d54>] (kthread) from [<c000f028>] Signed-off-by: Zhenpeng Qian <zhenpeng.qian@xxxxxxxxx> [cjb: Rewrite commit message, add msm_sdcc.c test] Signed-off-by: Chris Ball <cjb@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/mmc/core/core.c | 5 +++-- drivers/mmc/host/msm_sdcc.c | 4 ++-- 2 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/mmc/core/core.c b/drivers/mmc/core/core.c index aaed768..87edbc0 100644 --- a/drivers/mmc/core/core.c +++ b/drivers/mmc/core/core.c @@ -470,8 +470,9 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(mmc_start_req); */ void mmc_wait_for_req(struct mmc_host *host, struct mmc_request *mrq) { - __mmc_start_req(host, mrq); - mmc_wait_for_req_done(host, mrq); + /* If the card's been removed, don't wait for the request. */ + if (!__mmc_start_req(host, mrq)) + mmc_wait_for_req_done(host, mrq); } EXPORT_SYMBOL(mmc_wait_for_req); diff --git a/drivers/mmc/host/msm_sdcc.c b/drivers/mmc/host/msm_sdcc.c index 7c0af0e..056ccd0 100644 --- a/drivers/mmc/host/msm_sdcc.c +++ b/drivers/mmc/host/msm_sdcc.c @@ -468,7 +468,7 @@ msmsdcc_start_command_deferred(struct msmsdcc_host *host, host->prog_enable = true; } - if (cmd == cmd->mrq->stop) + if (cmd->mrq && (cmd == cmd->mrq->stop)) *c |= MCI_CSPM_MCIABORT; if (snoop_cccr_abort(cmd)) @@ -559,7 +559,7 @@ msmsdcc_start_data(struct msmsdcc_host *host, struct mmc_data *data, static void msmsdcc_start_command(struct msmsdcc_host *host, struct mmc_command *cmd, u32 c) { - if (cmd == cmd->mrq->stop) + if (cmd->mrq && (cmd == cmd->mrq->stop)) c |= MCI_CSPM_MCIABORT; host->stats.cmds++; -- Chris Ball <cjb@xxxxxxxxxx> <http://printf.net/> One Laptop Per Child -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
