If device_release_driver(&phydev->mdio.dev) is called, it releases all resources belonging to the PHY device. Hence the subsequent call to phy_led_triggers_unregister() will access already freed memory when unregistering the LEDs. Move the call to phy_led_triggers_unregister() before the possible call to device_release_driver() to fix this. Fixes: 2e0bc452f4721520 ("net: phy: leds: add support for led triggers on phy link state change") Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@xxxxxxxxx> --- This is v2 of "[RFC] net: phy: Fix double free in phy_detach()". v2: - Dropped RFC, - Reworded, as commit a7dac9f9c1695d74 ("phy: fix error case of phy_led_triggers_(un)register") fixed the double free, and thus the warning I was seeing during "poweroff" on sh73a0/kzm9g, - Verified use after free using CONFIG_DEBUG_DEVRES, log_devres = 1, and additional debug code printing the address of phy->phy_led_triggers. Adding poisoning of freed memory to devres_log() will cause a crash. --- drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c b/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c index ba86c191a13ea81c..a1d6e13b1b4113a4 100644 --- a/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c +++ b/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c @@ -981,6 +981,8 @@ void phy_detach(struct phy_device *phydev) phydev->attached_dev = NULL; phy_suspend(phydev); + phy_led_triggers_unregister(phydev); + /* If the device had no specific driver before (i.e. - it * was using the generic driver), we unbind the device * from the generic driver so that there's a chance a @@ -994,8 +996,6 @@ void phy_detach(struct phy_device *phydev) } } - phy_led_triggers_unregister(phydev); - /* * The phydev might go away on the put_device() below, so avoid * a use-after-free bug by reading the underlying bus first. -- 1.9.1
