spi_transport_init() will call transport_class_register() twice. If the 2nd transport_class_register() failed, it won't unregister spi_transport_class, which will causes the failed module cannot insert anymore. Besides, spi_device_class is also not unregistered, which will causes the page fault when another module calls attribute_container_register(). Unregister spi_transport_class and spi_transport_class in fail path to prevent page fault, and the problem that cannot insert anymore. The bug is found when sym53c8xx failed in 2nd transport_class_register() and then insert myrb: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff4001e4e PGD 123ff2067 P4D 123ff2067 PUD 123f0e067 PMD 10d0a7067 PTE 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN PTI CPU: 3 PID: 20290 Comm: modprobe Tainted: G W 6.1.0-rc1-00180-g5d7833433b64 #253 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.15.0-0-g2dd4b9b3f840-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:attribute_container_register+0xcf/0x130 Call Trace: <TASK> ? 0xffffffffa0038000 raid_class_attach+0x10d/0x218 [raid_class] myrb_init_module+0x1c/0x1000 [myrb] do_one_initcall+0xdb/0x480 ? trace_event_raw_event_initcall_level+0x1c0/0x1c0 ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held+0xa5/0xd0 ? rcu_read_lock_bh_held+0xc0/0xc0 ? __kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x3a8/0x7b0 ? kasan_unpoison+0x23/0x50 ? 0xffffffffa0038000 do_init_module+0x1cf/0x680 load_module+0x6a50/0x70a0 ... do_syscall_64+0x3f/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Signed-off-by: Shang XiaoJing <shangxiaojing@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_spi.c | 15 ++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_spi.c b/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_spi.c index f569cf0095c2..a0dbc5ce29c9 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_spi.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_spi.c @@ -1622,7 +1622,20 @@ static __init int spi_transport_init(void) if (error) return error; error = anon_transport_class_register(&spi_device_class); - return transport_class_register(&spi_host_class); + if (error) + goto unregister_transport; + + error = transport_class_register(&spi_host_class); + if (error) + goto unregister_device; + + return 0; + +unregister_device: + anon_transport_class_unregister(&spi_device_class); +unregister_transport: + transport_class_unregister(&spi_transport_class); + return error; } static void __exit spi_transport_exit(void) -- 2.17.1
