[PATCH] spi: fsl-dspi: fix use-after-free in remove path

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

 



spi_unregister_controller() not only unregisters the controller, but
also frees the controller. This will free the driver data with it, so
we must not access it later dspi_remove().

Solve this by allocating the driver data separately from the SPI
controller.

This fixes the issue reported at https://marc.info/?l=linux-spi&m=160068648808293&w=2
for the fsl-dspi driver in the way Mark suggested. A whole lot of other SPI drivers
are affected by this issue and need a similar fix. Here is a fix for the driver
I currently care about.
