> Subject: [PATCH v0] ieee802154/adf7242: defer destroy_workqueue call
>
>
> There is a possible race condition (use-after-free) like below
>
> (FREE) | (USE)
> adf7242_remove | adf7242_channel
> cancel_delayed_work_sync |
> destroy_workqueue (1) | adf7242_cmd_rx
> | mod_delayed_work (2)
> |
>
> The root cause for this race is that the upper layer (ieee802154) is unaware of
> this detaching event and the function adf7242_channel can be called without
> any checks.
>
> To fix this, we can add a flag write at the beginning of adf7242_remove and
> add flag check in adf7242_channel. Or we can just defer the destructive
> operation like other commit 3e0588c291d6 ("hamradio: defer
> ax25 kfree after unregister_netdev") which let the
> ieee802154_unregister_hw() to handle the synchronization. This patch takes
> the second option.
