This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled clk: fix invalid usage of list cursor in unregister to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: clk-fix-invalid-usage-of-list-cursor-in-unregister.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 351e8dcefd148a56ec50993cd46035d86c885b8c Author: Lukasz Bartosik <lb@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Apr 2 00:51:49 2021 +0200 clk: fix invalid usage of list cursor in unregister [ Upstream commit 7045465500e465b09f09d6e5bdc260a9f1aab97b ] Fix invalid usage of a list_for_each_entry cursor in clk_notifier_unregister(). When list is empty or if the list is completely traversed (without breaking from the loop on one of the entries) then the list cursor does not point to a valid entry and therefore should not be used. The patch fixes a logical bug that hasn't been seen in pratice however it is analogus to the bug fixed in clk_notifier_register(). The issue was dicovered when running 5.12-rc1 kernel on x86_64 with KASAN enabled: BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in clk_notifier_register+0xab/0x230 Read of size 8 at addr ffffffffa0d10588 by task swapper/0/1 CPU: 1 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.12.0-rc1 #1 Hardware name: Google Caroline/Caroline, BIOS Google_Caroline.7820.430.0 07/20/2018 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xee/0x15c print_address_description+0x1e/0x2dc kasan_report+0x188/0x1ce ? clk_notifier_register+0xab/0x230 ? clk_prepare_lock+0x15/0x7b ? clk_notifier_register+0xab/0x230 clk_notifier_register+0xab/0x230 dw8250_probe+0xc01/0x10d4 ...
