This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled usb: usbip: add missing device lock on tweak configuration cmd to the 5.10-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: usb-usbip-add-missing-device-lock-on-tweak-configura.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e23faeabb5a24bc0809c53765d7e9beb306b211b Author: Niels Dossche <dossche.niels@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Apr 12 18:50:55 2022 +0200 usb: usbip: add missing device lock on tweak configuration cmd [ Upstream commit d088fabace2ca337b275d1d4b36db4fe7771e44f ] The function documentation of usb_set_configuration says that its callers should hold the device lock. This lock is held for all callsites except tweak_set_configuration_cmd. The code path can be executed for example when attaching a remote USB device. The solution is to surround the call by the device lock. This bug was found using my experimental own-developed static analysis tool, which reported the missing lock on v5.17.2. I manually verified this bug report by doing code review as well. I runtime checked that the required lock is not held. I compiled and runtime tested this on x86_64 with a USB mouse. After applying this patch, my analyser no longer reports this potential bug.
