This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ASoC: DPCM: Don't pick up BE without substream to the 5.15-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: asoc-dpcm-don-t-pick-up-be-without-substream.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 754590651ccbbcc74a7c20907be4bb15d642bde3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 1 Aug 2022 19:05:10 +0200 Subject: ASoC: DPCM: Don't pick up BE without substream MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit 754590651ccbbcc74a7c20907be4bb15d642bde3 upstream. When DPCM tries to add valid BE connections at dpcm_add_paths(), it doesn't check whether the picked BE actually supports for the given stream direction. Due to that, when an asymmetric BE stream is present, it picks up wrongly and this may result in a NULL dereference at a later point where the code assumes the existence of a corresponding BE substream. This patch adds the check for the presence of the substream for the target BE for avoiding the problem above. Note that we have already some fix for non-existing BE substream at commit 6246f283d5e0 ("ASoC: dpcm: skip missing substream while applying symmetry"). But the code path we've hit recently is rather happening before the previous fix. So this patch tries to fix at picking up a BE instead of parsing BE lists.
