This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled mmc: tmio: avoid concurrent runs of mmc_request_done() to the 6.8-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: mmc-tmio-avoid-concurrent-runs-of-mmc_request_done.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.8 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 5f9561574bacb43fd5fc26704902bb993ba5b32f Author: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Mar 5 11:42:56 2024 +0100 mmc: tmio: avoid concurrent runs of mmc_request_done() [ Upstream commit e8d1b41e69d72c62865bebe8f441163ec00b3d44 ] With the to-be-fixed commit, the reset_work handler cleared 'host->mrq' outside of the spinlock protected critical section. That leaves a small race window during execution of 'tmio_mmc_reset()' where the done_work handler could grab a pointer to the now invalid 'host->mrq'. Both would use it to call mmc_request_done() causing problems (see link below). However, 'host->mrq' cannot simply be cleared earlier inside the critical section. That would allow new mrqs to come in asynchronously while the actual reset of the controller still needs to be done. So, like 'tmio_mmc_set_ios()', an ERR_PTR is used to prevent new mrqs from coming in but still avoiding concurrency between work handlers.
