[PATCH 3.16 095/366] tpm: fix race condition in tpm_common_write()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



3.16.61-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tadeusz Struk <tadeusz.struk@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 3ab2011ea368ec3433ad49e1b9e1c7b70d2e65df upstream.

There is a race condition in tpm_common_write function allowing
two threads on the same /dev/tpm<N>, or two different applications
on the same /dev/tpmrm<N> to overwrite each other commands/responses.
Fixed this by taking the priv->buffer_mutex early in the function.

Also converted the priv->data_pending from atomic to a regular size_t
type. There is no need for it to be atomic since it is only touched
under the protection of the priv->buffer_mutex.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
