From: Alexander Popov <alex.popov@xxxxxxxxx> commit 6dcd5d7a7a29c1e4b8016a06aed78cd650cd8c27 upstream. There is the same incorrect approach to locking implemented in vivid_stop_generating_vid_cap(), vivid_stop_generating_vid_out() and sdr_cap_stop_streaming(). These functions are called during streaming stopping with vivid_dev.mutex locked. And they all do the same mistake while stopping their kthreads, which need to lock this mutex as well. See the example from vivid_stop_generating_vid_cap(): /* shutdown control thread */ vivid_grab_controls(dev, false); mutex_unlock(&dev->mutex); kthread_stop(dev->kthread_vid_cap); dev->kthread_vid_cap = NULL; mutex_lock(&dev->mutex); But when this mutex is unlocked, another vb2_fop_read() can lock it instead of vivid_thread_vid_cap() and manipulate the buffer queue. That causes a use-after-free access later. To fix those issues let's: 1. avoid unlocking the mutex in vivid_stop_generating_vid_cap(), vivid_stop_generating_vid_out() and sdr_cap_stop_streaming(); 2. use mutex_trylock() with schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() in the loops of the vivid kthread handlers.
