From: Javier Martinez Canillas Date: Tue, 3 May 2016 20:27:18 +0000 (-0400) Subject: s5p-mfc: Fix race between s5p_mfc_probe() and s5p_mfc_open() X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c974c436eaf406225b7f4c5d27ae033a12667a38;p=linux-beck.git s5p-mfc: Fix race between s5p_mfc_probe() and s5p_mfc_open() The s5p_mfc_probe() function registers the video devices before all the resources needed by s5p_mfc_open() are correctly initalized. So if s5p_mfc_open() function is called before s5p_mfc_probe() finishes (since the video dev is already registered), a NULL pointer dereference will happen due s5p_mfc_open() accessing uninitialized vars such as the struct s5p_mfc_dev .watchdog_timer and .mfc_ops fields. An example is following BUG caused by add_timer() getting a NULL pointer: [ 45.765374] kernel BUG at kernel/time/timer.c:790! [ 45.765381] Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM ...
