[PATCH] i2c-hid: Disable IRQ before freeing buffers

From: JoÃo Paulo Rechi Vita
Date: Tue Dec 06 2016 - 15:49:25 EST


The HID report buffers that are initially allocated on i2c_hid_probe()
might not be big enough to hold the HID reports from a specific device,
in which case they will be freed and new ones will be allocated in
i2c_hid_start(), at point which the device's report size is known. But
at this point ihid->irq is already running, and may call
i2c_hid_get_input() which passes ihid->inbuf to i2c_master_recv(). Since
this handler runs in a separate thread, ihid->inbuf may be freed at this
very moment, and i2c_master_recv() will write on memory which may be
already owned by a different part of the kernel, corrupting its data.

This problem has been observed on an Asus UX360UA laptop which has an
I2C touchpad, and results in a complete system freeze or an unusable
slowness with a lof of "BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at
<address>" warnings. Enabling SLUB debugging shows a use-after-free
warning on memory allocated in i2c_hid_alloc_buffers() and freed in
i2c_hid_free_buffers():
