[PATCH 4/4] HID: logitech-hidpp: disable io in probe error path

From: Peter Wu
Date: Thu Dec 11 2014 - 07:53:00 EST


Balance a hid_device_io_start() call with hid_device_io_stop() in the
error path. This avoids processing of HID reports when the probe fails
which possibly leads to invalid memory access in hid_device_probe() as
report_enum->report_id_hash might already be freed via
hid_close_report().

hid_set_drvdata() is called before wtp_allocate, be consistent and clear
drvdata too on the error path of wtp_allocate.

Hi Andrew,

There are few users of hid_device_io_start/stop, this is the first one
to get start/stop out of sync. Should the comment of
hid_device_io_start() be updated to ensure that hid_device_io_stop()
gets called before probe() returns? Or should the hid-core be changed to
handle this out-of-sync issue:

if (ret) {
if (hdev->io_started))
down(&hdev->driver_input_lock);
hid_close_report(hdev);
hdev->driver = NULL;
}

Is my observation correct or not that HID reports can arrive during
hid_close_report() when io_started == true?

Kind regards,
Peter
