intel_th: fix device leak on output open()

2026-01-30T09:28:46+00:00

commit 95fc36a234da24bbc5f476f8104a5a15f99ed3e3 upstream. Make sure to drop the reference taken when looking up the th device during output device open() on errors and on close(). Note that a recent commit fixed the leak in a couple of open() error paths but not all of them, and the reference is still leaking on successful open().

intel_th: Fix error handling in intel_th_output_open

2026-01-08T09:14:18+00:00

commit 6d5925b667e4ed9e77c8278cc215191d29454a3f upstream. intel_th_output_open() calls bus_find_device_by_devt() which internally increments the device reference count via get_device(), but this reference is not properly released in several error paths. When device driver is unavailable, file operations cannot be obtained, or the driver's open method fails, the function returns without calling put_device(), leading to a permanent device reference count leak. This prevents the device from being properly released and could cause resource exhaustion over time. Found by code review.

intel_th: avoid using deprecated page->mapping, index fields

2025-05-29T09:01:58+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8e553520596bbd5ce832e26e9d721e6a0c797b8b ] The struct page->mapping, index fields are deprecated and soon to be only available as part of a folio. It is likely the intel_th code which sets page->mapping, index is was implemented out of concern that some aspect of the page fault logic may encounter unexpected problems should they not. However, the appropriate interface for inserting kernel-allocated memory is vm_insert_page() in a VM_MIXEDMAP. By using the helper function vmf_insert_mixed() we can do this with minimal churn in the existing fault handler. By doing so, we bypass the remainder of the faulting logic. The pages are still pinned so there is no possibility of anything unexpected being done with the pages once established. It would also be reasonable to pre-map everything on fault, however to minimise churn we retain the fault handler. We also eliminate all code which clears page->mapping on teardown as this has now become unnecessary. The MSU code relies on faulting to function correctly, so is by definition dependent on CONFIG_MMU. We avoid spurious reports about compilation failure for unsupported platforms by making this requirement explicit in Kconfig as part of this change too.

[tree-wide] finally take no_llseek out

2024-09-27T15:18:43+00:00

no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b14441 ("fs: remove no_llseek") To quote that commit, At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek - git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do sed -i '/\/d' $i done would do it. Unfortunately, that hadn't been done. Linus, could you do that now, so that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the form .llseek = no_llseek, so it's obviously safe.

Merge tag 'driver-core-6.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

2024-07-25T17:42:22+00:00

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1. Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes in here are: - platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases to get here, finally!) - Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core interactions. It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver in rust" type of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the phy rust drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on which others can start their work. There is still a long way to go here before we have a multitude of rust drivers being added, but it's a great first step. - driver core const api changes. This reached across all bus types, and there are some fix-ups for some not-common bus types that linux-next and 0-day testing shook out. This work is being done to help make the rust bindings more safe, as well as the C code, moving toward the end-goal of allowing us to put driver structures into read-only memory. We aren't there yet, but are getting closer. - minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection - arch_topology minor changes - other minor driver core cleanups All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no reported problems" * tag 'driver-core-6.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (55 commits) ARM: sa1100: make match function take a const pointer sysfs/cpu: Make crash_hotplug attribute world-readable dio: Have dio_bus_match() callback take a const * zorro: make match function take a const pointer driver core: module: make module_[add|remove]_driver take a const * driver core: make driver_find_device() take a const * driver core: make driver_[create|remove]_file take a const * firmware_loader: fix soundness issue in `request_internal` firmware_loader: annotate doctests as `no_run` devres: Correct code style for functions that return a pointer type devres: Initialize an uninitialized struct member devres: Fix memory leakage caused by driver API devm_free_percpu() devres: Fix devm_krealloc() wasting memory driver core: platform: Switch to use kmemdup_array() driver core: have match() callback in struct bus_type take a const * MAINTAINERS: add Rust device abstractions to DRIVER CORE device: rust: improve safety comments MAINTAINERS: add Danilo as FIRMWARE LOADER maintainer MAINTAINERS: add Rust FW abstractions to FIRMWARE LOADER firmware: rust: improve safety comments ...

driver core: have match() callback in struct bus_type take a const *

2024-07-03T13:16:54+00:00

In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct device_driver in read-only memory. Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of() calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *. For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.) That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their struct device * in read-only-memory. Cc: Rafael J.
