commit fbac03467e53d8d72e5099c03df26d9adae11416 upstream.

The UVC driver has two video streams, one for the frames and another one
for the metadata. Both streams share most of the codebase, but only the
data stream declares support for DMABUF transfer mode.

I have tried the DMABUF transfer mode with CONFIG_DMABUF_HEAPS_SYSTEM
and the frames looked correct.

This patch announces the support for DMABUF for the metadata stream.
This is useful for apps/HALs that only want to support DMABUF.

<title>media: hackrf: fix to not free memory after the device is registered in hackrf_probe()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fcd1d70792a35c8a97414fe429f48311e41269c2</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 3b7da2b4d0fe014eff181ed37e3bf832eb8ed258 upstream.

In hackrf driver, the following race condition occurs:
```
		CPU0						CPU1
hackrf_probe()
  kzalloc(); // alloc hackrf_dev
  ....
  v4l2_device_register();
  ....
						fd = sys_open("/path/to/dev"); // open hackrf fd
						....
  v4l2_device_unregister();
  ....
  kfree(); // free hackrf_dev
  ....
						sys_ioctl(fd, ...);
						  v4l2_ioctl();
						    video_is_registered() // UAF!!
						....
						sys_close(fd);
						  v4l2_release() // UAF!!
						    hackrf_video_release()
						      kfree(); // DFB!!
```

When a V4L2 or video device is unregistered, the device node is removed so
new open() calls are blocked.

However, file descriptors that are already open-and any in-flight I/O-do
not terminate immediately; they remain valid until the last reference is
dropped and the driver's release() is invoked.

Therefore, freeing device memory on the error path after hackrf_probe()
has registered dev it will lead to a race to use-after-free vuln, since
those already-open handles haven't been released yet.

And since release() free memory too, race to use-after-free and
double-free vuln occur.

To prevent this, if device is registered from probe(), it should be
modified to free memory only through release() rather than calling
kfree() directly.

<title>media: as102: fix to not free memory after the device is registered in as102_usb_probe()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7e5aedf6059cba2a669d86caeaf5a51f33ec85a1</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 8bd29dbe03fc5b0f039ab2395ff37b64236d2f0c upstream.

In as102_usb driver, the following race condition occurs:
```
		CPU0						CPU1
as102_usb_probe()
  kzalloc(); // alloc as102_dev_t
  ....
  usb_register_dev();
						fd = sys_open("/path/to/dev"); // open as102 fd
						....
  usb_deregister_dev();
  ....
  kfree(); // free as102_dev_t
  ....
						sys_close(fd);
						  as102_release() // UAF!!
						    as102_usb_release()
						      kfree(); // DFB!!
```

When a USB character device registered with usb_register_dev() is later
unregistered (via usb_deregister_dev() or disconnect), the device node is
removed so new open() calls fail. However, file descriptors that are
already open do not go away immediately: they remain valid until the last
reference is dropped and the driver's .release() is invoked.

In as102, as102_usb_probe() calls usb_register_dev() and then, on an
error path, does usb_deregister_dev() and frees as102_dev_t right away.
If userspace raced a successful open() before the deregistration, that
open FD will later hit as102_release() --&gt; as102_usb_release() and access
or free as102_dev_t again, occur a race to use-after-free and
double-free vuln.

The fix is to never kfree(as102_dev_t) directly once usb_register_dev()
has succeeded. After deregistration, defer freeing memory to .release().

In other words, let release() perform the last kfree when the final open
FD is closed.

<id>urn:sha1:dd2b888e08d3b3d6aacd65d76cd44fac11da750f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit a66485a934c7187ae8e36517d40615fa2e961cff upstream.

em28xx_v4l2_open() reads dev-&gt;v4l2 without holding dev-&gt;lock,
creating a race with em28xx_v4l2_init()'s error path and
em28xx_v4l2_fini(), both of which free the em28xx_v4l2 struct
and set dev-&gt;v4l2 to NULL under dev-&gt;lock.

This race leads to two issues:
 - use-after-free in v4l2_fh_init() when accessing vdev-&gt;ctrl_handler,
   since the video_device is embedded in the freed em28xx_v4l2 struct.
 - NULL pointer dereference in em28xx_resolution_set() when accessing
   v4l2-&gt;norm, since dev-&gt;v4l2 has been set to NULL.

Fix this by moving the mutex_lock() before the dev-&gt;v4l2 read and
adding a NULL check for dev-&gt;v4l2 under the lock.

<id>urn:sha1:7c39f48568e0aec9bf6988cdbf833fdf8af19901</id>
<content type='text'>
Recent cleanup introduced a bug in the error path of
uvc_alloc_urb_buffers(). If there is not enough memory for the
allocation the following error will be triggered:

[  739.196672] UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in mm/page_alloc.c:1403:22
[  739.196710] shift exponent 52 is too large for 32-bit type 'int'

Resulting in:
[  740.464422] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffac1c0800000

The reason for the bug is that usb_free_noncoherent is called with an
invalid size (0) instead of the actual size of the urb.

This patch takes care of that.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines.  I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script.  I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.

So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.

The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".
