ieee802154: ca8210: fix pointer truncation in kfifo on 64-bit

2026-07-24T14:17:13+00:00

commit 6d7f7bcf225b2d566176bf6229dbd1252940cb3c upstream. ca8210_test_int_driver_write() and ca8210_test_int_user_read() exchange a kmalloc'd buffer pointer through a struct kfifo, but pass a literal '4' as the byte count to kfifo_in()/kfifo_out(). This is correct on 32-bit (pointer = 4 bytes), but on 64-bit only the low 4 bytes of the 8-byte pointer are written into the FIFO. The reader then reads back 4 bytes into an 8-byte local pointer variable, leaving the upper 4 bytes uninitialized stack data. The first dereference of the reconstructed pointer (fifo_buffer[1]) accesses an arbitrary kernel address and generally results in an oops. Use sizeof(fifo_buffer) so the byte count matches pointer width on every architecture. The driver has no architecture restriction in Kconfig, so any 64-bit build with CONFIG_IEEE802154_CA8210_DEBUGFS=y is exposed. Issue has been latent since the driver was added in 2017 because it is most commonly deployed on 32-bit MCUs. Found via a custom Coccinelle semantic patch hunting for short-byte kfifo I/O on byte-mode kfifos used to shuttle pointers.

ieee802154: ca8210: fix cas_ctl leak on spi_async failure

2026-07-24T14:17:13+00:00

commit e09390e439bd7cca30dd10893b1f64802961667a upstream. ca8210_spi_transfer() allocates cas_ctl with kzalloc_obj(GFP_ATOMIC) and relies entirely on the SPI completion callback ca8210_spi_transfer_complete() to free it. The spi_async() API only invokes the completion callback on successful submission. On failure it returns a negative error code without ever queuing the callback, which leaves cas_ctl and its embedded spi_message and spi_transfer orphaned. Every kfree(cas_ctl) in the driver is inside the completion callback, so there is no other reclamation path. ca8210_spi_transfer() is called from ca8210_spi_exchange(), the interrupt handler ca8210_interrupt_handler(), and from the retry path inside the completion callback itself. The exchange and interrupt handler paths loop on -EBUSY, so under sustained SPI bus contention every retry iteration leaks a fresh cas_ctl (~600 bytes per occurrence). Fix it by freeing cas_ctl on the spi_async() error path. While here, correct the misleading error string: the function calls spi_async(), not spi_sync().

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols: - Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock (IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls) - Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock. - Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked) in BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance. - Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy Rx via io_uring. - Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%. - Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream performance up to 2x. - Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching for an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock. Bring an additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution. - Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%. - Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under ping flood. - Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win. - Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly identify network namespaces and their roles. There are up to 4 namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns pointer arguments, interpreted differently based on context. - Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access. - Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout in TCP. - Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches. - Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST. - Support specifying at what time packet should be sent on AF_XDP sockets. - Expose TCP ULP diagnostic info (for TLS and MPTCP) to non-admin users. - Add Netlink YAML spec for WiFi (nl80211) and conntrack. - Introduce EXPORT_IPV6_MOD() and EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() for symbols which only need to be exported when IPv6 support is built as a module. - Age FDB entries based on Rx not Tx traffic in VxLAN, similar to normal bridging. - Allow users to specify source port range for GENEVE tunnels. - netconsole: allow attaching kernel release, CPU ID and task name to messages as metadata Driver API: - Continue rework / fixing of Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) across the SW layers. Delegate the responsibilities to phylink where possible. Improve its handling in phylib. - Support symmetric OR-XOR RSS hashing algorithm. - Support tracking and preserving IRQ affinity by NAPI itself. - Support loopback mode speed selection for interface selftests.

net: Switch back to struct platform_driver::remove()

2024-10-04T23:39:57+00:00

After commit 0edb555a65d1 ("platform: Make platform_driver::remove() return void") .remove() is (again) the right callback to implement for platform drivers. Convert all platform drivers below drivers/net after the previous conversion commits apart from the wireless drivers to use .remove(), with the eventual goal to drop struct platform_driver::remove_new(). As .remove() and .remove_new() have the same prototypes, conversion is done by just changing the structure member name in the driver initializer.
