staging: greybus: lights: avoid NULL deref

2026-03-04T12:20:29+00:00

[ Upstream commit efcffd9a6ad8d190651498d5eda53bfc7cf683a7 ] gb_lights_light_config() stores channel_count before allocating the channels array. If kcalloc() fails, gb_lights_release() iterates the non-zero count and dereferences light->channels, which is NULL. Allocate channels first and only then publish channels_count so the cleanup path can't walk a NULL pointer.

tty: introduce and use tty_port_tty_vhangup() helper

2026-01-08T09:14:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2b5eac0f8c6e79bc152c8804f9f88d16717013ab ] This code (tty_get -> vhangup -> tty_put) is repeated on few places. Introduce a helper similar to tty_port_tty_hangup() (asynchronous) to handle even vhangup (synchronous). And use it on those places. In fact, reuse the tty_port_tty_hangup()'s code and call tty_vhangup() depending on a new bool parameter.

staging: greybus: gbphy: fix up const issue with the match callback

2025-08-15T10:13:37+00:00

[ Upstream commit ce32eff1cf3ae8ac2596171dd0af1657634c83eb ] gbphy_dev_match_id() should be taking a const pointer, as the pointer passed to it from the container_of() call was const to start with (it was accidentally cast away with the call.) Fix this all up by correctly marking the pointer types.

Revert "staging: greybus: Fix capitalization and punctuation inconsistencies"

2024-09-11T13:56:26+00:00

This reverts commit 30db8460f984a7f5299b6e07ea8a57cd09fc9557. The offending commit tried to make the error messages of a few Greybus drivers in staging more consistent by capitalising messages, but the rest of the Greybus code do not follow this style so the change ended up introducing an inconsistency instead.

staging: greybus: Fix capitalization and punctuation inconsistencies

2024-09-03T08:36:03+00:00

There were a lot of inconsistencies in outputs and comments, some were properly formatted and capitalized, and some weren't. This patch resolves this by properly formatting the inconsistent comments and outputs.

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.
