ALSA: mixer: oss: Add card disconnect checkpoints

2026-03-04T12:21:10+00:00

[ Upstream commit 084d5d44418148662365eced3e126ad1a81ee3e2 ] ALSA OSS mixer layer calls the kcontrol ops rather individually, and pending calls might be not always caught at disconnecting the device. For avoiding the potential UAF scenarios, add sanity checks of the card disconnection at each entry point of OSS mixer accesses. The rwsem is taken just before that check, hence the rest context should be covered by that properly.

ALSA: pcm: Fix race of buffer access at PCM OSS layer

2025-05-29T09:03:20+00:00

commit 93a81ca0657758b607c3f4ba889ae806be9beb73 upstream. The PCM OSS layer tries to clear the buffer with the silence data at initialization (or reconfiguration) of a stream with the explicit call of snd_pcm_format_set_silence() with runtime->dma_area. But this may lead to a UAF because the accessed runtime->dma_area might be freed concurrently, as it's performed outside the PCM ops. For avoiding it, move the code into the PCM core and perform it inside the buffer access lock, so that it won't be changed during the operation.

ASoC: Fixes for v6.12 A bunch of fixes here that came in during the merge window and the first week of release, plus some new quirks and device IDs. There's nothing major here, it's a bit bigger than it might've been due to there being no fixes sent during the merge window due to your vacation.

ALSA: mixer_oss: Remove some incorrect kfree_const() usages

2024-09-30T08:12:08+00:00

"assigned" and "assigned->name" are allocated in snd_mixer_oss_proc_write() using kmalloc() and kstrdup(), so there is no point in using kfree_const() to free these resources. Switch to the more standard kfree() to free these resources. This could avoid a memory leak.

[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.

ALSA: control: Optimize locking for look-up

2024-08-09T12:24:55+00:00

For a fast look-up of a control element via either numid or name matching (enabled via CONFIG_SND_CTL_FAST_LOOKUP), a locking isn't needed at all thanks to Xarray. OTOH, the locking is still needed for a slow linked-list traversal, and that's rather a rare case. In this patch, we reduce the use of locking at snd_ctl_find_*() API functions, and switch from controls_rwsem to controls_rwlock for avoiding unnecessary lock inversions. This also resulted in a nice cleanup, as *_unlocked() version of snd_ctl_find_*() APIs can be dropped. snd_ctl_find_id_mixer_unlocked() is still left just as an alias of snd_ctl_find_id_mixer(), since soc-card.c has a wrapper and there are several users. Once after converting there, we can remove it later. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20240809104234.8488-3-tiwai@suse.de
