6.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Valery Borovsky commit 2f378dc45e685fc825d2dd08e7864666d6fcc009 upstream. airspy_disconnect() clears s->udev under v4l2_lock, but airspy_stop_streaming() unconditionally calls airspy_ctrl_msg() and airspy_free_stream_bufs() afterwards. If a streaming user closes the device after disconnect, stop_streaming() runs and dereferences the NULL s->udev: airspy_stop_streaming() airspy_ctrl_msg(s, CMD_RECEIVER_MODE, 0, 0, NULL, 0) usb_sndctrlpipe(s->udev, 0) /* NULL deref */ airspy_free_stream_bufs(s) usb_free_coherent(s->udev, ...) /* NULL deref */ The airspy driver uses vb2_fop_release() in its file_operations, so replace video_unregister_device(&s->vdev) with vb2_video_unregister_device(&s->vdev) and move it before clearing s->udev. vb2_video_unregister_device() releases the vb2 queue, which synchronously runs airspy_stop_streaming() if streaming is active, so the URBs, coherent DMA stream buffers and the hardware stop control message all execute while s->udev is still valid. vb2_video_unregister_device() locks vdev->queue->lock (vb_queue_lock) internally, and stop_streaming() locks v4l2_lock, so the previous outer mutex_lock(&s->vb_queue_lock) / mutex_lock(&s->v4l2_lock) pair around the unregister sequence would self-deadlock and has been removed. A short v4l2_lock critical section around s->udev = NULL remains so any ioctl path that still holds the file descriptor sees coherent state.
