thunderbolt: Fix NULL dereference in tb_remove_work()grafted
There is a slight race between tb_remove_work() and tb_domain_remove() which leads to dereferencing a NULL tb->root_switch pointer inside tb_free_unplugged_xdomains(): Thread A Thread B tb_remove_work() tb_domain_remove() mutex_lock(&tb->lock) tb_stop() /* doesn't cancel a running callback */ cancel_delayed_work(&tcm->remove_work) ... tb_switch_remove(tb->root_switch) tb->root_switch = NULL mutex_unlock(&tb->lock) mutex_lock(&tb->lock) ... /* without checking ->root_switch */ tb_free_unplugged_xdomains(tb->root_switch) mutex_unlock(&tb->lock) Commit a8937f35cf39 ("thunderbolt: Remove XDomain from the bus without holding tb->lock") doesn't seem right to move tb_free_unplugged_xdomains() out of the &tb->lock section and the check for tb->root_switch, in particular. It states: For this reason separate removing the XDomain from the topology data structures (where we need the lock) from unregistering the device from the bus (where remove callbacks of the drivers are being called). tb_free_unplugged_xdomains() belongs to the former group of functions requiring the lock. And it also calls tb_xdomain_remove() which should only be called with &tb->lock held. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Svace static analysis tool.

+=====================================
+ accel/rocket Rockchip NPU driver
+=====================================
+
+The accel/rocket driver supports the Neural Processing Units (NPUs) inside some
+Rockchip SoCs such as the RK3588. Rockchip calls it RKNN and sometimes RKNPU.
+
+The hardware is described in chapter 36 in the RK3588 TRM.
+
+This driver just powers the hardware on and off, allocates and maps buffers to
+the device and submits jobs to the frontend unit. Everything else is done in
+userspace, as a Gallium driver (also called rocket) that is part of the Mesa3D
+project.
+
+Hardware currently supported:
+
