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.

+Introduction
+************
+
+LIRC stands for Linux Infrared Remote Control. The LIRC device interface is
+a bi-directional interface for transporting raw IR and decoded scancodes
+data between userspace and kernelspace. Fundamentally, it is just a chardev
+(/dev/lircX, for X = 0, 1, 2, ...), with a number of standard struct
+file_operations defined on it. With respect to transporting raw IR and
+decoded scancodes to and fro, the essential fops are read, write and ioctl.
+
+It is also possible to attach a BPF program to a LIRC device for decoding
+raw IR into scancodes.
+
+Example dmesg output upon a driver registering w/LIRC:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ $ dmesg |grep lirc_dev
+ rc rc0: lirc_dev: driver mceusb registered at minor = 0, raw IR receiver, raw IR transmitter
+
+What you should see for a chardev:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ $ ls -l /dev/lirc*
+ crw-rw---- 1 root root 248, 0 Jul 2 22:20 /dev/lirc0
+
+Note that the package `v4l-utils <https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/>`_
+contains tools for working with LIRC devices:
+
+ - ir-ctl: can receive raw IR and transmit IR, as well as query LIRC
+ device features.
+
+ - ir-keytable: can load keymaps; allows you to set IR kernel protocols; load
+ BPF IR decoders and test IR decoding. Some BPF IR decoders are also
+ provided.
+
+.. _lirc_modes:
+
+**********
+LIRC modes
+**********
+
+LIRC supports some modes of receiving and sending IR codes, as shown
+on the following table.
+
+.. _lirc-mode-scancode:
+.. _lirc-scancode-flag-toggle:
+.. _lirc-scancode-flag-repeat:
+
+``LIRC_MODE_SCANCODE``
+
+ This mode is for both sending and receiving IR.
+
+ For transmitting (aka sending), create a struct lirc_scancode with
+ the desired scancode set in the ``scancode`` member, :c:type:`rc_proto`
+ set to the :ref:`IR protocol <Remote_controllers_Protocols>`, and all other
+ members set to 0. Write this struct to the lirc device.
+
+ For receiving, you read struct lirc_scancode from the LIRC device.
+ The ``scancode`` field is set to the received scancode and the
+ :ref:`IR protocol <Remote_controllers_Protocols>` is set in
+ :c:type:`rc_proto`. If the scancode maps to a valid key code, this is set
+ in the ``keycode`` field, else it is set to ``KEY_RESERVED``.
+
+ The ``flags`` can have ``LIRC_SCANCODE_FLAG_TOGGLE`` set if the toggle
+ bit is set in protocols that support it (e.g. rc-5 and rc-6), or
+ ``LIRC_SCANCODE_FLAG_REPEAT`` for when a repeat is received for protocols
+ that support it (e.g. nec).
+
+ In the Sanyo and NEC protocol, if you hold a button on remote, rather than
+ repeating the entire scancode, the remote sends a shorter message with
+ no scancode, which just means button is held, a "repeat". When this is
+ received, the ``LIRC_SCANCODE_FLAG_REPEAT`` is set and the scancode and
+ keycode is repeated.
+
+ With nec, there is no way to distinguish "button hold" from "repeatedly
+ pressing the same button". The rc-5 and rc-6 protocols have a toggle bit.
+ When a button is released and pressed again, the toggle bit is inverted.
+ If the toggle bit is set, the ``LIRC_SCANCODE_FLAG_TOGGLE`` is set.
+
+ The ``timestamp`` field is filled with the time nanoseconds
+ (in ``CLOCK_MONOTONIC``) when the scancode was decoded.
+
+.. _lirc-mode-mode2:
+
+``LIRC_MODE_MODE2``
+
+ The driver returns a sequence of pulse and space codes to userspace,
+ as a series of u32 values.
+
+ This mode is used only for IR receive.
+
+ The upper 8 bits determine the packet type, and the lower 24 bits
+ the payload. Use ``LIRC_VALUE()`` macro to get the payload, and
+ the macro ``LIRC_MODE2()`` will give you the type, which
+ is one of:
+
+ ``LIRC_MODE2_PULSE``
+
+ Signifies the presence of IR in microseconds, also known as *flash*.
+
+ ``LIRC_MODE2_SPACE``
+
+ Signifies absence of IR in microseconds, also known as *gap*.
+
+ ``LIRC_MODE2_FREQUENCY``
+
+ If measurement of the carrier frequency was enabled with
+ :ref:`lirc_set_measure_carrier_mode` then this packet gives you
+ the carrier frequency in Hertz.
+
+ ``LIRC_MODE2_TIMEOUT``
+
+ When the timeout set with :ref:`lirc_set_rec_timeout` expires due
+ to no IR being detected, this packet will be sent, with the number
+ of microseconds with no IR.
+
+ ``LIRC_MODE2_OVERFLOW``
+
+ Signifies that the IR receiver encounter an overflow, and some IR
+ is missing. The IR data after this should be correct again. The
+ actual value is not important, but this is set to 0xffffff by the
+ kernel for compatibility with lircd.
+
+.. _lirc-mode-pulse:
+
+``LIRC_MODE_PULSE``
+
+ In pulse mode, a sequence of pulse/space integer values are written to the
+ lirc device using :ref:`lirc-write`.
+
+ The values are alternating pulse and space lengths, in microseconds. The
+ first and last entry must be a pulse, so there must be an odd number
+ of entries.
+
+ This mode is used only for IR send.
+
+*************************************
+Data types used by LIRC_MODE_SCANCODE
+*************************************
+
+.. kernel-doc:: include/uapi/linux/lirc.h
+ :identifiers: lirc_scancode rc_proto
+
+********************
+BPF based IR decoder
+********************
+
+The kernel has support for decoding the most common
+:ref:`IR protocols <Remote_controllers_Protocols>`, but there
+are many protocols which are not supported. To support these, it is possible
+to load an BPF program which does the decoding. This can only be done on
+LIRC devices which support reading raw IR.
+
+First, using the `bpf(2)`_ syscall with the ``BPF_LOAD_PROG`` argument,
+program must be loaded of type ``BPF_PROG_TYPE_LIRC_MODE2``. Once attached
+to the LIRC device, this program will be called for each pulse, space or
+timeout event on the LIRC device. The context for the BPF program is a
+pointer to a unsigned int, which is a :ref:`LIRC_MODE_MODE2 <lirc-mode-mode2>`
+value. When the program has decoded the scancode, it can be submitted using
+the BPF functions ``bpf_rc_keydown()`` or ``bpf_rc_repeat()``. Mouse or pointer
+movements can be reported using ``bpf_rc_pointer_rel()``.
+
+Once you have the file descriptor for the ``BPF_PROG_TYPE_LIRC_MODE2`` BPF
+program, it can be attached to the LIRC device using the `bpf(2)`_ syscall.
+The target must be the file descriptor for the LIRC device, and the
+attach type must be ``BPF_LIRC_MODE2``. No more than 64 BPF programs can be
+attached to a single LIRC device at a time.

+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <unistd.h>
+
+.. c:function:: ssize_t read( int fd, void *buf, size_t count )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by ``open()``.
+
+``buf``
+ Buffer to be filled
+
+``count``
+ Max number of bytes to read
+
+Description
+===========
+
+:c:func:`read()` attempts to read up to ``count`` bytes from file
+descriptor ``fd`` into the buffer starting at ``buf``. If ``count`` is zero,
+:c:func:`read()` returns zero and has no other results. If ``count``
+is greater than ``SSIZE_MAX``, the result is unspecified.
+
+The exact format of the data depends on what :ref:`lirc_modes` a driver
+uses. Use :ref:`lirc_get_features` to get the supported mode, and use
+:ref:`lirc_set_rec_mode` set the current active mode.
+
+The mode :ref:`LIRC_MODE_MODE2 <lirc-mode-mode2>` is for raw IR,
+in which packets containing an unsigned int value describing an IR signal are
+read from the chardev.
+
+Alternatively, :ref:`LIRC_MODE_SCANCODE <lirc-mode-scancode>` can be available,
+in this mode scancodes which are either decoded by software decoders, or
+by hardware decoders. The :c:type:`rc_proto` member is set to the
+:ref:`IR protocol <Remote_controllers_Protocols>`
+used for transmission, and ``scancode`` to the decoded scancode,
+and the ``keycode`` set to the keycode or ``KEY_RESERVED``.
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success, the number of bytes read is returned. It is not an error if
+this number is smaller than the number of bytes requested, or the amount
+of data required for one frame. On error, -1 is returned, and the ``errno``
+variable is set appropriately.

+ File descriptor returned by open().
+
+``enable``
+ enable = 1 means enable wideband receiver, enable = 0 means disable
+ wideband receiver.
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Some receivers are equipped with special wide band receiver which is
+intended to be used to learn output of existing remote. This ioctl
+allows enabling or disabling it.
+
+This might be useful of receivers that have otherwise narrow band receiver
+that prevents them to be used with some remotes. Wide band receiver might
+also be more precise. On the other hand its disadvantage it usually
+reduced range of reception.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Wide band receiver might be implicitly enabled if you enable
+ carrier reports. In that case it will be disabled as soon as you disable
+ carrier reports. Trying to disable wide band receiver while carrier
+ reports are active will do nothing.
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.

+
+.. c:function:: ssize_t write( int fd, void *buf, size_t count )
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``fd``
+ File descriptor returned by ``open()``.
+
+``buf``
+ Buffer with data to be written
+
+``count``
+ Number of bytes at the buffer
+
+Description
+===========
+
+:c:func:`write()` writes up to ``count`` bytes to the device
+referenced by the file descriptor ``fd`` from the buffer starting at
+``buf``.
+
+The exact format of the data depends on what mode a driver is in, use
+:ref:`lirc_get_features` to get the supported modes and use
+:ref:`lirc_set_send_mode` set the mode.
+
+When in :ref:`LIRC_MODE_PULSE <lirc-mode-PULSE>` mode, the data written to
+the chardev is a pulse/space sequence of integer values. Pulses and spaces
+are only marked implicitly by their position. The data must start and end
+with a pulse, therefore, the data must always include an uneven number of
+samples. The write function blocks until the data has been transmitted
+by the hardware. If more data is provided than the hardware can send, the
+driver returns ``EINVAL``.
+
+When in :ref:`LIRC_MODE_SCANCODE <lirc-mode-scancode>` mode, one
+``struct lirc_scancode`` must be written to the chardev at a time, else
+``EINVAL`` is returned. Set the desired scancode in the ``scancode`` member,
+and the :ref:`IR protocol <Remote_controllers_Protocols>` in the
+:c:type:`rc_proto`: member. All other members must be
+set to 0, else ``EINVAL`` is returned. If there is no protocol encoder
+for the protocol or the scancode is not valid for the specified protocol,
+``EINVAL`` is returned. The write function blocks until the scancode
+is transmitted by the hardware.
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success, the number of bytes written is returned. It is not an error if
+this number is smaller than the number of bytes requested, or the amount
+of data required for one frame. On error, -1 is returned, and the ``errno``
+variable is set appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.

+Introduction
+************
+
+Currently, most analog and digital devices have a Infrared input for
+remote controllers. Each manufacturer has their own type of control. It
+is not rare for the same manufacturer to ship different types of
+controls, depending on the device.
+
+A Remote Controller interface is mapped as a normal evdev/input
+interface, just like a keyboard or a mouse. So, it uses all ioctls
+already defined for any other input devices.
+
+However, remove controllers are more flexible than a normal input
+device, as the IR receiver (and/or transmitter) can be used in
+conjunction with a wide variety of different IR remotes.
+
+In order to allow flexibility, the Remote Controller subsystem allows
+controlling the RC-specific attributes via
+:ref:`the sysfs class nodes <remote_controllers_sysfs_nodes>`.

+*****************************************
+Remote Controller Protocols and Scancodes
+*****************************************
+
+IR is encoded as a series of pulses and spaces, using a protocol. These
+protocols can encode e.g. an address (which device should respond) and a
+command: what it should do. The values for these are not always consistent
+across different devices for a given protocol.
+
+Therefore out the output of the IR decoder is a scancode; a single u32
+value. Using keymap tables this can be mapped to linux key codes.
+
+Other things can be encoded too. Some IR protocols encode a toggle bit; this
+is to distinguish whether the same button is being held down, or has been
+released and pressed again. If has been released and pressed again, the
+toggle bit will invert from one IR message to the next.
+
+Some remotes have a pointer-type device which can used to control the
+mouse; some air conditioning systems can have their target temperature
+target set in IR.
+
+The following are the protocols the kernel knows about and also lists
+how scancodes are encoded for each protocol.
+
+rc-5 (RC_PROTO_RC5)
+-------------------
+
+This IR protocol uses manchester encoding to encode 14 bits. There is a
+detailed description here https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc5.php.
+
+The scancode encoding is *not* consistent with the lirc daemon (lircd) rc5
+protocol, or the manchester BPF decoder.

+
+ * - 6
+
+ - 0 to 5
+
+ - Command
+
+There is a variant of rc5 called either rc5x or extended rc5
+where there the second stop bit is the 6th command bit, but inverted.
+This is done so it the scancodes and encoding is compatible with existing
+schemes. This bit is stored in bit 6 of the scancode, inverted. This is
+done to keep it compatible with plain rc-5 where there are two start bits.
+
+rc-5-sz (RC_PROTO_RC5_SZ)
+-------------------------
+This is much like rc-5 but one bit longer. The scancode is encoded
+differently.

+
+rc-5x-20 (RC_PROTO_RC5X_20)
+---------------------------
+
+This rc-5 extended to encoded 20 bits. The is a 3555 microseconds space
+after the 8th bit.

+
+ - 0 to 5
+
+ - Command
+
+
+jvc (RC_PROTO_JVC)
+------------------
+
+The jvc protocol is much like nec, without the inverted values. It is
+described here https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/jvc.php.
+
+The scancode is a 16 bits value, where the address is the lower 8 bits
+and the command the higher 8 bits; this is reversed from IR order.
+
+sony-12 (RC_PROTO_SONY12)
+-------------------------
+
+The sony protocol is a pulse-width encoding. There are three variants,
+which just differ in number of bits and scancode encoding.
+
+.. flat-table:: sony-12 bits scancode mapping

+

+-------------------------
+
+The sony protocol is a pulse-width encoding. There are three variants,
+which just differ in number of bits and scancode encoding.
+
+.. flat-table:: sony-12 bits scancode mapping
+ :widths: 1 1 2

+
+ * - 8
+
+ - 8 to 15
+
+ - extended bits
+
+nec (RC_PROTO_NEC)
+------------------
+
+The nec protocol encodes an 8 bit address and an 8 bit command. It is
+described here https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/nec.php. Note
+that the protocol sends least significant bit first.
+
+As a check, the nec protocol sends the address and command twice; the
+second time it is inverted. This is done for verification.
+
+A plain nec IR message has 16 bits; the high 8 bits are the address
+and the low 8 bits are the command.
+
+nec-x (RC_PROTO_NECX)
+---------------------
+
+Extended nec has a 16 bit address and a 8 bit command. This is encoded
+as a 24 bit value as you would expect, with the lower 8 bits the command
+and the upper 16 bits the address.
+
+nec-32 (RC_PROTO_NEC32)
+-----------------------
+
+nec-32 does not send an inverted address or an inverted command; the
+entire message, all 32 bits, are used.
+
+For this to be decoded correctly, the second 8 bits must not be the
+inverted value of the first, and also the last 8 bits must not be the
+inverted value of the third 8 bit value.
+
+The scancode has a somewhat unusual encoding.
+
+.. flat-table:: nec-32 bits scancode mapping
+
+ * - nec-32 bits
+
+ - scancode bit
+
+ * - First 8 bits
+
+ - 16 to 23
+
+ * - Second 8 bits
+
+ - 24 to 31
+
+ * - Third 8 bits
+
+ - 0 to 7
+
+ * - Fourth 8 bits
+
+ - 8 to 15
+
+sanyo (RC_PROTO_SANYO)
+----------------------
+
+The sanyo protocol is like the nec protocol, but with 13 bits address
+rather than 8 bits. Both the address and the command are followed by
+their inverted versions, but these are not present in the scancodes.
+
+Bis 8 to 20 of the scancode is the 13 bits address, and the lower 8
+bits are the command.
+
+mcir2-kbd (RC_PROTO_MCIR2_KBD)
+------------------------------
+
+This protocol is generated by the Microsoft MCE keyboard for keyboard
+events. Refer to the ir-mce_kbd-decoder.c to see how it is encoded.
+
+mcir2-mse (RC_PROTO_MCIR2_MSE)
+------------------------------
+
+This protocol is generated by the Microsoft MCE keyboard for pointer
+events. Refer to the ir-mce_kbd-decoder.c to see how it is encoded.
+
+rc-6-0 (RC_PROTO_RC6_0)
+-----------------------
+
+This is the rc-6 in mode 0. rc-6 is described here
+https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc6.php.
+The scancode is the exact 16 bits as in the protocol. There is also a
+toggle bit.
+
+rc-6-6a-20 (RC_PROTO_RC6_6A_20)
+-------------------------------
+
+This is the rc-6 in mode 6a, 20 bits. rc-6 is described here
+https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc6.php.
+The scancode is the exact 20 bits
+as in the protocol. There is also a toggle bit.
+
+rc-6-6a-24 (RC_PROTO_RC6_6A_24)
+-------------------------------
+
+This is the rc-6 in mode 6a, 24 bits. rc-6 is described here
+https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc6.php.
+The scancode is the exact 24 bits
+as in the protocol. There is also a toggle bit.
+
+rc-6-6a-32 (RC_PROTO_RC6_6A_32)
+-------------------------------
+
+This is the rc-6 in mode 6a, 32 bits. rc-6 is described here
+https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc6.php.
+The upper 16 bits are the vendor,
+and the lower 16 bits are the vendor-specific bits. This protocol is
+for the non-Microsoft MCE variant (vendor != 0x800f).
+
+
+rc-6-mce (RC_PROTO_RC6_MCE)
+---------------------------
+
+This is the rc-6 in mode 6a, 32 bits. The upper 16 bits are the vendor,
+and the lower 16 bits are the vendor-specific bits. This protocol is
+for the Microsoft MCE variant (vendor = 0x800f). The toggle bit in the
+protocol itself is ignored, and the 16th bit should be takes as the toggle
+bit.
+
+sharp (RC_PROTO_SHARP)
+----------------------
+
+This is a protocol used by Sharp VCRs, is described here
+https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/sharp.php. There is a very long
+(40ms) space between the normal and inverted values, and some IR receivers
+cannot decode this.
+
+There is a 5 bit address and a 8 bit command. In the scancode the address is
+in bits 8 to 12, and the command in bits 0 to 7.
+
+xmp (RC_PROTO_XMP)
+------------------
+
+This protocol has several versions and only version 1 is supported. Refer
+to the decoder (ir-xmp-decoder.c) to see how it is encoded.
+
+
+cec (RC_PROTO_CEC)
+------------------
+
+This is not an IR protocol, this is a protocol over CEC. The CEC
+infrastructure uses rc-core for handling CEC commands, so that they
+can easily be remapped.
+
+imon (RC_PROTO_IMON)
+--------------------
+
+This protocol is used by Antec Veris/SoundGraph iMON remotes.
+
+The protocol
+describes both button presses and pointer movements. The protocol encodes
+31 bits, and the scancode is simply the 31 bits with the top bit always 0.
+
+rc-mm-12 (RC_PROTO_RCMM12)
+--------------------------
+
+The rc-mm protocol is described here
+https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rcmm.php. The scancode is simply
+the 12 bits.
+
+rc-mm-24 (RC_PROTO_RCMM24)
+--------------------------
+
+The rc-mm protocol is described here
+https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rcmm.php. The scancode is simply
+the 24 bits.
+
+rc-mm-32 (RC_PROTO_RCMM32)
+--------------------------
+
+The rc-mm protocol is described here
+https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rcmm.php. The scancode is simply
+the 32 bits.
+
+xbox-dvd (RC_PROTO_XBOX_DVD)
+----------------------------
+
+This protocol is used by Xbox DVD Remote, which was made for the original
+Xbox. There is no in-kernel decoder or encoder for this protocol. The usb
+device decodes the protocol. There is a BPF decoder available in v4l-utils.

+====================================
+
+Sets the scancode wakeup filter mask of bits to compare. Use in
+combination with ``/sys/class/rc/rcN/wakeup_filter`` to set the bits of
+the scancode which should be compared against the expected value to
+trigger a system wake event.
+
+If the hardware supports it and wakeup_filter_mask is not 0 then
+scancodes which match the filter will wake the system from e.g. suspend
+to RAM or power off. Otherwise the write will fail with an error.
+
+This value may be reset to 0 if the wakeup protocol is altered.

+************************
+Remote controller tables
+************************
+
+Unfortunately, for several years, there was no effort to create uniform
+IR keycodes for different devices. This caused the same IR keyname to be
+mapped completely differently on different IR devices. This resulted
+that the same IR keyname to be mapped completely different on different
+IR's. Due to that, V4L2 API now specifies a standard for mapping Media
+keys on IR.
+
+This standard should be used by both V4L/DVB drivers and userspace
+applications
+
+The modules register the remote as keyboard within the linux input
+layer. This means that the IR key strokes will look like normal keyboard
+key strokes (if CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBOARD is enabled). Using the event
+devices (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV) it is possible for applications to access
+the remote via /dev/input/event devices.
