For an USB-specific HID device, size of output FIFO should
be HID_OUTPUT_FIFO_SIZE rather than HID_CONTROL_FIFO_SIZE.

When HID device is stalled or disconnected, there might be an
unsent (i.e. never passed via 'hid_submit_out()') output reports.
So free their raw buffers in 'usbhid_stop()' to avoid memory leaks.
This is a companion of commit f7744fa16b96 ("HID: usbhid: free
raw_report buffers in usbhid_stop") and inspired by that one.

HID: usbhid: free unsent raw output reports in usbhid_stop()
When a HID device is stalled or disconnected, there might be unsent
output reports. This patch frees their raw buffers in usbhid_stop()
to avoid memory leaks.
Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=e2c057ea576d2644e2be
[Severity: High]
Could emptying the out queue here cause a NULL pointer dereference if an
output URB is currently in-flight?
If an in-flight URB is canceled by the subsequent usb_kill_urb() call, it
will synchronously trigger the completion handler hid_irq_out() with status
-ENOENT.
Unlike hid_ctrl(), hid_irq_out() unconditionally increments outtail:
drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c:hid_irq_out() {
...
} else {
usbhid->outtail = (usbhid->outtail + 1) & (HID_OUTPUT_FIFO_SIZE - 1);
if (usbhid->outhead != usbhid->outtail &&
hid_submit_out(hid) == 0) {
...
}
If usbhid_stop() has already made outtail equal to outhead, this increment
pushes outtail out of bounds. The outhead != outtail check will then pass,
and it will call hid_submit_out() which will dereference a NULL report:
drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c:hid_submit_out() {
...
report = usbhid->out[usbhid->outtail].report;
usbhid->urbout->transfer_buffer_length = hid_report_len(report);
...
}

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but while adjusting the output
FIFO size, I noticed a pre-existing memory leak related to how these output
and control queues are cleaned up.
In drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c, when a device is physically unplugged,
the URB completion callbacks receive an error and handle it by clearing
the FIFOs.
For example, in hid_irq_out():
if (unplug) {
usbhid->outtail = usbhid->outhead;
} else {
And similarly in hid_ctrl():
if (unplug) {
usbhid->ctrltail = usbhid->ctrlhead;
} else if (usbhid->ctrlhead != usbhid->ctrltail) {
Does this drop the queued items without calling kfree() on their
dynamically allocated raw_report buffers?
Additionally, during driver unbind, usbhid_stop() handles draining the
control queue and correctly freeing raw_report:
while (usbhid->ctrltail != usbhid->ctrlhead) {
if (usbhid->ctrl[usbhid->ctrltail].dir == USB_DIR_OUT) {
kfree(usbhid->ctrl[usbhid->ctrltail].raw_report);
usbhid->ctrl[usbhid->ctrltail].raw_report = NULL;
}
...
}
However, it completely omits an equivalent cleanup loop for the output
queue (usbhid->out).
Could this repeatedly leak memory if userspace or the input subsystem
queues output reports while device unbinds or disconnects occur?
