[PATCH 1/1] r8152: fix NULL pointer dereference in r8152_poll

From: Petr Vorel <hidden>

commit 7489bdadb7d1 (r8152: check rx after napi is enabled) causes null
pointer dereference when using device as under root:

 # rmmod r8152 # or lsusb -v

NOTE: This is just a workaround, I suppose, there is better way how to fix that
(which allows keeping scheduling the napi for rx after napi_enable()).

The proper work around is to enclose the napi_schedule() in a
local_bh_enable()/local_bh_disable()  pair.

Unfortunately this doesn't work. Code in r8152.c doesn't use local_bh_enable()/local_bh_disable(). I tried to lock it with spin_lock_bh()/spin_unlock_bh() and with mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock() but neither work.


Kind regards,

The local_bh_disable() / local_bh_enable() definitely is the right
answer to the issue you described.

It does not matter what code in r8152.c currently does.

You also have to protect other napi_schedule(), like the ones in
rtl_work_func_t() or rtl8152_post_reset()

I've tested that before :-). I'll be more precise what "not working" means: it fixes
invalid pointer issue, but kernel crashes for different reason:

[PATCH net] r8152: fix the list rx_done may be used without initialization

From: Hayes Wang <hidden>
Date: 2017-03-14 06:17:16

The list rx_done would be initialized when the linking on occurs.
Therefore, if a napi is scheduled without any linking on before,
the following kernel panic would happen.
