Re: [PATCH 1/2] bluetooth: hci_ldisc: fix NULL-pointer dereference on tty_close

Hi Johan,
quoted hunk ↗ jump to hunk
Do not close protocol driver until device has been unregistered.

This fixes a race between tty_close and hci_dev_open which can result in
a NULL-pointer dereference.

The line discipline closes the protocol driver while we may still have
hci_dev_open sleeping on the req_lock mutex resulting in a NULL-pointer
dereference when lock is acquired and hci_init_req called.

Bug is 100% reproducible using hciattach and a disconnected serial port:

0. # hciattach -n ttyO1 any noflow

1. hci_dev_open called from hci_power_on grabs req lock
2. hci_init_req executes but device fails to initialise (times out
   eventually)
3. hci_dev_open is called from hci_sock_ioctl and sleeps on req lock
4. hci_uart_tty_close detaches protocol driver and cancels init req
5. hci_dev_open (1) releases req lock
6. hci_dev_open (3) grabs req lock, calls hci_init_req, which triggers oops
   when request is prepared in hci_uart_send_frame

what kernel version is this against? Our changes in bluetooth-next fixed
some of the destruct handling.

Also hci_unregister_dev should be calling the destruct handler and thus
your change is now accessing hu but it got freed already.
