drivers: staging: rtl8723bs: Fix locking in _rtw_join_timeout_handler()
Description d'origine
La description telle que publiée par la source (souvent en anglais).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers: staging: rtl8723bs: Fix locking in _rtw_join_timeout_handler()
Commit 041879b12ddb ("drivers: staging: rtl8192bs: Fix deadlock in
rtw_joinbss_event_prehandle()") besides fixing the deadlock also
modified rtw_join_timeout_handler() to use spin[un]lock_irq()
instead of spin_[un]lock_bh().
rtw_join_timeout_handler() calls rtw_do_join() which takes
pmlmepriv->scanned_queue.lock using spin[un]lock_bh(). This
spin_unlock_bh() call re-enables softirqs which triggers an oops in
kernel/softirq.c: __local_bh_enable_ip() when it calls
lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled():
[ 244.506087] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 0 at kernel/softirq.c:376 __local_bh_enable_ip+0xa6/0x100
...

This oops is causd by the switch to spin_[un]lock_irq() which disables
the IRQs for the entire duration of _rtw_join_timeout_handler().
Disabling the IRQs is not necessary since all code taking this lock
runs from either user contexts or from softirqs, switch back to
spin_[un]lock_bh() to fix this.
