Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
i2c: designware: amdisp: Fix resume-probe race condition issue<br />
<br />
Identified resume-probe race condition in kernel v7.0 with the commit<br />
38fa29b01a6a ("i2c: designware: Combine the init functions"),but this<br />
issue existed from the beginning though not detected.<br />
<br />
The amdisp i2c device requires ISP to be in power-on state for probe<br />
to succeed. To meet this requirement, this device is added to genpd<br />
to control ISP power using runtime PM. The pm_runtime_get_sync() called<br />
before i2c_dw_probe() triggers PM resume, which powers on ISP and also<br />
invokes the amdisp i2c runtime resume before the probe completes resulting<br />
in this race condition and a NULL dereferencing issue in v7.0<br />
<br />
Fix this race condition by using the genpd APIs directly during probe:<br />
- Call dev_pm_genpd_resume() to Power ON ISP before probe<br />
- Call dev_pm_genpd_suspend() to Power OFF ISP after probe<br />
- Set the device to suspended state with pm_runtime_set_suspended()<br />
- Enable runtime PM only after the device is fully initialized
