* [PATCH v7] usb: gadget: udc: renesas_usb3: Fix use after free bug in renesas_usb3_remove due to race condition @ 2023-03-16 18:08 Zheng Wang 2023-03-16 19:07 ` Greg KH 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: Zheng Wang @ 2023-03-16 18:08 UTC (permalink / raw) To: gregkh Cc: skhan, p.zabel, biju.das.jz, phil.edworthy, linux-usb, linux-kernel, hackerzheng666, 1395428693sheep, alex000young, yoshihiro.shimoda.uh, Zheng Wang

In renesas_usb3_probe, role_work is bound with renesas_usb3_role_work. renesas_usb3_start will be called to start the work.

If we remove the driver which will call usbhs_remove, there may be an unfinished work. The possible sequence is as follows:

Fix it by canceling the work before cleanup in the renesas_usb3_remove.

Note that removing a driver is a root-only operation, and should never happen.
