Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 24/30] drivers: watchdog: rdc321x_wdt: Fix race condition bugs
Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2020 20:10:38 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201027001044.1027349-24-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201027001044.1027349-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Madhuparna Bhowmik <madhuparnabhowmik10@gmail.com>
[ Upstream commit 4b2e7f99cdd314263c9d172bc17193b8b6bba463 ]
In rdc321x_wdt_probe(), rdc321x_wdt_device.queue is initialized
after misc_register(), hence if ioctl is called before its
initialization which can call rdc321x_wdt_start() function,
it will see an uninitialized value of rdc321x_wdt_device.queue,
hence initialize it before misc_register().
Also, rdc321x_wdt_device.default_ticks is accessed in reset()
function called from write callback, thus initialize it before
misc_register().
