From c130b666a9a711f985a0a44b58699ebe14bb7245 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi Date: Wed, 28 Dec 2016 16:42:00 -0200 Subject: [PATCH] 8250_pci: Fix potential use-after-free in error path Commit f209fa03fc9d ("serial: 8250_pci: Detach low-level driver during PCI error recovery") introduces a potential use-after-free in case the pciserial_init_ports call in serial8250_io_resume fails, which may happen if a memory allocation fails or if the .init quirk failed for whatever reason). If this happen, further pci_get_drvdata will return a pointer to freed memory. This patch reworks the PCI recovery resume hook to restore the old priv structure in this case, which should be ok, since the ports were already detached. Such error during recovery causes us to give up on the recovery.
