Subject: SPI: alternative fix for spi_busnum_to_master

If a SPI master device exists, udev (udevtrigger) causes kernel crash,
due to wrong kobj pointer in kobject_uevent_env().  This problem was
not in 2.6.19.

The backtrace (on MIPS) was:
[<8024db6c>] kobject_uevent_env+0x54c/0x5e8
[<802a8264>] store_uevent+0x1c/0x3c  (in drivers/class.c)

[<80181cdc>] sys_write+0x54/0xa0
[<8010dae4>] stack_done+0x20/0x3c

flush_write_buffer() passes kobject of spi_master_class.subsys to
subsys_addr_store(), then subsys_addr_store() passes a pointer to a
struct subsystem to store_uevent() which expects a pointer to a struct
class_device.  The problem seems subsys_attr_store() called instead of
class_device_attr_store().

This mismatch was caused by commit
3bd0f6943520e459659d10f3282285e43d3990f1, which overrides kset of
master class.  This made spi_master_class.subsys.kset.ktype NULL so
subsys_sysfs_ops is used instead of class_dev_sysfs_ops.

The commit was to fix spi_busnum_to_master().  Here is a patch fixes
this function in other way, just searching children list of
class_device.

No, with this rename support lurking, checking names becomes risky.

Indeed the check can be omitted.  Should I send a new patch just
moving class_device_get() into "if (master->bus_num == bus_num)"
block?

The crashing with udev is 2.6.20 regression so I wish this fixed very

That "continue" case doesn't seem like it should be possible... but
at any rate, the "get" can be deferred until the relevent class
device is known, since that _valid_ handle can't disappear so long
as that semaphore is held.  And if you find the right device but

Something like a class_find_device() would be the best way to solve

 Looks just a bit iffy ... though, thanks for helping to finally
 sort this out!

Well, so previous patch (which was checking class_id string) would be
preferred?

  +   cdev = class_device_get(cdev);
  +   if (!cdev)
  +   continue;
 
 That continue case doesn't seem like it should be possible... but

Indeed the check can be omitted.  Should I send a new patch just
moving class_device_get() into if (master-bus_num == bus_num)
block?

The crashing with udev is 2.6.20 regression so I wish this fixed very
soon.  Thank you for review.

Here is a revised version.  The children list of spi_master_class
contains only spi_master class so we can just compare bus_num member
instead of class_id string.


Subject: SPI: alternative fix for spi_busnum_to_master

If a SPI master device exists, udev (udevtrigger) causes kernel crash,
due to wrong kobj pointer in kobject_uevent_env().  This problem was
not in 2.6.19.

The backtrace (on MIPS) was:
[<8024db6c>] kobject_uevent_env+0x54c/0x5e8
[<802a8264>] store_uevent+0x1c/0x3c  (in drivers/class.c)
[<801cb14c>] subsys_attr_store+0x2c/0x50
[<801cb80c>] flush_write_buffer+0x38/0x5c
[<801cb900>] sysfs_write_file+0xd0/0x190
[<80181444>] vfs_write+0xc4/0x1a0
[<80181cdc>] sys_write+0x54/0xa0
[<8010dae4>] stack_done+0x20/0x3c

flush_write_buffer() passes kobject of spi_master_class.subsys to
subsys_addr_store(), then subsys_addr_store() passes a pointer to a
struct subsystem to store_uevent() which expects a pointer to a struct
class_device.  The problem seems subsys_attr_store() called instead of
class_device_attr_store().

This mismatch was caused by commit
3bd0f6943520e459659d10f3282285e43d3990f1, which overrides kset of
master class.  This made spi_master_class.subsys.kset.ktype NULL so
subsys_sysfs_ops is used instead of class_dev_sysfs_ops.

The commit was to fix spi_busnum_to_master().  Here is a patch fixes
this function in other way, just searching children list of
class_device.
