'struct tty_ldisc_ops' is not modified in this driver. Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so increases overall security, especially when the structure holds some function pointers.

Both nfc_hci_recv_from_llc() and nci_hci_data_received_cb() read
packet->header from skb->data at function entry without first checking
that the buffer holds at least one byte. A malicious NFC peer can send
a 0-byte HCP frame that passes through the SHDLC layer and reaches
these functions, causing an out-of-bounds heap read of packet->header.
The same 0-byte frame, if queued as a non-final fragment, also causes
the reassembly loop to underflow msg_len to UINT_MAX, triggering
skb_over_panic() when the reassembled skb is written.
Fix this by adding a pskb_may_pull() check at the entry of each
function before packet->header is first accessed. The existing
pskb_may_pull() checks before the reassembled hcp_skb is cast to
struct hcp_packet remain in place to guard the 2-byte HCP message
header.

nci_close_device() flushes rx_wq and tx_wq while holding req_lock.
This causes a circular locking dependency because nci_rx_work()
running on rx_wq can end up taking req_lock too:
nci_rx_work -> nci_rx_data_packet -> nci_data_exchange_complete
-> __sk_destruct -> rawsock_destruct -> nfc_deactivate_target
-> nci_deactivate_target -> nci_request -> mutex_lock(&ndev->req_lock)
Move the flush of rx_wq after req_lock has been released.
This should safe (I think) because NCI_UP has already been cleared
and the transport is closed, so the work will see it and return
-ENETDOWN.
NIPA has been hitting this running the nci selftest with a debug
kernel on roughly 4% of the runs.

Move clear_bit(NCI_DATA_EXCHANGE) before invoking the data exchange
callback in nci_data_exchange_complete().
The callback (e.g. rawsock_data_exchange_complete) may immediately
schedule another data exchange via schedule_work(tx_work). On a
multi-CPU system, tx_work can run and reach nci_transceive() before
the current nci_data_exchange_complete() clears the flag, causing
test_and_set_bit(NCI_DATA_EXCHANGE) to return -EBUSY and the new
transfer to fail.
This causes intermittent flakes in nci/nci_dev in NIPA:
# # RUN NCI.NCI1_0.t4t_tag_read ...
# # t4t_tag_read: Test terminated by timeout
# # FAIL NCI.NCI1_0.t4t_tag_read
# not ok 3 NCI.NCI1_0.t4t_tag_read

nci_transceive() takes ownership of the skb passed by the caller,
but the -EPROTO, -EINVAL, and -EBUSY error paths return without
freeing it.
Due to issues clearing NCI_DATA_EXCHANGE fixed by subsequent changes
the nci/nci_dev selftest hits the error path occasionally in NIPA,
and kmemleak detects leaks:

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org>
Since commit 9c328f54741b ("net: nfc: nci: Add parameter validation for
packet data") communication with nci nfc chips is not working any more.
The mentioned commit tries to fix access of uninitialized data, but
failed to understand that in some cases the data packet is of variable
length and can therefore not be compared to the maximum packet length
given by the sizeof(struct).
