commit 816f318b2364262a51024096da7ca3b84e78e3b5 upstream.

When a seq-virmidi driver is initialized, it registers a rawmidi
instance with its callback to create an associated seq kernel client.
Currently it's done throughly in rawmidi's register_mutex context.
Recently it was found that this may lead to a deadlock another rawmidi
device that is being attached with the sequencer is accessed, as both
open with the same register_mutex.  This was actually triggered by
syzkaller, as Dmitry Vyukov reported:

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        ----                    ----

                                lock(&amp;grp-&gt;list_mutex);
   lock(register_mutex#5);

 *** DEADLOCK ***
======================================================

The fix is to simply move the registration parts in
snd_rawmidi_dev_register() to the outside of the register_mutex lock.
The lock is needed only to manage the linked list, and it's not
necessarily to cover the whole initialization process.

commit 81f577542af15640cbcb6ef68baa4caa610cbbfc upstream.

The rawmidi read and write functions manage runtime stream status
such as runtime-&gt;appl_ptr and runtime-&gt;avail.  These point where to
copy the new data and how many bytes have been copied (or to be
read).  The problem is that rawmidi read/write call copy_from_user()
or copy_to_user(), and the runtime spinlock is temporarily unlocked
and relocked while copying user-space.  Since the current code
advances and updates the runtime status after the spin unlock/relock,
the copy and the update may be asynchronous, and eventually
runtime-&gt;avail might go to a negative value when many concurrent
accesses are done.  This may lead to memory corruption in the end.

For fixing this race, in this patch, the status update code is
performed in the same lock before the temporary unlock.  Also, the
spinlock is now taken more widely in snd_rawmidi_kernel_read1() for
protecting more properly during the whole operation.

commit cc85f7a634cfaf9f0713c6aa06d08817424db37a upstream.

NULL user-space buffer can be passed even in a normal path, thus it's
not good to spew a kernel warning with stack trace at each time.
Just drop snd_BUG_ON() macro usage there.

In the former case, the reason is that virmidi has an open code
calling snd_rawmidi_transmit_ack() with the value calculated outside
the spinlock.   We may use snd_rawmidi_transmit() in a loop just for
consuming the input data, but even there, there is a race between
snd_rawmidi_transmit_peek() and snd_rawmidi_tranmit_ack().

Similarly in the latter case, it calls snd_rawmidi_transmit_peek() and
snd_rawmidi_tranmit_ack() separately without protection, so they are
racy as well.

The patch tries to address these issues by the following ways:
- Introduce the unlocked versions of snd_rawmidi_transmit_peek() and
  snd_rawmidi_transmit_ack() to be called inside the explicit lock.
- Rewrite snd_rawmidi_transmit() to be race-free (the former case).
- Make the split calls (the latter case) protected in the rawmidi spin
  lock.

The kernel memory allocators already report the errors when the
requested allocation fails, thus we don't need to warn it again in
each caller side.

Now that all callers have been replaced with
snd_device_register_for_dev(), let's drop the obsolete device
registration code and concentrate only on the code handling struct
device directly.  That said,

- remove the old snd_device_register(),
- rename snd_device_register_for_dev() with snd_device_register(),
- drop superfluous arguments from snd_device_register(),
- change snd_unregister_device() to pass the device pointer directly

Like previous patches, this changes the device management for rawmidi,
embedding the struct device into struct snd_rawmidi.  The required
change is more or less same as hwdep device.

The currently unused dev field is reused as the new embedded struct
field now.
