Hi Sascha, Greg, I have a breakage in 6.2-rc* that I eventually bisected to this commit, on a Ingenic SoC (using the jz4740 musb driver) with ECM or RNDIS configured through gadgetfs. When plugging the board to my PC, the USB network interface is recognized, but 'ip link' sees it as 'NO-CARRIER'. With this commit reverted on v6.2-rc5, everything works fine.

[CCing the regression list, as it should be in the loop for regressions: https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/reporting-regressions.html] Thanks for the report. To be sure the issue doesn't fall through the cracks unnoticed, I'm adding it to regzbot, the Linux kernel regression tracking bot: #regzbot ^introduced 321b59870f850 #regzbot title usb: gadget: USB network interface is recognized, but 'ip link' sees it as 'NO-CARRIER' #regzbot ignore-activity This isn't a regression? This issue or a fix for it are already discussed somewhere else? It was fixed already? You want to clarify when the regression started to happen? Or point out I got the title or something else totally wrong? Then just reply and tell me -- ideally while also telling regzbot about it, as explained by the page listed in the footer of this mail. Developers: When fixing the issue, remember to add 'Link:' tags pointing to the report (the parent of this mail). See page linked in footer for details.

I don't know which. One thing would be to couple the lifetime of the ethernet device to the lifetime of the UDC, but the result would look different to userspace, so wouldn't be ideal either. Note the original reason doing this change was that we saw backtraces when doing a 'reboot -f', the 'rmmod dummy_hcd' was just an easy reproducer for the problem. One other possibility might be to take a reference to the UDC while it is in use so that the module can't be rmmoded. Not sure if that fixes my original problem though. Sascha

Does the use-after-free error occur when you try to dereference a dev->parent pointer in the ethernet device? If that's so, then taking a reference (i.e. get_device()) on the parent device should fix the problem. If not, maybe you can give a more detailed guide as to what's going wrong. Alan Stern

[TLDR: This mail in primarily relevant for Linux regression tracking. A change or fix related to the regression discussed in this thread was posted or applied, but it did not use a Link: tag to point to the report, as Linus and the documentation call for. Things happen, no worries -- but now the regression tracking bot needs to be told manually about the fix.

I have an even simpler reproducer on Pinephone Pro/RK3399 SoC. All it takes to trigger the use after free and kernel panic in my case is to plug in a USB dock to make DWC3 DRD switch to host mode and then unplug it to make it switch back to peripheral mode. This triggers a call to dwc3_gadget_exit and then to dwc3_gadget_init later on https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/usb/dwc3/gadget.c#L4546 Then symlink to the net device becames broken in sysfs: https://megous.com/dl/tmp/3d8061f1749a7b2b.png And after this happens, there's a kernel panic when removing the rndis gadget configuration from configfs: https://paste.mozilla.org/Z5DFP9BV (and possibly other issues, but the kernel panic is the most noticable :)) Applaying this patch makes the issue go away. So there definitely seems to be some device lifetime issue somewhere in there. kind regards, o. > Accessing the ethernet device with commands like: > > ip --details link show usb0 > > will result in a KASAN splat: > > ================================================================== > BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in if_nlmsg_size+0x3e8/0x528 > Read of size 4 at addr c5c84754 by task ip/357 > > CPU: 3 PID: 357 Comm: ip Not tainted 6.1.0-rc3-00013-gd14953726b24-dirty #324 > Hardware name: Freescale i.MX6 Quad/DualLite (Device Tree) > unwind_backtrace from show_stack+0x10/0x14 > show_stack from dump_stack_lvl+0x58/0x70 > dump_stack_lvl from print_report+0x134/0x4d4 > print_report from kasan_report+0x78/0x10c > kasan_report from if_nlmsg_size+0x3e8/0x528 > if_nlmsg_size from rtnl_getlink+0x2b4/0x4d0 > rtnl_getlink from rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x1f4/0x674 > rtnetlink_rcv_msg from netlink_rcv_skb+0xb4/0x1f8 > netlink_rcv_skb from netlink_unicast+0x294/0x478 > netlink_unicast from netlink_sendmsg+0x328/0x640 > netlink_sendmsg from ____sys_sendmsg+0x2a4/0x3b4 > ____sys_sendmsg from ___sys_sendmsg+0xc8/0x12c > ___sys_sendmsg from sys_sendmsg+0xa0/0x120 > sys_sendmsg from ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c > > Solve this by not setting the parent of the ethernet device. > > Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de> > --- > drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c | 4 ---- > 1 file changed, 4 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c b/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c > index e06022873df16..8f12f3f8f6eeb 100644 > --- a/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c > +++ b/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c > @@ -798,7 +798,6 @@ struct eth_dev *gether_setup_name(struct usb_gadget *g, > net->max_mtu = GETHER_MAX_MTU_SIZE; > > dev->gadget = g; > - SET_NETDEV_DEV(net, &g->dev); > SET_NETDEV_DEVTYPE(net, &gadget_type); > > status = register_netdev(net); > @@ -873,8 +872,6 @@ int gether_register_netdev(struct net_device *net) > struct usb_gadget *g; > int status; > > - if (!net->dev.parent) > - return -EINVAL; > dev = netdev_priv(net); > g = dev->gadget; > > @@ -905,7 +902,6 @@ void gether_set_gadget(struct net_device *net, struct usb_gadget *g) > > dev = netdev_priv(net); > dev->gadget = g; > - SET_NETDEV_DEV(net, &g->dev); > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(gether_set_gadget); > > -- > 2.30.2 >

So there definitely seems to > be some device lifetime issue somewhere in there. Looks like this patch just masks an underlying issue. Eg. with DWC3 as UDC, rndis_bind/rndis_unbind is called multiple times (each time USB role switches from host to peripheral). This is because DWC3 re-creates the gadget device each time. During every call rndis_bind gets a pointer to a newly created gadget, but gether_set_gadget() is only called: if (!rndis_opts->bound) { ... } which only happens on the first call to rndis_bind. On any further calls to rndis_bind(), gether_set_gadget is not called, because rndis_opts->bound is already set and thus netdev private data keep pointing to some old, deleted gadget device. https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_rndis.c#L704 https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c#L890 It looks like this whole code was not really written with assumption that gadget devices can be deleted and re-added like this. Not sure where the bug really is... if f_* drivers should better handle gadget changes, or DWC3 should not re-create the gadget like it does on mode changes, or elsewhere. kind regards, o. > kind regards, > o. > > > Accessing the ethernet device with commands like: > > > > ip --details link show usb0 > > > > will result in a KASAN splat: > > > > ================================================================== > > BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in if_nlmsg_size+0x3e8/0x528 > > Read of size 4 at addr c5c84754 by task ip/357 > > > > CPU: 3 PID: 357 Comm: ip Not tainted 6.1.0-rc3-00013-gd14953726b24-dirty #324 > > Hardware name: Freescale i.MX6 Quad/DualLite (Device Tree) > > unwind_backtrace from show_stack+0x10/0x14 > > show_stack from dump_stack_lvl+0x58/0x70 > > dump_stack_lvl from print_report+0x134/0x4d4 > > print_report from kasan_report+0x78/0x10c > > kasan_report from if_nlmsg_size+0x3e8/0x528 > > if_nlmsg_size from rtnl_getlink+0x2b4/0x4d0 > > rtnl_getlink from rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x1f4/0x674 > > rtnetlink_rcv_msg from netlink_rcv_skb+0xb4/0x1f8 > > netlink_rcv_skb from netlink_unicast+0x294/0x478 > > netlink_unicast from netlink_sendmsg+0x328/0x640 > > netlink_sendmsg from ____sys_sendmsg+0x2a4/0x3b4 > > ____sys_sendmsg from ___sys_sendmsg+0xc8/0x12c > > ___sys_sendmsg from sys_sendmsg+0xa0/0x120 > > sys_sendmsg from ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c > > > > Solve this by not setting the parent of the ethernet device. > > > > Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de> > > --- > > drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c | 4 ---- > > 1 file changed, 4 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c b/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c > > index e06022873df16..8f12f3f8f6eeb 100644 > > --- a/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c > > +++ b/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_ether.c > > @@ -798,7 +798,6 @@ struct eth_dev *gether_setup_name(struct usb_gadget *g, > > net->max_mtu = GETHER_MAX_MTU_SIZE; > > > > dev->gadget = g; > > - SET_NETDEV_DEV(net, &g->dev); > > SET_NETDEV_DEVTYPE(net, &gadget_type); > > > > status = register_netdev(net); > > @@ -873,8 +872,6 @@ int gether_register_netdev(struct net_device *net) > > struct usb_gadget *g; > > int status; > > > > - if (!net->dev.parent) > > - return -EINVAL; > > dev = netdev_priv(net); > > g = dev->gadget; > > > > @@ -905,7 +902,6 @@ void gether_set_gadget(struct net_device *net, struct usb_gadget *g) > > > > dev = netdev_priv(net); > > dev->gadget = g; > > - SET_NETDEV_DEV(net, &g->dev); > > } > > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(gether_set_gadget); > > > > -- > > 2.30.2 > >

The UDC is not a suitable parent of the net device as the UDC can change or vanish during the lifecycle of the ethernet gadget. This can be illustrated with the following: mkdir -p /sys/kernel/config/usb_gadget/mygadget cd /sys/kernel/config/usb_gadget/mygadget mkdir -p configs/c.1/strings/0x409 echo "C1:Composite Device" > configs/c.1/strings/0x409/configuration mkdir -p functions/ecm.usb0 ln -s functions/ecm.usb0 configs/c.1/ echo "dummy_udc.0" > UDC rmmod dummy_hcd The 'rmmod' removes the UDC from the just created gadget, leaving the still existing net device with a no longer existing parent. Accessing the ethernet device with commands like: ip --details link show usb0 will result in a KASAN splat: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in if_nlmsg_size+0x3e8/0x528 Read of size 4 at addr c5c84754 by task ip/357 CPU: 3 PID: 357 Comm: ip Not tainted 6.1.0-rc3-00013-gd14953726b24-dirty #324 Hardware name: Freescale i.MX6 Quad/DualLite (Device Tree) unwind_backtrace from show_stack+0x10/0x14 show_stack from dump_stack_lvl+0x58/0x70 dump_stack_lvl from print_report+0x134/0x4d4 print_report from kasan_report+0x78/0x10c kasan_report from if_nlmsg_size+0x3e8/0x528 if_nlmsg_size from rtnl_getlink+0x2b4/0x4d0 rtnl_getlink from rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x1f4/0x674 rtnetlink_rcv_msg from netlink_rcv_skb+0xb4/0x1f8 netlink_rcv_skb from netlink_unicast+0x294/0x478 netlink_unicast from netlink_sendmsg+0x328/0x640 netlink_sendmsg from ____sys_sendmsg+0x2a4/0x3b4 ____sys_sendmsg from ___sys_sendmsg+0xc8/0x12c ___sys_sendmsg from sys_sendmsg+0xa0/0x120 sys_sendmsg from ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c Solve this by not setting the parent of the ethernet device.
