During probing phase of a gspca driver in "gspca_dev_probe2()", the
stv06xx subdrivers have certain sensor variants (namely, hdcs_1x00,
hdcs_1020 and pb_0100) that allocate memory for their respective sensor
which is passed to the "sd->sensor_priv" field. During the same probe
routine, after "sensor_priv" allocation, there are chances of later
functions invoked to fail which result in the probing routine to end
immediately via "goto out" path. While doing so, the memory allocated
earlier for the sensor isn't taken care of resulting in memory leak.
Fix this by adding operations to the gspca, stv06xx and down to the
sensor levels to free this allocated memory during gspca probe failure.
-
The current level of hierarchy looks something like this:
gspca (main driver) represented by struct gspca_dev
|
___________|_____________________________________
| | | | | | (subdrivers)
| represented
stv06xx by "struct sd"
|
_______________|_______________
| | | | | (sensors)
| |
hdcs_1x00/1020 pb01000
|_________________|
|
These three sensor variants
allocate memory for
"sd->sensor_priv" field.
Here, "struct gspca_dev" is the representation used in the top level. In
the sub-driver levels, "gspca_dev" pointer is cast to "struct sd*",
something like this:
struct sd *sd = (struct sd *)gspca_dev;
This is possible because the first field of "struct sd" is "gspca_dev":
struct sd {
struct gspca_dev;
.
.
}
Therefore, to deallocate the "sd->sensor_priv" fields from
"gspca_dev_probe2()" which is at the top level, the patch creates
operations for the subdrivers and sensors to be invoked from the gspca
driver levels. These operations essentially free the "sd->sensor_priv"
which were allocated by the "config" and "init_controls" operations in
the case of stv06xx sub-drivers and the sensor levels.
This patch doesn't affect other sub-drivers or even sensors who never
allocate memory to "sensor_priv". It has also been tested by syzbot and
it returned an "OK" result.

Oh, my bad. Thanks for pointing it out. The syzkaller page of this bug
hasn't been updated. I will send an e-mail and mark it as fixed.

Pavel,
Does the above handle the other drivers hdcs_1x00/1020 and pb01000?
Atul's patch handles those cases. If thoese code paths need to be fixes,
Atul could do a patch on top of yours perhaps?
thanks,

It's not my patch. I've sent a patch sometime ago, but it was reject
by Mauro (we had a small discussion on linux-media mailing-list), then
Hans wrote the patch based on my leak discoverage.
I added Hans to CC, maybe, he will help :)

Yes, my patch does the same as this patch, just a bit more concise.
I'll drop this one.
