From 29009604ad4e3ef784fd9b9fef6f23610ddf633d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marek Vasut marex@denx.de Date: Mon, 20 Dec 2021 20:50:22 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: stm32/crc32 - Fix kernel BUG triggered in probe()
The include/linux/crypto.h struct crypto_alg field cra_driver_name description states "Unique name of the transformation provider. " ... " this contains the name of the chip or provider and the name of the transformation algorithm."
In case of the stm32-crc driver, field cra_driver_name is identical for all registered transformation providers and set to the name of the driver itself, which is incorrect. This patch fixes it by assigning a unique cra_driver_name to each registered transformation provider.
The kernel crash is triggered when the driver calls crypto_register_shashes() which calls crypto_register_shash(), which calls crypto_register_alg(), which calls __crypto_register_alg(), which returns -EEXIST, which is propagated back through this call chain. Upon -EEXIST from crypto_register_shash(), the crypto_register_shashes() starts unregistering the providers back, and calls crypto_unregister_shash(), which calls crypto_unregister_alg(), and this is where the BUG() triggers due to incorrect cra_refcnt.
