Title
accel/qaic: Handle DBC deactivation if the owner went away
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/qaic: Handle DBC deactivation if the owner went away
When a DBC is released, the device sends a QAIC_TRANS_DEACTIVATE_FROM_DEV
transaction to the host over the QAIC_CONTROL MHI channel. QAIC handles
this by calling decode_deactivate() to release the resources allocated for
that DBC. Since that handling is done in the qaic_manage_ioctl() context,
if the user goes away before receiving and handling the deactivation, the
host will be out-of-sync with the DBCs available for use, and the DBC
resources will not be freed unless the device is removed. If another user
loads and requests to activate a network, then the device assigns the same
DBC to that network, QAIC will "indefinitely" wait for dbc->in_use = false,
leading the user process to hang.
As a solution to this, handle QAIC_TRANS_DEACTIVATE_FROM_DEV transactions
that are received after the user has gone away.
