2026-08-13ALSA: seq: midi: Serialize input teardown with event_inputJohn Keeping1-6/+31
snd_midi_input_event() must not be running while a rawmidi substream is closing, since this can lead to the trigger state becoming out-of-step through this sequence in snd_rawmidi_input_trigger(): snd_rawmidi_input_trigger(up=0) snd_midi_input_event() -> snd_rawmidi_kernel_read() -> snd_rawmidi_input_trigger(up=1) -> cancel_work_sync() which ends with the underlying device being active unexpectedly. When this is called from close_substream(), further input can re-trigger the input event leaving it running after rawmidi_release_priv() has set rfile->rmidi to NULL which leads to: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000000b0 Call trace: snd_midi_input_event+0x3c/0x134 [snd_seq_midi] (P) snd_rawmidi_input_event_work+0x1c/0x2c process_one_work+0x150/0x3a4 worker_thread+0x190/0x318 Apply a similar approach to commit ef7607ab1c8ad ("ALSA: seq: midi: Serialize output teardown with event_input") which fixed the same issue in the output direction, but updated to use RCU following Takashi Iwai's proposed follow-on patch [1]. With this change in place, midisynth_unsubscribe() clears the input file so snd_midi_input_event() will not re-trigger the stream and will be quiesced by the cancel_work_sync() in snd_rawmidi_input_trigger().

2026-08-13ALSA: seq: midi: Optimize event_input locking with RCUTakashi Iwai1-13/+11
The recent fix for serializing the output teardown introduced a spinlock invocation at every MIDI output event via event_process_midi. Since this is a hot path, let's do performance optimization with RCU. The new output_substream __rcu pointer is published via rcu_assign_pointer() in midisynth_use() after output_rfile is set, and cleared in midisynth_unuse() before the resource teardown. event_process_midi() reads it under rcu_read_lock() and bumps output_use_lock inside that section, which is necessary to close the window between the pointer dereference and the refcount increment. midisynth_unuse() calls synchronize_rcu() before snd_use_lock_sync(): this guarantees that any reader who obtained a non-NULL pointer has already called atomic_inc (output_use_lock), so the subsequent snd_use_lock_sync() sees the correct in-flight count.

2026-08-12ALSA: seq: Drop the dead struct snd_seq_event_bounceHyeongJun An1-3/+2
The struct describes a bounce payload of an error code followed by the original event and its external data. No kernel has ever sent that. Before commit efc86691e4d8 ("ALSA: seq: Fix kernel heap address leak in bounce_error_event()") the kernel emitted no SNDRV_SEQ_EVENT_BOUNCE at all, and since then it sends the event record alone. Nothing has ever read it either. Its only accessor, snd_seq_event_bounce_ext_data(), has had no caller for the whole git history, and it did not even compile until commit c7e0b5bf9fff ("[ALSA] Remove xxx_t typedefs: Sequencer") incidentally repaired the type name it referred to, three years after the git import. Drop the accessor along with the struct. This removes a definition from a UAPI header. Since no kernel ever produced the layout, nothing can have parsed it, but a program that merely names the type will need to stop.

2026-08-11ALSA: seq: Don't leak the extension cell pointer in the bounce payloadHyeongJun An1-6/+10
The bounce_error_event() embeds the failed event in the bounce payload by pointing data.ext.ptr at it. When that event is a queued variable-length event, its own data.ext.ptr holds the address of its first extension cell, put there by snd_seq_event_dup(). The payload goes out verbatim through snd_seq_expand_var_event(), so the address reaches userspace. That is the same address commit 705dd6dcbc0e ("ALSA: seq: Clear variable event pointer on read") removed from the event header. The read path still clears it there, just above the call that expands the payload. Embed a sanitised copy instead, treated exactly as snd_seq_read() treats the header. A stack copy is enough because delivery is synchronous and snd_seq_event_dup() copies before returning. An unprivileged client reaches this by setting SNDRV_SEQ_FILTER_BOUNCE, queueing a variable-length event to a port that does not exist and reading the bounce back. Eight bytes on 64-bit, from its own pool.

2026-08-10ALSA: seq: Use RCU for the UMP client output substreamTakashi Iwai1-16/+22
The UMP sequencer client protects its output rawmidi file (out_rfile) with an rwlock (output_lock). seq_ump_process_event(), the port's event_input callback, reads out_rfile.output under read_lock on every delivered UMP event, while the open/close paths (serialized by ump->open_mutex) publish and clear out_rfile under write_lock. Output is opened/closed only on the subscribe/use lifecycle while delivery happens per event, so this is another read-mostly hot path. Convert it to RCU and drop the rwlock. out_rfile is an embedded struct rather than a pointer, so instead of restructuring it, add an RCU-protected shadow of the substream (out_substream) for the reader; out_rfile itself becomes writer-only state accessed solely under open_mutex. The reader now runs lock-free under rcu_read_lock() via rcu_dereference(), and open publishes the substream with rcu_assign_pointer(). On close the substream is cleared with rcu_assign_pointer(NULL) and the rawmidi is released only after synchronize_rcu(), so no reader in the delivery path can still be writing to the substream when snd_rawmidi_kernel_release() runs. Dropping write_lock_irqsave() from the writers is safe: they run in process context under open_mutex, and the sole atomic reader now uses RCU, which is IRQ-safe.

2026-08-10ALSA: seq: Use RCU for the virmidi file listTakashi Iwai1-8/+11
Each virmidi device keeps a list of its opened input files (filelist) protected by both an rwlock (filelist_lock) and a rw_semaphore (filelist_sem). snd_virmidi_dev_receive_event() walks the list on the sequencer event input path -- read_lock() when the event is delivered in atomic context, down_read() otherwise -- decoding each incoming event into the file's rawmidi buffer. The writers (input open/close) take both locks to add/remove entries. This is another typical dual-lock read-mostly pattern as the port subscriber list: files are opened/closed rarely while the receive callback runs per event. Let's convert the traversal to RCU and drop the rwlock; the existing filelist_sem keeps serializing the writers. The atomic input path now runs lock-free under rcu_read_lock(), and both readers share a single list_for_each_entry_rcu() (valid under the rwsem via lockdep_is_held()). The writers switch to list_add_tail_rcu() / list_del_rcu(). snd_virmidi_input_close() freed the entry (parser and struct) immediately after list_del. A concurrent lockless reader in the atomic path may still be dereferencing it, so the close path now waits for an RCU grace period after list_del_rcu() before freeing; synchronize_rcu() is used rather than kfree_rcu() because the parser must also be released after the grace period, not just the struct. Non-atomic readers are already excluded by the down_write, so only the atomic RCU readers need the grace period. Dropping write_lock_irq() from the writers is safe: no writer runs in atomic/IRQ context, and the sole atomic reader now uses RCU, which is IRQ-safe.

2026-08-10ALSA: seq: Use RCU for the client tableTakashi Iwai1-13/+30
The sequencer keeps a global table of clients (clienttab[]) indexed by client id, protected by the global clients_lock spinlock. The lookup snd_seq_client_use_ptr() reads a slot and takes a use_lock reference on the client, and this runs on the event delivery hot path: every dispatched event resolves its destination (and often source) client through it. The spinlock's only job on the read side is to make the "pointer is non-NULL" test and the reference increment indivisible with respect to the writer that nulls the slot and then drains the refcount. Clients come and go rarely but delivery happens constantly, so this is yet another read-mostly case as the port and subscriber lists. Convert the table to RCU: the read side now runs lock-free under rcu_read_lock() and takes the use_lock reference via rcu_dereference(), removing contention on the single global spinlock from the delivery path. The writers keep clients_lock (still needed to serialize slot allocation) and publish / unpublish via rcu_assign_pointer(); creation and destruction remain serialized at a higher level by register_mutex. As with the ports, the client is not freed via kfree_rcu(): its lifetime is governed by the use_lock refcount drained in seq_free_client1(). list_del under the old spinlock excluded a concurrent lookup from taking a new reference once the slot was nulled; rcu_assign_pointer(NULL) offers no such exclusion, so a reader still holding the old pointer can grab a reference after the unpublish. seq_free_client1() therefore calls synchronize_rcu() after nulling the slot and before snd_use_lock_sync(): once the grace period elapses no new reference can appear, and the existing drain then frees the client safely. clienttablock[] keeps its slot-reservation role (create/free are serialized by register_mutex); its read on the lookup path only gates module autoload, so a lockless read is harmless. Dropping the spinlock from the read path is safe: clients_lock is now taken only by the process-context writers, and the sole atomic reader uses RCU, which is IRQ-safe.

2026-08-10ALSA: seq: Use RCU for the client port listTakashi Iwai3-30/+23
Each sequencer client keeps a list of its ports (ports_list_head) protected by both an rwlock (ports_lock) and a mutex (ports_mutex). The rwlock is taken read-side on the event delivery hot path: snd_seq_port_use_ptr() walks the list to resolve a port on every dispatched event, while the mutex serializes port creation/deletion. Ports change rarely but delivery happens constantly, so this is the another read-mostly case as the port subscriber list. Convert the port list traversal to RCU and drop the rwlock entirely; the existing ports_mutex keeps serializing the writers. The atomic delivery path (snd_seq_port_use_ptr(), snd_seq_port_query_nearest()) now runs lock-free under rcu_read_lock() instead of contending on the shared rwlock. The writers switch to list_add_tail_rcu()/list_del_rcu(). snd_seq_insert_port() now stores the port number and name before publishing the node so RCU readers only ever observe a fully initialized port. One drawback is that snd_seq_delete_all_ports() drops the O(1) splice trick and unlinks each port individually, though: the splice repointed the last port's ->next away from the list head, which would send a concurrent lockless reader off the end of the list. Unlike the subscriber objects, ports are not freed via kfree_rcu(): port_delete() must drain outstanding use_lock references (and run private_free()) synchronously. The rwlock previously guaranteed that no reader could take a new use_lock reference once the port was unlinked -- list_del under write_lock excluded snd_use_lock_use() under read_lock. list_del_rcu() offers no such exclusion, so a reader still traversing the list can grab a reference after the unlink. port_delete() therefore calls synchronize_rcu() after the port has been unlinked and before snd_use_lock_sync(): once the grace period elapses no new reference can appear, and the existing drain then frees the port safely. Dropping write_lock_irq() from the writers is safe: no writer runs in atomic/IRQ context, and the sole atomic reader now uses RCU, which is IRQ-safe.

2026-08-10ALSA: seq: Use RCU for the port subscriber listTakashi Iwai3-44/+41
Each sequencer port keeps two subscriber groups (c_src and c_dest), each protected by both an rwlock (list_lock) and a rw_semaphore (list_mutex). The rwlock is taken read-side in the event delivery hot path (__deliver_to_subscribers()) for delivering every event to subscribers, while the mutex serializes subscribe/unsubscribe and covers the sleepable delivery and query walks. Subscriptions change rarely but delivery happens constantly, so this is a textbook read-mostly case. Convert the subscriber list traversal to RCU and drop the rwlock entirely while keeping the existing list_mutex for serializing the writers. The atomic delivery path now runs lock-free under rcu_read_lock() instead of contending on the shared rwlock. Along with the conversion to RCU, the subscriber lists are switched from list_head to hlist so that removal can use hlist_del_init_rcu(): it keeps the ->next pointer intact for concurrent readers while clearing ->pprev, which lets the double-deletion guard (added in commit 13d5e5d4725c) keep detecting an already-removed entry via hlist_unhashed(). Dropping write_lock_irq() from the writers is safe: no writer runs in atomic/IRQ context, and the sole atomic reader now uses RCU, which is IRQ-safe. Port lifetime handling (use_lock/closing drain in port_delete()) is orthogonal and unchanged. Note that the conversion to RCU has another merit: it automatically "fixes" the (rather false) lockdep warnings for the doubly read-locks of the same subscriber list, too.

2026-07-25ALSA: seq: Fix division by zero in initialize_timer()Norbert Szetei1-5/+4
A userspace-driven ALSA timer (SND_UTIMER) lets an unprivileged user set the backing snd_timer's hardware resolution to an arbitrary 64-bit value via SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_CREATE. snd_utimer_create() only rejects zero. When such a timer is bound to a sequencer queue, initialize_timer() computes the tick period as tmr->ticks = 1000000000 / (r * freq); where r is that user-controlled resolution and freq is the sequencer update rate in Hz, clamped to MIN_FREQUENCY..MAX_FREQUENCY (10..6250). A resolution of 2^63 makes the 64-bit product r * freq wrap to zero for any even freq, including DEFAULT_FREQUENCY (1000), so the division faults with a divide-by-zero. The division runs under tmr->lock with interrupts disabled, so the oops leaves the spinlock held and hangs the CPU. It is reachable by an unprivileged user with access to /dev/snd/timer and /dev/snd/seq.

2026-07-14ALSA: seq: close a re-opened queue timer in the destructorNorbert Szetei1-1/+12
queue_delete() closes the queue timer, then frees it. snd_seq_timer_close() clears q->timer->timeri. snd_use_lock_sync() then drains borrowers, and snd_seq_timer_delete() frees q->timer. A borrower can re-open the timer inside that window. A SET_QUEUE_CLIENT that took a queueptr() use_lock reference before the queue was unlinked runs snd_seq_timer_open() after the close. Open refuses re-open only while timeri is set, and the close just cleared it, so it re-opens timeri. snd_seq_timer_delete() does not close that instance. Its snd_seq_timer_stop() is a no-op, because running was cleared first. So it frees q->timer with the instance still live. The queue is freed next. The instance stays on the global timer with callback_data pointing at the freed queue. A non-owner START on the unlocked queue arms it. The next tick derefs the freed queue in snd_seq_timer_interrupt(). Reachable by an unprivileged user with access to /dev/snd/seq. No CAP and no queue ownership required. Close any lingering instance in the destructor. There, ->timeri can no longer change: the queue is unlinked and all use_lock borrowers have drained, so no snd_seq_queue_use() can re-open it. Close it before clearing q->timer. snd_timer_close() waits for any in-flight snd_seq_timer_interrupt() to finish, and that callback still reads q->timer (via snd_seq_check_queue()), so q->timer must stay valid until it drains.

2026-06-24ALSA: seq: Fix uninitialised heap leak in snd_seq_event_dup()HyeongJun An1-1/+1
snd_seq_event_dup() copies an incoming event into a pool cell and, in the UMP-enabled build, clears the trailing cell->ump.raw.extra word that the memcpy() did not cover. The guard deciding whether to clear it compares the copied size against sizeof(cell->event): memcpy(&cell->ump, event, size); if (size < sizeof(cell->event)) cell->ump.raw.extra = 0; For a legacy (non-UMP) event, size == sizeof(struct snd_seq_event) == sizeof(cell->event), so the condition is false and the extra word keeps stale data. The cell pool is allocated with kvmalloc() (not zeroed) and cells are reused via a free list, so that word holds uninitialised heap or leftover event data. When such a cell is delivered to a UMP client (client->midi_version > 0) that set SNDRV_SEQ_FILTER_NO_CONVERT -- so the legacy event reaches it unconverted -- snd_seq_read() reads it out as the larger struct snd_seq_ump_event and copies the stale word to user space, a 4-byte kernel heap infoleak to an unprivileged /dev/snd/seq client. Compare against sizeof(cell->ump) instead, so the trailing word is zeroed for every event shorter than the UMP cell.

2026-06-14ALSA: seq: avoid stale FIFO cells during resizeCen Zhang1-15/+37
snd_seq_fifo_resize() still needs to publish the replacement pool before it waits for FIFO users. A blocking snd_seq_read() holds f->use_lock while it sleeps, so concurrent senders must be able to queue to the new pool and wake that reader instead of failing against a closing old pool. However, snd_seq_fifo_event_in() duplicates an event before it takes f->lock, and snd_seq_read() can dequeue a cell and later call snd_seq_fifo_cell_putback() if copy_to_user() or snd_seq_expand_var_event() fails. If resize swaps f->pool and detaches oldhead in between, either path can relink an old-pool cell after the snapshot. That stale cell sits outside the drained oldhead list, keeps oldpool->counter elevated, and can leave snd_seq_pool_delete() waiting for the retired pool to drain. Keep the existing swap-before-wait ordering in snd_seq_fifo_resize(), but reject stale cells before any FIFO relink. Revalidate event-in cells under f->lock and retry them against the published replacement pool, and free stale putback cells instead of linking them back into the FIFO. The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path: resize path: relink path: 1. Allocate newpool. 1. Take f->use_lock. 2. Swap f->pool to newpool and 2. Duplicate or dequeue an old-pool detach oldhead. cell before oldpool closes. 3. Mark oldpool closing and 3. Reach a later relink point after wait for FIFO users. resize published newpool. 4.

2026-06-14ALSA: seq: oss: Serialize readq reset state with q->lockCen Zhang1-25/+52
snd_seq_oss_readq_clear() resets qlen, head, and tail without q->lock even though the normal reader and producer paths serialize the same ring state under that spinlock. A reset can therefore race snd_seq_oss_readq_free() or snd_seq_oss_readq_put_event() and leave stale records in the queue, drop freshly queued ones, or report the wrong readiness after wakeup. KCSAN reports a data race between snd_seq_oss_readq_clear() and snd_seq_oss_readq_free(). Take q->lock while clearing the ring and resetting input_time. Factor the enqueue logic into a caller-locked helper so snd_seq_oss_readq_put_timestamp() updates its suppression state under the same lock instead of racing the reset path.

2026-06-12ALSA: seq: Fix kernel heap address leak in bounce_error_event()HanQuan1-5/+27
The comment above bounce_error_event() documents that user clients should receive SNDRV_SEQ_EVENT_BOUNCE with the original event embedded as variable-length data, while kernel clients should receive SNDRV_SEQ_EVENT_KERNEL_ERROR with a quoted kernel pointer. However, the implementation unconditionally uses SNDRV_SEQ_EVENT_KERNEL_ERROR with data.quote.event set to the raw struct snd_seq_event pointer for all clients. When a bounce error event is delivered to a USER_CLIENT via snd_seq_read(), the kernel heap address in data.quote.event is exposed to userspace through copy_to_user() in the fixed-length branch. This is a distinct leak path from the one addressed by commit 705dd6dcbc0e ("ALSA: seq: Clear variable event pointer on read"), which sanitizes data.ext.ptr in the variable-length branch of snd_seq_read(). The bounce_error_event() leak uses fixed-length events that take the else branch where no sanitization occurs. Differentiate the bounce event by client type. For USER_CLIENT, send SNDRV_SEQ_EVENT_BOUNCE with SNDRV_SEQ_EVENT_LENGTH_VARIABLE and data.ext pointing to the original event. The variable-length path in snd_seq_event_dup() copies the event data into chained cells, and snd_seq_expand_var_event() copies only the content -- never the pointer -- to userspace. For KERNEL_CLIENT, keep the existing SNDRV_SEQ_EVENT_KERNEL_ERROR behavior with the quoted pointer.

2026-06-10ALSA: timer: Manage timer object with krefTakashi Iwai1-3/+8
So far we've tried to address UAFs in ALSA timer code by applying the locks at various places, but the fundamental problem is that the timer object may be released while the belonging timer instance objects are still present and accessing to it. This patch is a more proper fix to address that issue, namely, by refcounting and keeping the timer object. The basic implementation is to use kref for the refcount of the timer object, and take/release the reference at assigning/releasing the instance, as well as at referring from ioctls or ALSA sequencer code. The reference from ioctl or ALSA sequencer is abstracted with snd_timeri_timer auto-cleanup. Note that this change assumes that the code already took the fix commit da3039e91d1f ("ALSA: timer: Forcibly close timer instances at closing"); otherwise the refcount may be unbalanced when the timer is freed while slave instances are still present.

2026-06-07ALSA: seq: Clear variable event pointer on readKyle Zeng1-0/+1
snd_seq_read() copies a queued variable-length event header to userspace before expanding the payload. Queued variable-length events use SNDRV_SEQ_EXT_CHAINED internally, and data.ext.ptr points at the first extension cell. The read side strips SNDRV_SEQ_EXT_* bits from data.ext.len before the copy, but it leaves data.ext.ptr untouched. A userspace sequencer client can therefore write a direct variable event to itself and read back the extension-cell kernel address from the returned header. Clear the temporary header pointer before copy_to_user(). The original queued event remains unchanged and is still passed to snd_seq_expand_var_event(), so payload expansion keeps using the internal chain.

For SNDRV_SEQ_EXT_USRPTR events, expand_var_event() copies exactly the size argument from userspace. On the final chunk, when the remaining event data is shorter than the caller's buffer, this can read past the declared event data and can spuriously fail with -EFAULT if the extra bytes cross an unmapped page. Pass the clamped length instead. The chained and kernel-backed paths already reclamp in dump_var_event(), but the user-pointer path handles the size directly.

The dummy sequencer port forwards events by copying an incoming struct snd_seq_event into a stack temporary, rewriting source and destination, and dispatching the temporary to subscribers. That legacy event storage is smaller than struct snd_seq_ump_event. When a UMP event reaches the dummy client, the copy leaves the UMP flag set but only provides legacy-sized stack storage. The subscriber delivery path then uses snd_seq_event_packet_size() and copies a UMP-sized packet from that stack object, reading past the end of the temporary. Use the existing union __snd_seq_event storage and copy the packet size reported for the incoming event before rewriting the common routing fields. This preserves the full UMP packet for UMP events while keeping legacy event handling unchanged.

snd_seq_oss_read() checks whether the next queued OSS sequencer event fits in the remaining userspace buffer before removing it from the read queue. The check is inverted. It currently stops when the event is smaller than the remaining buffer, so a normal 4-byte event is not copied for an 8-byte read buffer. Conversely, an 8-byte event can be copied for a smaller read count. Break only when the remaining userspace buffer is smaller than the next event, and report -EINVAL if no complete event has been copied. This prevents an undersized read from looking like end-of-file while leaving the event queued for a later read with a large enough buffer.

Commit 2ee646353cd5 ("ALSA: seq: Register kernel port with full information") split sequencer port creation from list insertion so a port can be filled before it becomes visible. However, snd_seq_ioctl_create_port() still copies port->addr back to the ioctl argument before snd_seq_insert_port() assigns the final port number. A successful SNDRV_SEQ_IOCTL_CREATE_PORT without SNDRV_SEQ_PORT_FLG_GIVEN_PORT can therefore report port -1 to userspace. Move the ioctl address copy after successful insertion, and keep the default "port-%d" name assignment from overwriting a caller-provided port name.

2026-05-27ALSA: seq: midi: Serialize output teardown with event_inputZhang Cen1-14/+41
event_process_midi() borrows msynth->output_rfile.output and then passes the substream to dump_midi() and snd_rawmidi_kernel_write() without synchronizing with the output open/close transition. midisynth_use() also publishes output_rfile before snd_rawmidi_output_params() has finished. The last midisynth_unuse() can therefore release the same rawmidi file and free substream->runtime before snd_rawmidi_kernel_write1() takes its runtime buffer reference. That leaves the event_input path using a stale substream or runtime and can end in a NULL-deref or use-after-free. Fix this with two pieces of synchronization. Keep a short IRQ-safe spinlock only for publishing or clearing output_rfile and for pairing the output snapshot with an snd_use_lock_t reference. Once event_process_midi() has taken that in-flight reference, it drops the spinlock before calling snd_seq_dump_var_event(), dump_midi(), or snd_rawmidi_kernel_write(). midisynth_unuse() now detaches the visible rawmidi file under the same spinlock, waits for the in-flight writers to drain, and only then drains and releases the saved file. midisynth_use() likewise opens into a local snd_rawmidi_file and publishes it only after snd_rawmidi_output_params() succeeds. The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path: event_input path: last unuse path: 1. event_process_midi() snapshots 1. midisynth_unuse() starts output_rfile.output. tearing down output_rfile. 2. dump_midi() reaches 2. snd_rawmidi_kernel_release() snd_rawmidi_kernel_write() closes the output file. before runtime is pinned. 3. close_substream() frees 3.

2026-05-27ALSA: seq: oss: Fix UAF at handling events with embedded SysEx dataTakashi Iwai6-7/+20
The OSS sequencer processes the input MIDI bytes into a sequencer event to be dispatched later (in snd_seq_oss_midi_putc() called from snd_seq_oss_process_event()). When it's a SysEx data, the event record contains data.ext.ptr pointer to the original SysEx bytes, and the referred data is copied into the pool afterwards at dispatching. The problem is that, if the sequencer port gets closed concurrently before the dispatch, the OSS sequencer core also releases the resources (in snd_seq_oss_midi_check_exit_port()), while the pending event may hold a stale pointer, eventually leading to a UAF at a later dispatch. Fortunately, there is already a refcounting mechanism (snd_use_lock_t) for the OSS MIDI device access, and for addressing the issue above, we just need to extend the refcount until the event gets dispatched. This patch extends snd_seq_oss_process_event() to give back the refcount object, which is in turn released after calling the sequencer dispatcher with the given event in the caller side.

The sequencer priority queue insertion path uses a hardcoded traversal limit of 10000 entries. The value is intended to catch a corrupted list, but it also becomes a real limit for valid queues. The event pool limit is per client, while a sequencer queue can be shared by multiple clients. A queue can therefore legitimately contain more than 10000 events. In that case, inserting an event that has to be placed past the arbitrary limit fails with -EINVAL. Use the queue's own cell count as the traversal bound instead.

seq_ump_process_event() borrows client->out_rfile.output without synchronizing with the first-open and last-close transition in seq_ump_client_open() and seq_ump_client_close(). The last output unuse can therefore drop opened[STR_OUT] to zero and release the rawmidi file while an in-flight event_input callback is still inside snd_rawmidi_kernel_write(). That leaves the rawmidi substream runtime exposed to teardown before the write path has taken its own buffer reference. Add a per-client rwlock for the event_input-visible output file. Publish a newly opened output file under the write side, and hold the read side from the output lookup through snd_rawmidi_kernel_write(). The last output close copies and clears the visible output file under the write side, then drops the lock and releases the saved rawmidi file. Use IRQ-safe rwlock guards because event_input can also be reached from atomic sequencer delivery. The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path: path A label: event_input path path B label: last unuse path 1. seq_ump_process_event() reads 1. seq_ump_client_close() client->out_rfile.output. drops opened[STR_OUT] to zero. 2. snd_rawmidi_kernel_write1() 2. snd_rawmidi_kernel_release() has not yet pinned runtime. closes the output file. 3.

This means that user-space may sneak the wrong information before the actual data is filled, which isn't ideal. Although the user-space should try to query the port info after the port registration notification is sent out, it'd be still better to have a port available with the full info from the beginning.

2026-05-06ALSA: seq: Fix UMP group 16 filteringCássio Gabriel3-3/+6
The sequencer UAPI defines group_filter as an unsigned int bitmap. Bit 0 filters groupless messages and bits 1-16 filter UMP groups 1-16. The internal snd_seq_client storage is only unsigned short, so bit 16 is truncated when userspace sets the filter. The same truncation affects the automatic UMP client filter used to avoid delivery to inactive groups, so events for group 16 cannot be filtered. Store the internal bitmap as unsigned int and keep both userspace-provided and automatically generated values limited to the defined UAPI bits.

2026-03-27ALSA: seq_oss: return full count for successful SEQ_FULLSIZE writesCássio Gabriel1-3/+3
snd_seq_oss_write() currently returns the raw load_patch() callback result for SEQ_FULLSIZE events. That callback is documented as returning 0 on success and -errno on failure, but snd_seq_oss_write() is the file write path and should report the number of user bytes consumed on success. Some in-tree backends also return backend-specific positive values, which can still be shorter than the original write size. Return the full byte count for successful SEQ_FULLSIZE writes. Preserve negative errors and convert any nonnegative completion to the original count.

2026-02-21Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL argumentsLinus Torvalds1-2/+1
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds19-34/+34
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' | xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/' to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL argument to just drop that argument. Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2026-02-21treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar typesKees Cook20-38/+38
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org>
2025-12-17ALSA: seq: Relax __free() variable declarationsTakashi Iwai7-122/+126
We used to have a variable declaration with __free() initialized with NULL. This was to keep the old coding style rule, but recently it's relaxed and rather recommends to follow the new rule to declare in place of use for __free() -- which avoids potential deadlocks or UAFs with nested cleanups. Although the current code has no bug, per se, let's follow the new standard and move the declaration to the place of assignment (or directly assign the allocated result) instead of NULL initializations. Note that there is a remaining __free() with NULL initialization; it's because of the non-trivial code conditionally assigning the data.

The snd_seq bus got a dedicated probe function. Make use of that. This fixes a runtime warning about the driver needing to be converted to the bus probe method. Note that the remove callback returns void now. The actual return value was ignored before (see device_remove() in drivers/base/dd.c), so there is no problem introduced by converting `return -EINVAL` to `return`.
