From 09cd5d3479b930f5cde8ed4d66784e724ffcf08c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takashi Iwai Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2017 22:15:51 +0100 Subject: ALSA: seq: Fix link corruption by event error handling commit f3ac9f737603da80c2da3e84b89e74429836bb6d upstream. The sequencer FIFO management has a bug that may lead to a corruption (shortage) of the cell linked list. When a sequencer client faces an error at the event delivery, it tries to put back the dequeued cell. When the first queue was put back, this forgot the tail pointer tracking, and the link will be screwed up. Although there is no memory corruption, the sequencer client may stall forever at exit while flushing the pending FIFO cells in snd_seq_pool_done(), as spotted by syzkaller. This patch addresses the missing tail pointer tracking at snd_seq_fifo_cell_putback(). Also the patch makes sure to clear the cell->enxt pointer at snd_seq_fifo_event_in() for avoiding a similar mess-up of the FIFO linked list.
