A PCI endpoint function driver can define function specific attributes under its function configfs directory using the add_cfs() endpoint driver operation. This is done by tying up the mkdir operation for the function configfs directory to a call to the add_cfs() operation. However, there are no checks preventing the user from repeatedly creating function specific attribute directories with different names, resulting in the same endpoint specific attributes group being added multiple times, which also result in an invalid reference counting for the attribute groups. E.g., using the pci-epf-ntb function driver as an example, the user creates the function as follows: $ modprobe pci-epf-ntb $ cd /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/functions/pci_epf_ntb $ mkdir func0 $ tree func0 func0/ |-- baseclass_code |-- cache_line_size |-- ... `-- vendorid $ mkdir func0/attrs $ tree func0 func0/ |-- attrs | |-- db_count | |-- mw1 | |-- mw2 | |-- mw3 | |-- mw4 | |-- num_mws | `-- spad_count |-- baseclass_code |-- cache_line_size |-- ... `-- vendorid At this point, the function can be started by linking the EP controller. However, if the user mistakenly creates again a directory: $ mkdir func0/attrs2 $ tree func0 func0/ |-- attrs | |-- db_count | |-- mw1 | |-- mw2 | |-- mw3 | |-- mw4 | |-- num_mws | `-- spad_count |-- attrs2 | |-- db_count | |-- mw1 | |-- mw2 | |-- mw3 | |-- mw4 | |-- num_mws | `-- spad_count |-- baseclass_code |-- cache_line_size |-- ... `-- vendorid The endpoint function specific attributes are duplicated and cause a crash when the endpoint function device is torn down: refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free. WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 834 at lib/refcount.c:25 refcount_warn_saturate+0xc8/0x144 CPU: 2 PID: 834 Comm: rmdir Not tainted 6.3.0-rc1 #1 Hardware name: Pine64 RockPro64 v2.1 (DT) pstate: 60000005 (nZCv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) ...

Fix this by modifying pci_epf_cfs_work() to execute the new function pci_ep_cfs_add_type_group() which itself calls pci_epf_type_add_cfs() to obtain the function specific attribute group and the group name (directory name) from the endpoint function driver. If the function driver defines an attribute group, pci_ep_cfs_add_type_group() then proceeds to register this group using configfs_register_group(), thus automatically exposing the function type specific configfs attributes to the user. E.g.: $ modprobe pci-epf-ntb $ cd /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/functions/pci_epf_ntb $ mkdir func0 $ tree func0 func0/ |-- baseclass_code |-- cache_line_size |-- ... |-- pci_epf_ntb.0 | |-- db_count | |-- mw1 | |-- mw2 | |-- mw3 | |-- mw4 | |-- num_mws | `-- spad_count |-- primary |-- ... `-- vendorid With this change, there is no need for the user to create or delete directories in the endpoint function attributes directory. The pci_epf_type_group_ops group operations are thus removed. Also update the documentation for the pci-epf-ntb and pci-epf-vntb function drivers to reflect this change, removing the explanations showing the need to manually create the sub-directory for the function specific attributes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
