USB: cdc-acm: rework notification_buffer resizing
commit f4b9d8a582f738c24ebeabce5cc15f4b8159d74e upstream. Clang static analysis reports this error cdc-acm.c:409:3: warning: Use of memory after it is freed acm_process_notification(acm, (unsigned char *)dr); There are three problems, the first one is that dr is not reset The variable dr is set with if (acm->nb_index) dr = (struct usb_cdc_notification *)acm->notification_buffer; But if the notification_buffer is too small it is resized with if (acm->nb_size) { kfree(acm->notification_buffer); acm->nb_size = 0; } alloc_size = roundup_pow_of_two(expected_size); /* * kmalloc ensures a valid notification_buffer after a * use of kfree in case the previous allocation was too * small. Final freeing is done on disconnect. */ acm->notification_buffer = kmalloc(alloc_size, GFP_ATOMIC); dr should point to the new acm->notification_buffer. The second problem is any data in the notification_buffer is lost when the pointer is freed. In the normal case, the current data is accumulated in the notification_buffer here. memcpy(&acm->notification_buffer[acm->nb_index], urb->transfer_buffer, copy_size); When a resize happens, anything before notification_buffer[acm->nb_index] is garbage. The third problem is the acm->nb_index is not reset on a resizing buffer error. So switch resizing to using krealloc and reassign dr and reset nb_index.
