Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Complete cleanup after system-resume errors
A failed system resume can leave the card unusable until reboot.
usb_audio_resume() jumps to err_out when snd_usb_pcm_resume() or
snd_usb_mixer_resume() fails. The error path skips the out: block, which
restores D0 and decrements chip->num_suspended_intf.
The card stays in SNDRV_CTL_POWER_D3hot, so later control access blocks in
snd_power_ref_and_wait(). USB core logs an interface resume callback error.
It does not retry that callback, so a later callback cannot complete the
skipped cleanup.
usb_audio_suspend() increments num_suspended_intf before returning success.
A system-resume callback must consume the system-suspend count even if a
component resume fails. Otherwise, the stranded count skews later suspend
and resume cycles.
Do not apply this cleanup to runtime-resume errors. Runtime PM can retry
-EAGAIN or -EBUSY without another suspend callback. The count must continue
to describe that suspended interface. Other runtime-resume errors latch
runtime_error in the PM core and do not cause an immediate callback retry.
Both parts of the system-resume error path are longstanding. Commit
88a8516a2128a ("ALSA: usbaudio: implement USB autosuspend") introduced
err_out past the D0 restore. Commit 862b2509d157c ("ALSA: usb-audio: Fix
inconsistent card PM state after resume") later moved
num_suspended_intf-- into the out: block. The error path now skips both
operations.
No third-party code is needed to reach the error path.
snd_usb_mixer_resume() ends in snd_usb_mixer_activate(), which returns the
result of usb_submit_urb() for devices that have a mixer status URB. Its
mixer->private_resume hook can also fail through scarlett2_init_notify().
snd_usb_pcm_resume() issues a SET_CUR request to a UAC3 power domain. It
can return -EPIPE or -EIO when the device stalls the request.
Route a component error through out: only when system_suspend is nonzero.
Continue to return runtime-resume errors through err_out. Later component
resume stages remain skipped. The original error still reaches USB core.
A later transfer can fail if the device did not recover.
I reproduced the system-resume failure on an Audient iD14 MkI with an
out-of-tree diagnostic mixer resume hook. An injected -EIO on the unpatched
core left control readers in uninterruptible sleep in
snd_power_ref_and_wait() until a reboot. With this patch, the same failure
restored control access. A second system suspend and resume also succeeded
after I disabled fault injection.
