In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PM: hibernate: defer device probing when resuming from hibernation
syzbot is reporting hung task at misc_open() [1], for there is a race window of AB-BA deadlock which involves probe_count variable. Currently wait_for_device_probe() from snapshot_open() from misc_open() can sleep forever with misc_mtx held if probe_count cannot become 0.
When a device is probed by hub_event() work function, probe_count is incremented before the probe function starts, and probe_count is decremented after the probe function completed.
There are three cases that can prevent probe_count from dropping to 0.
(a) A device being probed stopped responding (i.e. broken/malicious hardware).
(b) A process emulating a USB device using /dev/raw-gadget interface stopped responding for some reason.
(c) New device probe requests keeps coming in before existing device probe requests complete.
