In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mwifiex: bring down link before deleting interface We can deadlock when rmmod'ing the driver or going through firmware reset, because the cfg80211_unregister_wdev() has to bring down the link for us, ... which then grab the same wiphy lock. nl80211_del_interface() already handles a very similar case, with a nice description: /*
- We hold RTNL, so this is safe, without RTNL opencount cannot
- reach 0, and thus the rdev cannot be deleted.
- We need to do it for the dev_close(), since that will call
- the netdev notifiers, and we need to acquire the mutex there
- but don't know if we get there from here or from some other
- place (e.g. "ip link set ... down"). */ mutex_unlock(&rdev->wiphy.mtx); ... Do similarly for mwifiex teardown, by ensuring we bring the link down first.
