Commit Message

Matti Vaittinen Oct. 3, 2022, 8:11 a.m. UTC
The iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext() was changed by
commit 15097c7a1adc ("iio: buffer: wrap all buffer attributes into iio_dev_attr")
to silently expect that all attributes given in buffer_attrs array are
device-attributes. This expectation was not forced by the API - and some
drivers did register attributes created by IIO_CONST_ATTR().

The added attribute "wrapping" does not copy the pointer to stored
string constant and when the sysfs file is read the kernel will access
to invalid location.

Change the IIO_CONST_ATTRs from the driver to IIO_DEVICE_ATTR in order
to prevent the invalid memory access.

Fixes: 15097c7a1adc ("iio: buffer: wrap all buffer attributes into iio_dev_attr")

v2 => v3:
Split change to own patch for simpler fix backporting.

Applied to the fixes-togreg branch of iio.git and marked for stable.
