Subject: [PATCH v2] usb: gadget: aspeed_udc: avoid past-the-end iterator in dequeue
Date: Tue, 19 May 2026 16:02:13 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260519080213.1932516-1-maoyixie.tju@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260518073403.1285339-1-maoyi.xie@ntu.edu.sg>

ast_udc_ep_dequeue() declares the loop cursor `req` outside the
list_for_each_entry(). After the loop it tests `&req->req != _req`
to decide whether the request was found. If the queue holds no
match, `req` is past-the-end. It then aliases
container_of(&ep->queue, struct ast_udc_request, queue) via offset
cancellation. Whether that synthetic address equals `_req` depends
on heap layout. The function can return 0 without dequeueing
anything.

Walk the list with a separate `iter`. Set `req` only when a
request matches. After the loop, `req` is NULL if nothing
matched.

v2: Switch the loop body to Alan Stern's shape: test inside
    the if, assign `req`, break. Same behaviour as v1.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/20260518073403.1285339-1-maoyi.xie@ntu.edu.sg/
