The syzkaller fuzzer reported a bug in the USB hub driver which turned out to be caused by a negative runtime-PM usage counter. This allowed a hub to be runtime suspended at a time when the driver did not expect it. The symptom is a WARNING issued because the hub's status URB is submitted while it is already active: URB 0000000031fb463e submitted while active WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2917 at drivers/usb/core/urb.c:363 The negative runtime-PM usage count was caused by an unfortunate design decision made when runtime PM was first implemented for USB. At that time, USB class drivers were allowed to unbind from their interfaces without balancing the usage counter (i.e., leaving it with a positive count). The core code would take care of setting the counter back to 0 before allowing another driver to bind to the interface. Later on when runtime PM was implemented for the entire kernel, the opposite decision was made: Drivers were required to balance their runtime-PM get and put calls. In order to maintain backward compatibility, however, the USB subsystem adapted to the new implementation by keeping an independent usage counter for each interface and using it to automatically adjust the normal usage counter back to 0 whenever a driver was unbound. This approach involves duplicating information, but what is worse, it doesn't work properly in cases where a USB class driver delays decrementing the usage counter until after the driver's disconnect() routine has returned and the counter has been adjusted back to 0. Doing so would cause the usage counter to become negative. There's even a warning about this in the USB power management documentation! As it happens, this is exactly what the hub driver does. The kick_hub_wq() routine increments the runtime-PM usage counter, and the corresponding decrement is carried out by hub_event() in the context of the hub_wq work-queue thread. This work routine may sometimes run after the driver has been unbound from its interface, and when it does it causes the usage counter to go negative. It is not possible for hub_disconnect() to wait for a pending hub_event() call to finish, because hub_disconnect() is called with the device lock held and hub_event() acquires that lock. The only feasible fix is to reverse the original design decision: remove the duplicate interface-specific usage counter and require USB drivers to balance their runtime PM gets and puts. As far as I know, all existing drivers currently do this.
