The extcon_get_extcon_dev() function returns error pointers on error
and NULL when it's a -EPROBE_DEFER defer situation.  There are eight
callers and only two of them handled this correctly.  In the other
callers an error pointer return would lead to a crash.

What prevents crashes is that errors can only happen in the case of
a bug in the caller or if CONFIG_EXTCON is disabled.  Six out of
eight callers use the Kconfig to either depend on or select
CONFIG_EXTCON.  Thus the real life impact of these bugs is tiny.

The two callers where the drivers can be built without CONFIG_EXTCON
are TYPEC_FUSB302 and CHARGER_MAX8997.

If we apply this patch, it might be a good idea to send it to -stable
so that backported code that relies on handling error pointers does
not break silently.

Why does the code not need to return -EPROBE_DEFER ? The description states
that NULL is returned in that situation. Doesn't that mean that defer situations
are no longer handled with this patch in place ?

Also, with this patch in place, the code will no longer work if extcon is disabled,
because extcon_get_extcon_dev() will return -ENODEV and the above code will bail out.
The behavior of the code wasn't optimal in that case (it would wait until timeout
in tcpm_get_current_limit() before returning), but at least it didn't fail.

Thanks,
Guenter

I'm not sure I understand what you are saying here.  In the original
code, extcon_get_extcon_dev() would return NULL and relied on the
callers to change NULL into a -EPROBE_DEFER.  If extcon_get_extcon_dev()
returned ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) (which is impossible as mentioned) the it
would lead to a crash.

In the new code, the extcon_get_extcon_dev() function returns
-EPROBE_DEFER directly so the caller code is much simpler.

Huh.  You are right.  Initialy I thought that tcpm_get_current_limit()
would crash.  This is one of the two drivers which I mentioned that can
be built without CONFIG_EXTCON.

I will modify the version of extcon_get_extcon_dev() where CONFIG_EXTCON
is disabled to return NULL.  That is the standard/correct way to write
these.  That will turn tcpm_get_current_limit() into a no-op.

A belt and suspenders approach might be to modify the Kconfig so this
driver selects CONFIG_EXTCON.

dan carpenter

Misunderstanding on my side. I didn't get that extcon_get_extcon_dev()
now returns -EPROBE_DEFER.

That would pull in unnecessary extra code, though, if the driver is supposed
to be able to work without it.
