[edk2-devel] [PATCH] ArmPkg/GicV3Dxe: Don't signal EOI on arbitrary interrupts
Posted by Ard Biesheuvel 2 years, 7 months ago
Currently, at ExitBootServices() time, the GICv3 driver signals
End-Of-Interrupt (EOI) on all interrupt lines that are supported by the
interrupt controller. This appears to have been carried over from the
GICv2 version, but has been turned into something that violates the GIC
spec, and may trigger SError exceptions on some implementations.

Marc puts it as follows:

  The GIC interrupt state machine is pretty strict. An interrupt can
  only be deactivated (with or without prior priority drop) if it has
  been acknowledged first. In GIC speak, this means that only the
  following sequences are valid:

  With EOImode==0:
	  x = ICC_IAR{0,1}_EL1;
	  ICC_EOIR{0,1}_EL1 = x;

  With EOImode==1:
	  x = ICC_IAR{0,1}_EL1;
	  ICC_EOIR{0,1}_EL1 = x;
	  ICC_DIR_EL1 = x;

  Any write to ICC_EOIR{0,1}_EL1 that isn't the direct consequence of
  the same value being read from ICC_IAR{0,1}_EL1, and with the correct
  nesting, breaks the state machine and leads to unpredictable results
  that affects *all* interrupts in the system (most likely, the priority
  system is dead). See Figure 4-3 ("Interrupt handling state machine")
  in Arm IHI 0069F for a description of the acceptable transitions.

  Additionally, on implementations that have ICC_CTLR_EL1.SEIS==1, a
  SError may be generated to signal the error. See the various

  <quote>
	  IMPLEMENTATION_DEFINED "SError ....";
  </quote>

  that are all over the pseudocode contained in the same architecture
  spec. Needless to say, this is pretty final for any SW that would do
  silly things on such implementations (which do exist).

Given that in our implementation, every signalled interrupt is acked,
handled and EOId in sequence, there is no reason to EOI all interrupts
at ExitBootServices() time in the first place, so let's just drop this
code. This fixes an issue reported by Marc where an SError is triggered
by this code, bringing down the system.

Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
---
This is a clear bugfix, but given how late we are in the cycle, I will
leave it up to Liming to decide whether we can still take this for the
upcoming stable tag.

Yikes.
Pretty sure that wasn't the right thing to do on gicv2 either.

I can see hypothetical situations where this could break existing
(broken) firmware ... so I would prefer to leave it until after the
stable tag unless there is substantial benefit to including it here.
