[PATCH] percpu: fix data race in pcpu_alloc_noprof() and extend spinlock protection area
Posted by Jeongjun Park 2 months, 3 weeks ago
I got the following KCSAN report during syzbot testing:

CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 3374 Comm: syz-executor.3 Not tainted 6.11.0-rc6-syzkaller-00326-gd1f2d51b711a-dirty #0
Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 08/06/2024
==================================================================

The global variable pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages can be protected by pcpu_lock, 
but since pcpu_alloc_noprof reads outside the spinlock protection section,
a data race may occur and the branch of the conditional statement may change.
Therefore, the reading of pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages should be modified to be 
performed within the spinlock protection section.

However, the for_each_clear_bitrange_from loop requires and uses a spinlock, 
but it repeatedly locks and unlocks the spinlock unnecessarily. 

Therefore, I think it is appropriate to remove the repeated spin_lock and 
spin_unlock in for_each_clear_bitrange_from and perform the operation of 
reading pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages and then perform spin_unlock to postpone 
the point in time when the spin_unlock is performed.

We don't want to do this because pcpu_populate_chunk() calls
alloc_pages_node() which can block.

I sent out [1] which is a more appropriate fix. I'll merge it later
today.
