[PATCH 2/2] media: venus: sync with threaded IRQ during inst destruction
Posted by Sergey Senozhatsky 1 month ago
When destroy inst we should make sure that we don't race
against threaded IRQ (or pending IRQ), otherwise we can
concurrently kfree() inst context and inst itself.

I think it probably should be something like this (both for dec and
enc).

Thanks a lot for looking into this. Wouldn't it be enough to just call
synchronize_irq() at this point, since the instance was removed from
the list already? I guess the question is if that's the only way the
interrupt handler can get hold of the instance.

Best,
Tomasz

Good question.

synchronize_irq() waits for IRQ-threads, so if inst is accessed only from
IRQ-thread then we are fine.  If, however, inst is also accessed from hard
IRQ, then synchronize_irq() won't work, I guess, because it doesn't wait
for "in flight hard IRQs".  disable_irq() OTOH "waits for completion", so
we cover in-flight hard IRQs too.

Looking at the code, synchronize_irq() internally also calls
synchronize_hardirq() and that in turn waits for the
IRQD_IRQ_INPROGESS flag to be cleared before returning [1]. The flag
is set by handle_irq_event() before most of the IRQ handling is run
and cleared at the end of the function [2], which makes me believe
that it would actually ensure all the hardirq and threaded IRQ
handlers would be waited for.

[1] https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.11.5/source/kernel/irq/manage.c#L38
[2] https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.11.5/source/kernel/irq/handle.c#L202

Although I guess it would be the best if someone confirmed that,
because with all the IRQ handling complexities of SMP, nothing can be
certain today. :P

Best,
Tomasz
