[PATCH v5.15 RESEND 0/2] x86/irq: Plug vector setup race
Posted by Jinjie Ruan 1 month, 1 week ago
There is a vector setup race, which overwrites the interrupt
descriptor in the per CPU vector array resulting in a disfunctional device.

CPU0				CPU1
				interrupt is raised in APIC IRR
				but not handled
  free_irq()
    per_cpu(vector_irq, CPU1)[vector] = VECTOR_SHUTDOWN;

  request_irq()			common_interrupt()
  				  d = this_cpu_read(vector_irq[vector]);

    per_cpu(vector_irq, CPU1)[vector] = desc;

    				  if (d == VECTOR_SHUTDOWN)
				    this_cpu_write(vector_irq[vector], VECTOR_UNUSED);

free_irq() cannot observe the pending vector in the CPU1 APIC as there is
no way to query the remote CPUs APIC IRR.

This requires that request_irq() uses the same vector/CPU as the one which
was freed, but this also can be triggered by a spurious interrupt.

Interestingly enough this problem managed to be hidden for more than a
decade.

Prevent this by reevaluating vector_irq under the vector lock, which is
held by the interrupt activation code when vector_irq is updated.

The first patch provides context for subsequent real bugfix patch.
