USB: dummy-hcd: Fix locking/synchronization error
Syzbot testing was able to provoke an addressing exception and crash
in the usb_gadget_udc_reset() routine in
drivers/usb/gadgets/udc/core.c, resulting from the fact that the
routine was called with a second ("driver") argument of NULL. The bad
caller was set_link_state() in dummy_hcd.c, and the problem arose
because of a race between a USB reset and driver unbind.
These sorts of races were not supposed to be possible; commit
7dbd8f4cabd9 ("USB: dummy-hcd: Fix erroneous synchronization change"),
along with a few followup commits, was written specifically to prevent
them. As it turns out, there are (at least) two errors remaining in
the code. Another patch will address the second error; this one is
concerned with the first.
The error responsible for the syzbot crash occurred because the
stop_activity() routine will sometimes drop and then re-acquire the
dum->lock spinlock. A call to stop_activity() occurs in
set_link_state() when handling an emulated USB reset, after the test
of dum->ints_enabled and before the increment of dum->callback_usage.
This allowed another thread (doing a driver unbind) to sneak in and
grab the spinlock, and then clear dum->ints_enabled and dum->driver.
Normally this other thread would have to wait for dum->callback_usage
to go down to 0 before it would clear dum->driver, but in this case it
didn't have to wait since dum->callback_usage had not yet been
incremented.
The fix is to increment dum->callback_usage _before_ calling
stop_activity() instead of after. Then the thread doing the unbind
will not clear dum->driver until after the call to
usb_gadget_udc_reset() safely returns and dum->callback_usage has been
decremented again.Show less |

sched_ext: Fix SCX_KICK_WAIT deadlock by deferring wait to balance callback
SCX_KICK_WAIT busy-waits in kick_cpus_irq_workfn() using
smp_cond_load_acquire() until the target CPU's kick_sync advances. Because
the irq_work runs in hardirq context, the waiting CPU cannot reschedule and
its own kick_sync never advances. If multiple CPUs form a wait cycle, all
CPUs deadlock.
Replace the busy-wait in kick_cpus_irq_workfn() with resched_curr() to
force the CPU through do_pick_task_scx(), which queues a balance callback
to perform the wait. The balance callback drops the rq lock and enables
IRQs following the sched_core_balance() pattern, so the CPU can process
IPIs while waiting. The local CPU's kick_sync is advanced on entry to
do_pick_task_scx() and continuously during the wait, ensuring any CPU that
starts waiting for us sees the advancement and cannot form cyclic
dependencies.Show less |

USB: dummy-hcd: Fix interrupt synchronization error
This fixes an error in synchronization in the dummy-hcd driver. The
error has a somewhat involved history. The synchronization mechanism
was introduced by commit 7dbd8f4cabd9 ("USB: dummy-hcd: Fix erroneous
synchronization change"), which added an emulated "interrupts enabled"
flag together with code emulating synchronize_irq() (it waits until
all current handler callbacks have returned).
But the emulated interrupt-disable occurred too late, after the driver
containing the handler callback routines had been told that it was
unbound and no more callbacks would occur. Commit 4a5d797a9f9c ("usb:
gadget: dummy_hcd: fix gpf in gadget_setup") tried to fix this by
moving the synchronize_irq() emulation code from dummy_stop() to
dummy_pullup(), which runs before the unbind callback.
There still were races, though, because the emulated interrupt-disable
still occurred too late. It couldn't be moved to dummy_pullup(),
because that routine can be called for reasons other than an impending
unbind. Therefore commits 7dc0c55e9f30 ("USB: UDC core: Add
udc_async_callbacks gadget op") and 04145a03db9d ("USB: UDC: Implement
udc_async_callbacks in dummy-hcd") added an API allowing the UDC core
to tell dummy-hcd exactly when emulated interrupts and their callbacks
should be disabled.
That brings us to the current state of things, which is still wrong
because the emulated synchronize_irq() occurs before the emulated
interrupt-disable! That's no good, beause it means that more emulated
interrupts can occur after the synchronize_irq() emulation has run,
leading to the possibility that a callback handler may be running when
the gadget driver is unbound.
To fix this, we have to move the synchronize_irq() emulation code yet
again, to the dummy_udc_async_callbacks() routine, which takes care of
enabling and disabling emulated interrupt requests. The
synchronization will now run immediately after emulated interrupts are
disabled, which is where it belongs.Show less |

sched/fair: Fix zero_vruntime tracking fix
John reported that stress-ng-yield could make his machine unhappy and
managed to bisect it to commit b3d99f43c72b ("sched/fair: Fix
zero_vruntime tracking").
The combination of yield and that commit was specific enough to
hypothesize the following scenario:
Suppose we have 2 runnable tasks, both doing yield. Then one will be
eligible and one will not be, because the average position must be in
between these two entities.
Therefore, the runnable task will be eligible, and be promoted a full
slice (all the tasks do is yield after all). This causes it to jump over
the other task and now the other task is eligible and current is no
longer. So we schedule.
Since we are runnable, there is no {de,en}queue. All we have is the
__{en,de}queue_entity() from {put_prev,set_next}_task(). But per the
fingered commit, those two no longer move zero_vruntime.
All that moves zero_vruntime are tick and full {de,en}queue.
This means, that if the two tasks playing leapfrog can reach the
critical speed to reach the overflow point inside one tick's worth of
time, we're up a creek.
Additionally, when multiple cgroups are involved, there is no guarantee
the tick will in fact hit every cgroup in a timely manner. Statistically
speaking it will, but that same statistics does not rule out the
possibility of one cgroup not getting a tick for a significant amount of
time -- however unlikely.
Therefore, just like with the yield() case, force an update at the end
of every slice. This ensures the update is never more than a single
slice behind and the whole thing is within 2 lag bounds as per the
comment on entity_key().Show less |

spi: spidev: fix lock inversion between spi_lock and buf_lock
The spidev driver previously used two mutexes, spi_lock and buf_lock,
but acquired them in different orders depending on the code path:
write()/read(): buf_lock -> spi_lock
ioctl(): spi_lock -> buf_lock
This AB-BA locking pattern triggers lockdep warnings and can
cause real deadlocks:
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
spidev_ioctl() -> mutex_lock(&spidev->buf_lock)
spidev_sync_write() -> mutex_lock(&spidev->spi_lock)
*** DEADLOCK ***
The issue is reproducible with a simple userspace program that
performs write() and SPI_IOC_WR_MAX_SPEED_HZ ioctl() calls from
separate threads on the same spidev file descriptor.
Fix this by simplifying the locking model and removing the lock
inversion entirely. spidev_sync() no longer performs any locking,
and all callers serialize access using spi_lock.
buf_lock is removed since its functionality is fully covered by
spi_lock, eliminating the possibility of lock ordering issues.
This removes the lock inversion and prevents deadlocks without
changing userspace ABI or behaviour.Show less |

drm/amdgpu: fix sync handling in amdgpu_dma_buf_move_notify
Invalidating a dmabuf will impact other users of the shared BO.
In the scenario where process A moves the BO, it needs to inform
process B about the move and process B will need to update its
page table.
The commit fixes a synchronisation bug caused by the use of the
ticket: it made amdgpu_vm_handle_moved behave as if updating
the page table immediately was correct but in this case it's not.
An example is the following scenario, with 2 GPUs and glxgears
running on GPU0 and Xorg running on GPU1, on a system where P2P
PCI isn't supported:
glxgears:
export linear buffer from GPU0 and import using GPU1
submit frame rendering to GPU0
submit tiled->linear blit
Xorg:
copy of linear buffer
The sequence of jobs would be:
drm_sched_job_run # GPU0, frame rendering
drm_sched_job_queue # GPU0, blit
drm_sched_job_done # GPU0, frame rendering
drm_sched_job_run # GPU0, blit
move linear buffer for GPU1 access #
amdgpu_dma_buf_move_notify -> update pt # GPU0
It this point the blit job on GPU0 is still running and would
likely produce a page fault.Show less |

Clang with CONFIG_UBSAN_SHIFT=y noticed a condition where a signed type
(literal "1" is an "int") could end up being shifted beyond 32 bits,
so instrumentation was added (and due to the double is_tw286x() call
seen via inlining), Clang decides the second one must now be undefined
behavior and elides the rest of the function[1]. This is a known problem
with Clang (that is still being worked on), but we can avoid the entire
problem by actually checking the existing max chip ID, and now there is
no runtime instrumentation added at all since everything is known to be
within bounds.
Additionally use an unsigned value for the shift to remove the
instrumentation even without the explicit bounds checking.

If the first lookup succeeds but the second fails, dev becomes NULL. This
leads to a potential null-pointer dereference when dev_dbg() is called:
if (errata.piix4.bmisx)
dev_dbg(&dev->dev, ...);
To prevent this, use two temporary pointers and retrieve each device
independently, avoiding overwriting dev with a possible NULL value.

In ov5647_init_controls() we call v4l2_get_subdevdata, but it is
initialized by v4l2_i2c_subdev_init() in the probe, which currently
happens after init_controls(). This can result in a segfault if the
error condition is hit, and we try to access i2c_client, so fix the

soc/tegra: pmc: Fix unsafe generic_handle_irq() call
Currently, when resuming from system suspend on Tegra platforms,
the following warning is observed:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 14459 at kernel/irq/irqdesc.c:666
Call trace:
handle_irq_desc+0x20/0x58 (P)
tegra186_pmc_wake_syscore_resume+0xe4/0x15c
syscore_resume+0x3c/0xb8
suspend_devices_and_enter+0x510/0x540
pm_suspend+0x16c/0x1d8
The warning occurs because generic_handle_irq() is being called from
a non-interrupt context which is considered as unsafe.
Fix this warning by deferring generic_handle_irq() call to an IRQ work
which gets executed in hard IRQ context where generic_handle_irq()
can be called safely.
When PREEMPT_RT kernels are used, regular IRQ work (initialized with
init_irq_work) is deferred to run in per-CPU kthreads in preemptible
context rather than hard IRQ context. Hence, use the IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD
variant so that with PREEMPT_RT kernels, the IRQ work is processed in
hardirq context instead of being deferred to a thread which is required
for calling generic_handle_irq().
On non-PREEMPT_RT kernels, both init_irq_work() and IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD()
execute in IRQ context, so this change has no functional impact for
standard kernel configurations.

media: verisilicon: Avoid G2 bus error while decoding H.264 and HEVC
For the i.MX8MQ platform, there is a hardware limitation: the g1 VPU and
g2 VPU cannot decode simultaneously; otherwise, it will cause below bus
error and produce corrupted pictures, even potentially lead to system hang.
[ 110.527986] hantro-vpu 38310000.video-codec: frame decode timed out.
[ 110.583517] hantro-vpu 38310000.video-codec: bus error detected.
Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that g1 and g2 operate alternately.
This allows for successful multi-instance decoding of H.264 and HEVC.
To achieve this, g1 and g2 share the same v4l2_m2m_dev, and then the
v4l2_m2m_dev can handle the scheduling.Show less |

md raid: fix hang when stopping arrays with metadata through dm-raid
When using device-mapper's dm-raid target, stopping a RAID array can cause
the system to hang under specific conditions.
This occurs when:
- A dm-raid managed device tree is suspended from top to bottom
(the top-level RAID device is suspended first, followed by its
underlying metadata and data devices)
- The top-level RAID device is then removed
Removing the top-level device triggers a hang in the following sequence:
the dm-raid destructor calls md_stop(), which tries to flush the
write-intent bitmap by writing to the metadata sub-devices. However, these
devices are already suspended, making them unable to complete the write-intent
operations and causing an indefinite block.
Fix:
- Prevent bitmap flushing when md_stop() is called from dm-raid
destructor context
and avoid a quiescing/unquescing cycle which could also cause I/O
- Still allow write-intent bitmap flushing when called from dm-raid
suspend context
This ensures that RAID array teardown can complete successfully even when the
underlying devices are in a suspended state.
This second patch uses md_is_rdwr() to distinguish between suspend and
destructor paths as elaborated on above.Show less |
