[PATCH v4] riscv: hwprobe: Fix stale vDSO data for late-initialized keys at boot

by Jingwei Wang

The value for some hwprobe keys, like MISALIGNED_VECTOR_PERF, is determined by an asynchronous kthread. This kthread can finish after the hwprobe vDSO data is populated, creating a race condition where userspace can read stale values. A completion-based framework is introduced to synchronize the async probes with the vDSO population. The init_hwprobe_vdso_data() function is deferred to `late_initcall` and now blocks until all probes signal completion. Reported-by: Tsukasa OI <research_trasio(a)irq.a4lg.com> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/760d637b-b13b-4518-b6bf-883d55d44e7f@ir… Fixes: e7c9d66e313b ("RISC-V: Report vector unaligned access speed hwprobe") Cc: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer(a)dabbelt.com> Cc: Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti(a)rivosinc.com> Cc: stable(a)vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jingwei Wang <wangjingwei(a)iscas.ac.cn> --- Changes in v4: - Reworked the synchronization mechanism based on feedback from Palmer and Alexandre. - Instead of a post-hoc refresh, this version introduces a robust completion-based framework using an atomic counter to ensure async probes are finished before populating the vDSO. - Moved the vdso data initialization to a late_initcall to avoid impacting boot time. Changes in v3: - Retained existing blank line. Changes in v2: - Addressed feedback from Yixun's regarding #ifdef CONFIG_MMU usage. - Updated commit message to provide a high-level summary. - Added Fixes tag for commit e7c9d66e313b. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20250521052754.185231-1-wangjingwei@isc… arch/riscv/include/asm/hwprobe.h | 8 +++++++- arch/riscv/kernel/sys_hwprobe.c | 20 +++++++++++++++++++- arch/riscv/kernel/unaligned_access_speed.c | 9 +++++++-- 3 files changed, 33 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/riscv/include/asm/hwprobe.h b/arch/riscv/include/asm/hwprobe.h index 7fe0a379474ae2c6..87af186d92e75ddb 100644 --- a/arch/riscv/include/asm/hwprobe.h +++ b/arch/riscv/include/asm/hwprobe.h @@ -40,5 +40,11 @@ static inline bool riscv_hwprobe_pair_cmp(struct riscv_hwprobe *pair, return pair->value == other_pair->value; } - +#ifdef CONFIG_MMU +void riscv_hwprobe_register_async_probe(void); +void riscv_hwprobe_complete_async_probe(void); +#else +inline void riscv_hwprobe_register_async_probe(void) {} +inline void riscv_hwprobe_complete_async_probe(void) {} +#endif #endif diff --git a/arch/riscv/kernel/sys_hwprobe.c b/arch/riscv/kernel/sys_hwprobe.c index 0b170e18a2beba57..8c50dcec2b754c30 100644 --- a/arch/riscv/kernel/sys_hwprobe.c +++ b/arch/riscv/kernel/sys_hwprobe.c @@ -5,6 +5,8 @@ * more details. */ #include <linux/syscalls.h> +#include <linux/completion.h> +#include <linux/atomic.h> #include <asm/cacheflush.h> #include <asm/cpufeature.h> #include <asm/hwprobe.h> @@ -467,6 +469,20 @@ static int do_riscv_hwprobe(struct riscv_hwprobe __user *pairs, #ifdef CONFIG_MMU +static DECLARE_COMPLETION(boot_probes_done); +static atomic_t pending_boot_probes = ATOMIC_INIT(0); + +void riscv_hwprobe_register_async_probe(void) +{ + atomic_inc(&pending_boot_probes); +} + +void riscv_hwprobe_complete_async_probe(void) +{ + if (atomic_dec_and_test(&pending_boot_probes)) + complete(&boot_probes_done); +} + static int __init init_hwprobe_vdso_data(void) { struct vdso_arch_data *avd = vdso_k_arch_data; @@ -474,6 +490,8 @@ static int __init init_hwprobe_vdso_data(void) struct riscv_hwprobe pair; int key; + if (unlikely(atomic_read(&pending_boot_probes) > 0)) + wait_for_completion(&boot_probes_done); /* * Initialize vDSO data with the answers for the "all CPUs" case, to * save a syscall in the common case. @@ -504,7 +522,7 @@ static int __init init_hwprobe_vdso_data(void) return 0; } -arch_initcall_sync(init_hwprobe_vdso_data); +late_initcall(init_hwprobe_vdso_data); #endif /* CONFIG_MMU */ diff --git a/arch/riscv/kernel/unaligned_access_speed.c b/arch/riscv/kernel/unaligned_access_speed.c index ae2068425fbcd207..4b8ad2673b0f7470 100644 --- a/arch/riscv/kernel/unaligned_access_speed.c +++ b/arch/riscv/kernel/unaligned_access_speed.c @@ -379,6 +379,7 @@ static void check_vector_unaligned_access(struct work_struct *work __always_unus static int __init vec_check_unaligned_access_speed_all_cpus(void *unused __always_unused) { schedule_on_each_cpu(check_vector_unaligned_access); + riscv_hwprobe_complete_async_probe(); return 0; } @@ -473,8 +474,12 @@ static int __init check_unaligned_access_all_cpus(void) per_cpu(vector_misaligned_access, cpu) = unaligned_vector_speed_param; } else if (!check_vector_unaligned_access_emulated_all_cpus() && IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_RISCV_PROBE_VECTOR_UNALIGNED_ACCESS)) { - kthread_run(vec_check_unaligned_access_speed_all_cpus, - NULL, "vec_check_unaligned_access_speed_all_cpus"); + riscv_hwprobe_register_async_probe(); + if (IS_ERR(kthread_run(vec_check_unaligned_access_speed_all_cpus, + NULL, "vec_check_unaligned_access_speed_all_cpus"))) { + pr_warn("Failed to create vec_unalign_check kthread\n"); + riscv_hwprobe_complete_async_probe(); + } } /* -- 2.50.0

[PATCH net v2 1/3] virtio-net: ensure the received length does not exceed allocated size

The pending requests do never complete because the dm-multipath queue_if_no_path option is enabled and the only path in the dm-multipath configuration is being removed. Fix this deadlock by removing the queue freezing/unfreezing code from queue_ra_store(). Freezing the request queue from inside a block layer sysfs store callback function is essential when modifying parameters that affect how bios or requests are processed, e.g. parameters that affect bio_split_to_limit(). Freezing the request queue when modifying parameters that do not affect bio nor request processing is not necessary.

[PATCH] net: libwx: fix the incorrect display of the queue number

by Jiawen Wu

When setting "ethtool -L eth0 combined 1", the number of RX/TX queue is changed to be 1. RSS is disabled at this moment, and the indices of FDIR have not be changed in wx_set_rss_queues(). So the combined count still shows the previous value. This issue was introduced when supporting FDIR. Fix it for those devices that support FDIR.

[PATCH 5.15.y] ocfs2: fix deadlock in ocfs2_get_system_file_inode

by Pranav Tyagi

From: Mohammed Anees <pvmohammedanees2003(a)gmail.com> [ Upstream commit 7bf1823e010e8db2fb649c790bd1b449a75f52d8 ] syzbot has found a possible deadlock in ocfs2_get_system_file_inode [1]. The scenario is depicted here, CPU0 CPU1 lock(&ocfs2_file_ip_alloc_sem_key); lock(&osb->system_file_mutex); lock(&ocfs2_file_ip_alloc_sem_key); lock(&osb->system_file_mutex); The function calls which could lead to this are: CPU0 ocfs2_mknod - lock(&ocfs2_file_ip_alloc_sem_key); . . . ocfs2_get_system_file_inode - lock(&osb->system_file_mutex); CPU1 - ocfs2_fill_super - lock(&osb->system_file_mutex); . . . ocfs2_read_virt_blocks - lock(&ocfs2_file_ip_alloc_sem_key); This issue can be resolved by making the down_read -> down_read_try in the ocfs2_read_virt_blocks.
