[ Upstream commit 1dd1eff161bd55968d3d46bc36def62d71fb4785 ]
Currently, the condition "__this_cpu_read(ksoftirqd) == current" is used to invoke rcu_softirq_qs() in ksoftirqd tasks context for non-RT kernels.
This works correctly as long as the context is actually task context but this condition is wrong when:
- the current task is ksoftirqd - the task is interrupted in a RCU read side critical section - __do_softirq() is invoked on return from interrupt
Syzkaller triggered the following scenario:
-> finish_task_switch() -> put_task_struct_rcu_user() -> call_rcu(&task->rcu, delayed_put_task_struct) -> __kasan_record_aux_stack() -> pfn_valid() -> rcu_read_lock_sched() <interrupt> __irq_exit_rcu() -> __do_softirq)() -> if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT) && __this_cpu_read(ksoftirqd) == current) -> rcu_softirq_qs() -> RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN(lock_is_held(&rcu_sched_lock_map))
The rcu quiescent state is reported in the rcu-read critical section, so the lockdep warning is triggered.
Fix this by splitting out the inner working of __do_softirq() into a helper function which takes an argument to distinguish between ksoftirqd task context and interrupted context and invoke it from the relevant call sites with the proper context information and use that for the conditional invocation of rcu_softirq_qs().
