Subject: [PATCH v3] arm64/mm: avoid fixmap race condition when create pud mapping
Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2021 16:28:12 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211216082812.165387-1-jianyong.wu@arm.com> (raw)
The 'fixmap' is a global resource and is used recursively by
create pud mapping(), leading to a potential race condition in the
presence of a concurrent call to alloc_init_pud():
kernel_init thread virtio-mem workqueue thread
================== ===========================
alloc_init_pud(...) alloc_init_pud(...)
pudp = pud_set_fixmap_offset(...) pudp = pud_set_fixmap_offset(...)
READ_ONCE(*pudp)
pud_clear_fixmap(...)
READ_ONCE(*pudp) // CRASH!
As kernel may sleep during creating pud mapping, introduce a mutex lock to
serialise use of the fixmap entries by alloc_init_pud().
Signed-off-by: Jianyong Wu <jianyong.wu@arm.com>

Change log:
from v2 to v3:
change spin lock to mutex lock as kernel may sleep when create pud
map.
