Pull kexec / irq fix from Ingo Molnar:
- Fix possible hang in machine_kexec_mask_interrupts(),
which incorrectly assumes that irq_set_irqchip_state()
will always be able to complete in a kexec crash path,
triggered on RK3399 embedded boards (Igor Velkov)

genirq/kexec: Do not take the bus lock of an interrupt chip on the crash path
|
|
machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() calls irq_set_irqchip_state() for every
started interrupt. That function takes the bus lock of the chip and
desc->lock, and syncs the chip when it drops them. On the crash path
interrupts are off and the other CPUs are stopped, so a chip whose bus
transfer is completed by an interrupt never returns from the sync.
On RK3399 boards with an RK808 PMIC the RTC alarm interrupt belongs to
the regmap-irq chip of the RK808, which sits on I2C. rk808_irq_chip sets
init_ack_masked, so regmap_irq_sync_unlock() writes the ack register on
every unlock, and the I2C controller needs its own interrupt to finish
the transfer. A panic with a crash kernel loaded prints
SMP: stopping secondary CPUs
and then nothing until the watchdog resets the board.
machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() takes neither lock for the other
operations on the descriptor. Move the search for the chip that
implements irq_set_irqchip_state() into __irq_set_irqchip_state(), which
takes no locks, and call it from machine_kexec_mask_interrupts().

irq_thread() registers irq_thread_dtor() as exit task_work using a
stack-allocated callback_head. On normal interrupt thread exit, this work
gets cancelled and never runs.
On x86, an abnormal interrupt thread exit (e.g. handler oops) discards the
stack, including the callback_head, while that callback_head is still
pending. By the time exit_task_work() runs, the stack memory formerly
backing callback_head is already clobbered.
irq_thread() <-- on_exit_work allocated
** IRQ handler faults **
oops_end()
rewind_stack_and_make_dead() <-- on_exit_work freed
make_task_dead()
do_exit(SIGSEGV)
...
exit_shm() <-- on_exit_work clobbered
...
exit_task_work() <-- stack use-after-free
exit_shm()+0x30 <-- wild jump to return addr
Thus, a benign threaded IRQ oops (e.g. a NULL pointer deref) is
turned into a wild jump. This is caught by kernel IBT:
** first fault **
Oops: general protection fault, kernel NULL pointer dereference 0x3c0: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI
...
** second fault **

Fix this by storing the callback_head in struct irqaction. The irqaction
is only freed once irq_thread_dtor() finishes.

When an interrupt thread exits abnormally via do_exit() (e.g. the interrupt
handler oopses) without returning from irq_thread(), a concurrent call to
free_irq() could free the irqaction before the irq_thread_dtor() exit task
work runs.
irq thread (oopsed) free_irq()
------------------- ----------
do_exit()
exit_mm()
complete_vfork_done() -------> kthread_stop() returns
exit_files() ... kfree(action)
exit_task_work()
irq_thread_dtor()
action->... <- use-after-free
Track the pending exit work with the IRQTF_EXIT_WORK thread flag, and have
__free_irq() wait for the bit to clear before kfree().
irq_thread_dtor() only runs on irq_thread abnormal exit. If that dtor also
faults, free_irq() will hang indefinitely, but double IRQ thread faults
require a reboot anyways.

This is another run of the Coccinelle script for converting kmalloc()
family of allocations to kmalloc_obj() via the existing rules in
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci
This catches both the set of kmalloc() uses added since the first
kmalloc_obj() conversions in v7.0 and adds a large group missed in the
first pass due to Coccinelle not interacting well with the cleanup.h
scoped_...() family of macros[1]. I worked around this with spatch's
"--macro-file" argument to a file with all the scoped_...() macros mapped
to Coccinelle's YACFE_ITERATOR[2] as that was the closest viable control
flow indicator I could find.
Build tested allmodconfig on x86, arm64, arm, loongarch, mips, powerpc,
riscv, and s390 with no new warnings.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"One of the 'small improvements all over the place' releases for us.
It's hard to draw any direct comparisons because summer vacations
disrupted our patch processing (and presumably - generation) quite a
bit.
Quick and dirty count suggests we (Paolo and I) merged a very similar
number of net (632) and net-next (648) patches. This is not telling
the full story either because 1/3 to 1/2 of the net-next patches also
*seem* like AI-driven low priority fixes, cleanups and clarifications.
We are completely overwhelmed, of course. The glimmer of hope is that
we secured sufficient LLM budget and access (thank you Meta!) to run
reviews with multiple frontier models on each patch. This eliminates
some hallucinations. That said, in terms of review, the LLMs can only
do so much.
The sad truth is that our APIs (especially for rare events like PCIe
errors, timeouts etc) have always been racy, and now LLMs don't let us
ignore that. I expect our direction for the next release will be to
tweak the reviews a little bit more, but start shifting focus to
letting the LLMs take care of the busy work - managing patchwork,
automating common process complaints, editing commit messages, and
maybe applying patches which already got "reviewed-by" tags from
people we trust...

Export irq_can_set_affinity() for loadable drivers that need a runtime
check for IRQ affinity capability.
In hierarchical IRQ setups where the effective irqchip path lacks
.irq_set_affinity(), drivers may need to switch to a fallback policy.
Without this export, module drivers cannot use the core helper and have
to open-code equivalent checks.

show_interrupts() evaluates a boatload of conditions to establish whether
it should expose an interrupt in /proc/interrupts or not.
That can be simplified by caching the condition in an internal status flag,
which is updated when one of the relevant inputs changes.
The irq_desc::kstat_irq check is dropped because visible interrupt
descriptors always have a valid pointer.
As a result the number of instructions and branches for reading
/proc/interrupts is reduced significantly.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Pull MSI updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the [PCI] MSI subsystem:
- Add interrupt redirection infrastructure
Some PCI controllers use a single demultiplexing interrupt for the
MSI interrupts of subordinate devices.
This prevents setting the interrupt affinity of device interrupts,
which causes device interrupts to be delivered to a single CPU.
That obviously is counterproductive for multi-queue devices and
interrupt balancing.
To work around this limitation the new infrastructure installs a
dummy irq_set_affinity() callback which captures the affinity mask
and picks a redirection target CPU out of the mask.
When the PCI controller demultiplexes the interrupts it invokes a
new handling function in the core, which either runs the interrupt
handler in the context of the target CPU or delegates it to
irq_work on the target CPU.
- Utilize the interrupt redirection mechanism in the PCI DWC host
controller driver.
This allows affinity control for the subordinate device MSI
interrupts instead of being randomly executed on the CPU which runs
the demultiplex handler.
- Replace the binary 64-bit MSI flag with a DMA mask
Some PCI devices have PCI_MSI_FLAGS_64BIT in the MSI capability,
but implement less than 64 address bits. This breaks on platforms
where such a device is assigned an MSI address higher than what's
supported.
With the binary 64-bit flag there is no other choice than disabling
64-bit MSI support which leaves the device disfunctional.
By using a DMA mask the address limit of a device can be described
correctly which provides support for the above scenario.
- Make use of the DMA mask based address limit in the hda/intel and
radeon drivers to enable them on affected platforms
- The usual small cleanups and improvements"

During CPU offlining the interrupts affined to that CPU are moved to other
online CPUs, which might break the original affinity mask if the outgoing
CPU was the last online CPU in that mask. This change is not propagated to
irq_desc::affinity_notify(), which leaves users of the affinity notifier
mechanism with stale information.
Avoid this by scheduling affinity change notification work for interrupts
that were affined to the CPU being offlined, if the new target CPU is not
part of the original affinity mask.
Since irq_set_affinity_locked() uses the same logic to schedule affinity
change notification work, split out this logic into a dedicated function
and use that at both places.

IRQF_ONESHOT disables the interrupt source until after the threaded
handler completed its work. This is needed to allow the threaded handler
to run - otherwise the CPU will get back to the interrupt handler
because the interrupt source remains active and the threaded handler
will not able to do its work.
Specifying IRQF_ONESHOT without a threaded handler does not make sense.
It could be a leftover if the handler _was_ threaded and changed back to
primary and the flag was not removed. This can be problematic in the
`threadirqs' case because the handler is exempt from forced-threading.
This in turn can become a problem on a PREEMPT_RT system if the handler
attempts to acquire sleeping locks.
Warn about missing threaded handlers with the IRQF_ONESHOT flag.

Add infrastructure to redirect interrupt handler execution to a
different CPU when the current CPU is not part of the interrupt's CPU
affinity mask.
This is primarily aimed at (de)multiplexed interrupts, where the child
interrupt handler runs in the context of the parent interrupt handler,
and therefore CPU affinity control for the child interrupt is typically
not available.
With the new infrastructure, the child interrupt is allowed to freely
change its affinity setting, independently of the parent. If the
interrupt handler happens to be triggered on an "incompatible" CPU (a
CPU that's not part of the child interrupt's affinity mask), the handler
is redirected and runs in IRQ work context on a "compatible" CPU.
No functional change is being made to any existing irqchip driver, and
irqchip drivers must be explicitly modified to use the newly added
infrastructure to support interrupt redirection.

Pull irq core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the interrupt core and treewide cleanups:
- Rework of the Per Processor Interrupt (PPI) management on ARM[64]
PPI support was built under the assumption that the systems are
homogenous so that the same CPU local device types are connected to
them. That's unfortunately wishful thinking and created horrible
workarounds.
This rework provides affinity management for PPIs so that they can
be individually configured in the firmware tables and mops up the
related drivers all over the place.
- Prevent CPUSET/isolation changes to arbitrarily affine interrupt
threads to random CPUs, which ignores user or driver settings.
- Plug a harmless race in the interrupt affinity proc interface,
which allows to see a half updated mask
- Adjust the priority of secondary interrupt threads on RT, so that
the combination of primary and secondary thread emulates the
hardware interrupt plus thread scenario. Having them at the same
priority can cause starvation issues in some drivers"

Failing to allocate the affinity mask of an interrupt descriptor fails the
whole descriptor initialization. It is then guaranteed that the cpumask is
always available whenever the related interrupt objects are alive, such as
the kthread handler.
Therefore remove the superfluous check since it is merely a historical
leftover. Get rid also of the comments above it that are obsolete and
useless.

When a cpuset isolated partition is created / updated or destroyed, the
interrupt threads are affined blindly to all the non-isolated CPUs. This
happens without taking into account the interrupt threads initial affinity
that becomes ignored.
For example in a system with 8 CPUs, if an interrupt and its kthread are
initially affine to CPU 5, creating an isolated partition with only CPU 2
inside will eventually end up affining the interrupt kthread to all CPUs
but CPU 2 (that is CPUs 0,1,3-7), losing the kthread preference for CPU 5.
Besides the blind re-affining, this doesn't take care of the actual low
level interrupt which isn't migrated. As of today the only way to isolate
non managed interrupts, along with their kthreads, is to overwrite their
affinity separately, for example through /proc/irq/
To avoid doing that manually, future development should focus on updating
the interrupt's affinity whenever cpuset isolated partitions are updated.
In the meantime, cpuset shouldn't fiddle with interrupt threads directly.
To prevent from that, set the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag to them.
This is done through kthread_bind_mask() by affining them initially to all
possible CPUs as at that point the interrupt is not started up which means
the affinity of the hard interrupt is not known. The thread will adjust
that once it reaches the handler, which is guaranteed to happen after the
initial affinity of the hard interrupt is established.

Crystal reports that the PCIe Advanced Error Reporting driver gets stuck
in an infinite loop on PREEMPT_RT:
Both the primary interrupt handler aer_irq() as well as the secondary
handler aer_isr() are forced into threads with identical priority.
Crystal writes that on the ARM system in question, the primary handler
has to clear an error in the Root Error Status register...
"before the next error happens, or else the hardware will set the
Multiple ERR_COR Received bit. If that bit is set, then aer_isr()
can't rely on the Error Source Identification register, so it scans
through all devices looking for errors -- and for some reason, on
this system, accessing the AER registers (or any Config Space above
0x400, even though there are capabilities located there) generates
an Unsupported Request Error (but returns valid data). Since this
happens more than once, without aer_irq() preempting, it causes
another multi error and we get stuck in a loop."
The issue does not show on non-PREEMPT_RT because the primary handler
runs in hardirq context and thus can preempt the threaded secondary
handler, clear the Root Error Status register and prevent the secondary
handler from getting stuck.
Emulate the same behavior on PREEMPT_RT by assigning a lower default
priority to the secondary handler if the primary handler is forced into
a thread.

Interrupt sharing for percpu-devid interrupts is forbidden, and for good
reasons. These are interrupts generated *from* a CPU and handled by itself
(timer, for example). Nobody in their right mind would put two devices on
the same pin (and if they have, they get to keep the pieces...).
But this also prevents more benign cases, where devices are connected
to groups of CPUs, and for which the affinities are not overlapping.
Effectively, the only thing they share is the interrupt number, and
nothing else.
Tweak the definition of IRQF_SHARED applied to percpu_devid interrupts to
allow this particular use case. This results in extra validation at the
point of the interrupt being setup and freed, as well as a tiny bit of
extra complexity for interrupts at handling time (to pick the correct
irqaction).

Move the code creating a per-cpu irqaction into its own helper, so that
future changes to this code can be kept localised.
At the same time, fix the documentation which appears to say the wrong
thing when it comes to interrupts being automatically enabled
(percpu_devid interrupts never are).

Commit 8589e325ba4f ("genirq/manage: Rework irq_set_irq_wake()") updated
the irq_set_irq_wake() to use the new guards for locking the interrupt
descriptor.
However, in doing so it inadvertently changed irq_set_irq_wake() such that
the 'chip_bus_lock' is no longer acquired. This has caused system suspend
tests to fail on some Tegra platforms.
Fix this by correcting the guard used in irq_set_irq_wake() to ensure the
'chip_bus_lock' is held.

This code pattern trips clang up:
if (fail)
goto undo;

do_stuff();

as it somehow extends the scope of the guard beyond the return statement.
