[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 104/146] xen/events: don't bind non-percpu VIRQs with percpu chip

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Wed Jun 17 2015 - 18:26:52 EST


3.19.8-ckt2 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 77bb3dfdc0d554befad58fdefbc41be5bc3ed38a upstream.

A non-percpu VIRQ (e.g., VIRQ_CONSOLE) may be freed on a different
VCPU than it is bound to. This can result in a race between
handle_percpu_irq() and removing the action in __free_irq() because
handle_percpu_irq() does not take desc->lock. The interrupt handler
sees a NULL action and oopses.

Only use the percpu chip/handler for per-CPU VIRQs (like VIRQ_TIMER).

# cat /proc/interrupts | grep virq
40: 87246 0 xen-percpu-virq timer0
44: 0 0 xen-percpu-virq debug0
47: 0 20995 xen-percpu-virq timer1
51: 0 0 xen-percpu-virq debug1
69: 0 0 xen-dyn-virq xen-pcpu
74: 0 0 xen-dyn-virq mce
75: 29 0 xen-dyn-virq hvc_console
