[PATCH 5.14 061/162] napi: fix race inside napi_enable

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[ Upstream commit 3765996e4f0b8a755cab215a08df744490c76052 ]

The process will cause napi.state to contain NAPI_STATE_SCHED and
not in the poll_list, which will cause napi_disable() to get stuck.

The prefix "NAPI_STATE_" is removed in the figure below, and
NAPI_STATE_HASHED is ignored in napi.state.

CPU0 | CPU1 | napi.state
===============================================================================
napi_disable() | | SCHED | NPSVC
napi_enable() | |
{ | |
smp_mb__before_atomic(); | |
clear_bit(SCHED, &n->state); | | NPSVC
| napi_schedule_prep() | SCHED | NPSVC
| napi_poll() |
| napi_complete_done() |
| { |
| if (n->state & (NPSVC | | (1)
| _BUSY_POLL))) |
| return false; |
| ................ |
| } | SCHED | NPSVC
| |
clear_bit(NPSVC, &n->state); | | SCHED
} | |
| |
napi_schedule_prep() | | SCHED | MISSED (2)

(1) Here return direct. Because of NAPI_STATE_NPSVC exists.
(2) NAPI_STATE_SCHED exists. So not add napi.poll_list to sd->poll_list

Since NAPI_STATE_SCHED already exists and napi is not in the
sd->poll_list queue, NAPI_STATE_SCHED cannot be cleared and will always
exist.

1. This will cause this queue to no longer receive packets.
2. If you encounter napi_disable under the protection of rtnl_lock, it
will cause the entire rtnl_lock to be locked, affecting the overall
system.

This patch uses cmpxchg to implement napi_enable(), which ensures that
there will be no race due to the separation of clear two bits.
