Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.6 48/59] usb: typec: fusb302: fix scheduling while atomic when using virtio-gpio
Date: Sun, 3 Aug 2025 20:34:02 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250804003413.3622950-48-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)

[ Upstream commit 1c2d81bded1993bb2c7125a911db63612cdc8d40 ]
When the gpio irqchip connected to a slow bus(e.g., i2c bus or virtio
bus), calling disable_irq_nosync() in top-half ISR handler will trigger
the following kernel BUG:

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
**Backport Status: YES**
This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees. Here's my
extensive analysis:
## Bug Analysis
The commit fixes a critical "scheduling while atomic" bug that occurs
when the fusb302 USB Type-C controller uses GPIO interrupts connected
through slow buses (like I2C or virtio). The bug manifests as a kernel
BUG with the following call trace showing `__schedule_bug` being
triggered from within an atomic context.
## Technical Details of the Bug
1. **Root Cause**: The fusb302 driver's interrupt handler
(`fusb302_irq_intn`) calls `disable_irq_nosync()` from the top-half
ISR context (lines 1480-1481 in the original code). When the GPIO
controller is connected via a slow bus like virtio-gpio, the
`disable_irq_nosync()` operation requires bus transactions that can
sleep, which is forbidden in atomic/interrupt context.
2. **The Problem Flow**:
- Hardware interrupt occurs → `fusb302_irq_intn` ISR runs in atomic
context
- ISR calls `disable_irq_nosync(chip->gpio_int_n_irq)`
- virtio-gpio's `virtio_gpio_irq_bus_sync_unlock()` needs to
communicate over virtio bus
- This requires `wait_for_completion()` which can sleep
- Sleeping in atomic context triggers the kernel BUG
## The Fix
The fix replaces `request_irq()` with `devm_request_threaded_irq()` and
removes the problematic `disable_irq_nosync()`/`enable_irq()` pattern:
1. **Before**: Used regular IRQ handler that disabled the interrupt in
top-half, scheduled work, then re-enabled in bottom-half
2. **After**: Uses threaded IRQ handler which naturally handles the
interrupt masking/unmasking without explicit calls
Key changes:
- Line 1751-1754: Changed from `request_irq()` to
`devm_request_threaded_irq()` with NULL top-half handler
- Line 1481: Removed `disable_irq_nosync()` call from ISR
- Line 1625: Removed corresponding `enable_irq()` call from work
function
- Line 1750: Removed `free_irq()` call (handled by devm_*)
## Stable Backport Criteria Evaluation
1. **Fixes a bug affecting users**: YES - This fixes a kernel BUG that
causes system instability
2. **Relatively small and contained**: YES - Only 7 lines changed,
confined to one driver file
3. **Clear side effects**: NO - The fix is straightforward with no
architectural changes
4. **Major architectural changes**: NO - Simply changes IRQ registration
method
5. **Critical kernel subsystems**: NO - Limited to USB Type-C controller
driver
6. **Stable tree mention**: NO - But follows stable tree rules perfectly
7. **Follows stable rules**: YES - Important bugfix with minimal risk
## Additional Considerations
- The bug only manifests with specific hardware configurations (virtio-
gpio or slow I2C GPIO expanders)
- The fix is a standard pattern used throughout the kernel for similar
issues
- Using `devm_request_threaded_irq()` is actually cleaner and provides
automatic cleanup
- No functional changes to the driver's behavior, only fixes the atomic
scheduling violation
- Similar fixes have been applied to other drivers facing the same issue
pattern
This is an ideal stable backport candidate: it fixes a real bug that
causes kernel panics, the fix is minimal and well-understood, and
there's virtually no risk of regression.
