Subject: [PATCH v3 0/9] Don't whitelist OA registers unconditionally
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2026 15:42:18 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260615224227.34880-1-ashutosh.dixit@intel.com> (raw)
Whitelisting OA registers unconditionally is a security violation. In this
series we resolve this issue as follows:
* Set the 'deny' bit (bit 30) for all OA registers, ensuring OA registers
are not whitelisted by default after probe/reset/restart
* Reset the 'deny' bit when an OA stream is opened and certain conditions
are met, whitelisting OA registers only for the duration when OA streams
are open for a gt
* Set the 'deny' bit again, when OA streams are closed
* To manage this scheme, separate out OA whitelists from non-OA whitelists
(into separate save-restore lists)
v2: Address code review from Umesh. Patches changed in v2 have changelog
appended to commit message
v3: Minor change to Patch 3
Ashutosh Dixit (9):
drm/xe/rtp: Add RING_FORCE_TO_NONPRIV_DENY to OA whitelists
drm/xe/rtp: Maintain OA whitelists separately
drm/xe/rtp: Keep track of non-OA nonpriv slots
drm/xe/rtp: Generalize whitelist_apply_to_hwe
drm/xe/rtp: Save OA nonpriv registers to register save/restore lists
drm/xe/rtp: Toggle 'deny' bit to (de-)whitelist OA regs
drm/xe/rtp: (De-)whitelist OA registers for all hwe's for a gt
drm/xe/oa: (De-)whitelist OA registers on OA stream open/release
drm/xe/rtp: Ensure locking/ref counting for OA whitelists
