Subject: [PATCH v2] vfio/ccw: Flush notoper_work before returning from reset
Date: Fri,  6 Nov 2026 14:10:26 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106191029.469837-2-oss.patchbox@gmail.com> (raw)

vfio_ccw_dma_unmap() is the DMA invalidation callback, which must unpin
the pages covering the range before it returns.  It calls
vfio_ccw_mdev_reset(), which raises a CLOSE event.

On the normal path fsm_close() calls cp_free() itself, so the pages are
unpinned synchronously.  But if the subchannel cannot be disabled or
quiesced, fsm_close() falls through to a NOT_OPER event.  Since commit
0c11f61a876e ("s390/vfio_ccw: Move cp cleanup out of not operational"),
fsm_notoper() only queues notoper_work, which is where cp_free() then
runs.  That commit flushes the work in vfio_ccw_mdev_close_device() and
vfio_ccw_mdev_release_dev(), but nothing waits for it on the reset
path, so the callback returns with the pages still pinned.

Because notoper_work runs asynchronously, vfio_dma_do_unmap() can exhaust
its 10 retries before cp_free() completes, hitting BUG_ON(++retries > 10)
and taking the host down.  A further CLOSE cannot help either, as both
CLOSE and OPEN are fsm_nop in the NOT_OPER state.

Flush notoper_work after the CLOSE event, as vfio_ccw_mdev_close_device()
already does.  The flush returns immediately when the work was never
queued, so the normal path is unaffected.

Fixes: 0c11f61a876e ("s390/vfio_ccw: Move cp cleanup out of not operational")

v2:
- Point the Fixes tag at 0c11f61a876e, which moved cp_free() into
  notoper_work. v1 named ce4b4657ff18 by mistake.
- Mention that commit in the changelog.
- Rebased on v7.4-rc1.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260922164928.477669-1-oss.patchbox@gmail.com/

Found by code review. Cross-compiled for s390 with gcc 14.2.0, W=1 clean,
but not tested on s390 hardware and I have no reproducer.

VFIO_DEVICE_RESET also reaches vfio_ccw_mdev_reset() and benefits from
this flush, ensuring channel program memory is cleanly released before
the reset ioctl returns.

On locking: the flush is not called with io_mutex held.  cp_iova_pinned()
takes and drops it before vfio_ccw_mdev_reset() runs, vfio_ccw_fsm_event()
takes no lock, and the VFIO_DEVICE_RESET path holds nothing.  This matches
vfio_ccw_mdev_close_device(), which already flushes the same work.
