Subject: [PATCH v2] crypto: ccp: Fix SNP panic notifier unregistration
Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2025 20:38:03 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250605203803.4688-1-Ashish.Kalra@amd.com> (raw)
From: Ashish Kalra <ashish.kalra@amd.com>
Panic notifiers are invoked with RCU read lock held and when the
SNP panic notifier tries to unregister itself from the panic
notifier callback itself it causes a deadlock as notifier
unregistration does RCU synchronization.
Code flow for SNP panic notifier:
snp_shutdown_on_panic() ->
__sev_firmware_shutdown() ->
__sev_snp_shutdown_locked() ->
atomic_notifier_chain_unregister(.., &snp_panic_notifier)
Fix SNP panic notifier to unregister itself during SNP shutdown
only if panic is not in progress.
Fixes: 19860c3274fb ("crypto: ccp - Register SNP panic notifier only if SNP is enabled")
