Subject: [PATCH 00/17] [PATCH 00/17] dmaengine: idxd: fixes found by an in-kernel polling client
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2026 08:06:13 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261019150630.4026341-1-daniel1.byrne@intel.com> (raw)
These are fixes for bugs in the idxd driver that an in-kernel polling
client exposed while sharing DSA work queues between many io_uring rings
(that client is to be posted separately as "io_uring: DMA-engine copy offload
for buffered file I/O"). They apply to v7.3 on their own and do not
depend on that series. Each patch says which released kernels it
affects; the ones that fit stable are tagged.
In short:
- the event-log fault path dereferences a NULL workqueue on a kernel WQ
(stable, 6.4+), plus a hardening of the user WQ's workqueue teardown;
- a memcpy longer than the work queue's transfer limit is accepted at
prep and fails silently in hardware (stable, 5.10+);
- a channel is listed before it is complete, and a failed registration
leaves a freed channel on the list (stable, 5.13+);
- the device driver is unbound after its work queues were freed;
- terminate_all releases the work queue's interrupt handle for good
(stable, 7.0+);
- device commands wait forever, and the interrupt-handle release writes
over a running command; the device disable misreads the fail-fast
status as "already disabled"; the device is disabled after its
queues' software state is gone; a reset loses the command interrupt
it re-creates;
- terminate_all frees descriptor slots the device still holds, and
drains and resets report a timeout as a completed drain;
- a descriptor whose submission failed is freed twice (stable, 5.14+);
- an iaa_crypto descriptor is completed as a dmaengine transaction on
abort and flush (stable, 6.8+);
- software- and system-reset halts never flush the work queues, a halt
flush strips the callbacks of live clients, and the interrupt-handle
revoke runs without the queue lock.
Tested on a Granite Rapids system with four DSA devices: crc32c-verified
DMA I/O from the io_uring client under WQ unbind, live unbind and rebind,
driver unbind, PCI FLR and PCI driver unbind and rebind, on a v7.2-based
tree, clean under KASAN, DMA_API_DEBUG and lockdep; the v7.3 rebase is
conflict-free and build-tested per patch.
Daniel Byrne (17):
dmaengine: idxd: don't queue EVL fault work for kernel WQs
dmaengine: idxd: detach the user fault workqueue under the event log
lock
dmaengine: idxd: refuse a memcpy longer than the WQ max transfer size
dmaengine: idxd: list a new channel only once it is complete
dmaengine: idxd: unbind the device driver before its work queues go
away
dmaengine: idxd: keep the interrupt handle across terminate_all
dmaengine: idxd: bound device command waits and fail fast after a
timeout
dmaengine: idxd: compare the device disable status code whole
dmaengine: idxd: quarantine terminate_all's descriptor slots until the
device has drained
dmaengine: idxd: return -ETIMEDOUT from drains and resets and leak
what the device may still write
dmaengine: idxd: disable the device before its work queues are
unregistered
dmaengine: idxd: hold device commands off while the reset re-creates
its interrupts
dmaengine: idxd: fix the double free of a descriptor whose submission
failed
dmaengine: idxd: complete an iaa_crypto descriptor through its own
driver on abort and flush
dmaengine: idxd: flush the work queues on every halt type
dmaengine: idxd: keep client callbacks on a halt flush and cancel
resubmissions after a terminate
dmaengine: idxd: run the interrupt-handle revoke under the queue lock
