[PATCH v5 0/6] Enable lock context analysis in the SCSI core and UFS driver

[PATCH v5 0/6] Enable lock context analysis in the SCSI core and UFS driver

[Bart Van Assche]

Hi Martin,

This patch series enables lock context analysis for the SCSI core and the UFS
driver. The advantages are as follows:
 - The compiler (only Clang) verifies whether the lock and unlock calls match
   what has been declared via __must_hold(), __acquires() or __releases().
   This is useful for catching locking bugs in error paths.
 - Support for __guarded_by() is enabled. If a member variable is annotated
   with __guarded_by(lock), the compiler will issue a warning if that member
   variable is accessed without holding 'lock'.

Additionally, a patch is included that suppresses KCSAN complaints about SCSI
host state changes.

More information about lock context analysis is available in the cover letter of
[PATCH v5 00/36] Compiler-Based Context- and Locking-Analysis
(https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20251219154418.3592607-1-elver@google.com/).

Please consider this patch series for the next merge window.

Thanks,

Bart.

Changes compared to v4:
 - Added Reviewed-by tags to the UFS patches.
 - Made the title and the description of patch 3/6 more detailed.

Changes compared to v3:
 - Left out all changes except those for the SCSI core and the UFS driver.

Changes compared to v2:
 - Added patch "scsi: core: Pass the SCSI host pointer directly".
 - Corrected several annotations that had missing or extra ampersands (&).
 - Reduced the number of __assume_ctx_lock() statements.

Changes compared to v1:
 - Split patch "Enable lock context analysis" into one patch per driver.

[PATCH v5 1/6] ufs: core: Set task state before io_schedule_timeout()

[Bart Van Assche]

Set the task state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE before calling
io_schedule_timeout() in ufshcd_wait_for_pending_cmds().
Without setting the task state, io_schedule_timeout() returns
immediately because the task state remains TASK_RUNNING. This
results in a busy loop that wastes CPU cycles.

[PATCH v5 3/6] scsi: core: Pass the SCSI host pointer directly to scanning functions

[Bart Van Assche]

In the functions scsi_probe_and_add_lun(), scsi_sequential_lun_scan(),
scsi_report_lun_scan() and __scsi_scan_target() the SCSI host pointer is
derived from the SCSI target pointer. Pass the SCSI host pointer
directly.

This patch prepares for enabling lock context analysis. With this patch
applied, lock context annotations can refer to the SCSI host pointer
directly, e.g. __must_hold(&shost->scan_mutex). Without this patch, the
following annotation would have to be used:
	__must_hold(&dev_to_shost(starget->dev.parent)->scan_mutex)
Additionally, in code that locks shost->scan_mutex, the following would
have to be added to help the compiler understand that shost ==
dev_to_shost(starget->dev.parent):
	__assume_ctx_lock(&dev_to_shost(starget->dev.parent)->scan_mutex);
__assume_ctx_lock() statements should be avoided if there is a good
alternative. Hence this patch. No functionality has been changed.

[PATCH v5 5/6] scsi: core: Protect host state changes with the host lock

[Bart Van Assche]

Some but not all SCSI host state changes are protected with the SCSI
host lock. Annotate the SCSI host state with __guarded_by(host_lock),
protect all SCSI host state changes with the SCSI host lock and use
READ_ONCE() for all SCSI host state reads. This patch prevents that
KCSAN complains about data races when accessing the SCSI host state.

without triggering any compiler warnings.

Re: [PATCH v5 4/6] scsi: core: Add lock context annotations

[sashiko-bot]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:

New issues:
- [Low] Incomplete implementation of lock context annotations.

Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Integer overflow in `scsi_report_lun_scan` leading to infinite loop or out-of-bounds read.

scsi: core: Add lock context annotations

This commit adds lock context annotations to document which functions expect
shost->scan_mutex to be held.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but while looking at scsi_report_lun_scan()
there appears to be an integer overflow condition when handling untrusted
device input.

If a malicious device returns 0xFFFFFFFF as the length in a REPORT LUNS
response, the addition with sizeof(struct scsi_lun) can cause an overflow:

	if (get_unaligned_be32(lun_data->scsi_lun) +
	    sizeof(struct scsi_lun) > length) {
		length = get_unaligned_be32(lun_data->scsi_lun) +
			 sizeof(struct scsi_lun);
		kfree(lun_data);
		goto retry;
	}

On 64-bit platforms, size_t promotion causes the addition to evaluate to
0x100000007, which is greater than length. When this is assigned back to the
32-bit length variable, it truncates to 7. This causes the code to reallocate
a 7-byte buffer and retry indefinitely, leading to a deadlock on scan_mutex.

On 32-bit platforms, the addition wraps to 7, skipping the reallocation
entirely. The length variable stays 0xFFFFFFFF, which results in a massive
num_luns count and eventually an out-of-bounds read past the buffer.

Could we add a bounds check to ensure the reported length doesn't overflow
before we attempt to reallocate?

[ ... ]

[Severity: Low]
Are there other functions that should be included in this update? Looking
through the SCSI core code, there are a few other static and internal helpers
that rely on scan_mutex being held, such as scsi_sysfs_add_devices() in
scsi_scan.c:

static void scsi_sysfs_add_devices(struct Scsi_Host *shost)
{
    ...
}

and __scsi_remove_device() in scsi_sysfs.c:

void __scsi_remove_device(struct scsi_device *sdev)
{
    ...
}

Would it be useful to add the __must_hold annotation to these functions as
well so static analysis tools can catch missing locks across the subsystem?

nit: it would be nice to use consistent variable names throughout the 
code, either state or host_state , if possible.

I am wondering if it may be better to protect reading this with the 
spinlock as well. We could lose the READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE. And we 
would be more symmetrical with the set function.

I really don't feel strongly about this, though.

How come we have this in the prototype and not the actual function itself?

Do you mean context analysis compiler warnings? If so, are there files 
which do trigger context analysis compiler warnings?

Hi Bart,

In future would we enable context analysis for other members of 
Scsi_Host or other core structures which are protected by 
shost->host_lock, like __scsi_find_target() which scans &shost->targets 
and requires that lock to be held? Or __scsi_device_lookup()?

I appreciate that this is just the first series for SCSI, but I am just 
curious on any plans.

Thanks,
John

Yes, that's what I meant.

Yes, multiple. All code changes and lock context annotations added by
this patch series are necessary to make all SCSI drivers build without
triggering lock context analysis compiler warnings:
"[PATCH v3 00/57] Enable lock context analysis for the SCSI subsystem"

I slightly prefer READ_ONCE() because READ_ONCE() makes it clear that a
race condition is triggered. Protecting the host state read with a
spinlock is misleading in my opinion because it suppresses data race
reports while the host state can change as soon as the spinlock has
been unlocked.

Adding __must_hold() to the function declaration is sufficient. Adding
__must_hold() to the function definition is optional if it has already 
been added to the function definition.

Bart.

Understood, but I would have thought that adding it in the actual 
function would be nice as when developers analyze the code, they look at 
the function and not the prototype (and it is nice to know the locking 
state).

John

I prefer lockless access from scsi_get_host_state() because this
function is called from the hot path. Using locking inside this
function would cause lock contention on the host lock in the hot path.

Thanks,

Bart.
