Subject: [PATCH] x86/sgx: Fix deadloop in __sgx_alloc_epc_page()
Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2024 10:38:00 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240829023800.1671210-1-aaron.lu@intel.com> (raw)

When current node doesn't have a EPC section configured by firmware and
all other EPC sections memory are used up, CPU can stuck inside the
while loop in __sgx_alloc_epc_page() forever and soft lockup will happen.
Note how nid_of_current will never equal to nid in that while loop because
nid_of_current is not set in sgx_numa_mask.

Also worth mentioning is that it's perfectly fine for firmware to not
seup an EPC section on a node. Setting an EPC section on each node can
be good for performance but that's not a requirement functionality wise.

Fixes: 901ddbb9ecf5 ("x86/sgx: Add a basic NUMA allocation scheme to sgx_alloc_epc_page()")

This issue is found by Zhimin when doing internal testing and no
external bug report has been sent out so there is no Closes: tag.
