Subject: [PATCH v4 05/17] irq & spin_lock: Add counted interrupt disabling/enabling
Date: Tue,  4 Aug 2026 09:14:27 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260804161447.84806-6-boqun@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260804161447.84806-1-boqun@kernel.org>

Currently the nested interrupt disabling and enabling is represented by
_irqsave() and _irqrestore() APIs, which are relatively unsafe, for
example:

	<interrupts are enabled as beginning>
	spin_lock_irqsave(l1, flag1);
	spin_lock_irqsave(l2, flag2);
	spin_unlock_irqrestore(l1, flags1);
	<l2 is still held but interrupts are enabled>
	// accesses to interrupt-disable protected data will cause races

This is even easier to trigger with guard facilities:

	unsigned long flag2;

	scoped_guard(spin_lock_irqsave, l1) {
		spin_lock_irqsave(l2, flag2);
	}
	// l2 locked but interrupts are enabled.
	spin_unlock_irqrestore(l2, flag2);

(Hand-to-hand locking critical sections are not uncommon for a
fine-grained lock design)

And because of this unsafety, Rust cannot easily wrap the
interrupt-disabling locks in a safe API, which complicates the design.

To resolve this, introduce a new set of interrupt disabling APIs:

*	local_interrupt_disable();
*	local_interrupt_enable();

They work like local_irq_save() and local_irq_restore() except that 1)
the outermost local_interrupt_disable() call saves the interrupt state
into a per-CPU variable, so that the outermost local_interrupt_enable()
can restore the state, and 2) a per-CPU counter is added to record the
nest level of these calls, so that interrupts are not accidentally
enabled inside the outermost critical section.

Also add the corresponding spin_lock primitives: spin_lock_irq_disable()
and spin_unlock_irq_enable(), as a result, code as follows:

	spin_lock_irq_disable(l1);
	spin_lock_irq_disable(l2);
	spin_unlock_irq_enable(l1);
	// Interrupts are still disabled.
	spin_unlock_irq_enable(l2);

doesn't have the issue that interrupts are accidentally enabled.

This also makes the wrapper of interrupt-disabling locks on Rust easier
to design.
