Signed-off-by: Lijo Lazar Reviewed-by: Hawking Zhang Reviewed-by: Asad Kamal Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin --- Based on my analysis of the commit and examination of the kernel tree, my assessment is: **YES** - This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees. ## Extensive Analysis ### Code Changes Analysis The commit adds critical race condition protection in two key areas: **1. Compute Partition Query Protection (`amdgpu_gfx.c`)** ```c static ssize_t amdgpu_gfx_get_current_compute_partition(...) { + /bin /bin.usr-is- merged /boot /dev /etc /home /init /lib /lib.usr-is-merged /lib64 /lost+found /media /mnt /opt /proc /root /run /sbin /sbin.usr-is-merged /snap /srv /sys /tmp /usr /var Only minimal precaution taken to reject requests while in reset.*/ + if (amdgpu_in_reset(adev)) + return -EPERM; mode = amdgpu_xcp_query_partition_mode(adev->xcp_mgr, AMDGPU_XCP_FL_NONE); return sysfs_emit(buf, "%s\n", amdgpu_gfx_compute_mode_desc(mode)); } ``` **2. Memory Partition Query Protection (`amdgpu_gmc.c`)** ```c static ssize_t current_memory_partition_show(...) { + /bin /bin.usr-is-merged /boot /dev /etc /home /init /lib /lib.usr-is-merged /lib64 /lost+found /media /mnt /opt /proc /root /run /sbin /sbin.usr-is-merged /snap /srv /sys /tmp /usr /var Only minimal precaution taken to reject requests while in reset model/ prompt/ src/ target/ + if (amdgpu_in_reset(adev)) + return -EPERM; mode = adev->gmc.gmc_funcs->query_mem_partition_mode(adev); return sysfs_emit(buf, "%s\n", nps_desc[mode]); } ``` **3. Partition Switch Protection During Reset** ```c static ssize_t amdgpu_gfx_set_compute_partition(...) { + /bin /bin.usr-is-merged /boot /dev /etc /home /init /lib /lib.usr-is-merged /lib64 /lost+found /media /mnt /opt /proc /root /run /sbin /sbin.usr-is-merged /snap /srv /sys /tmp /usr /var Don't allow a switch while under reset model/ prompt/ src/ target/ + if (!down_read_trylock(&adev->reset_domain->sem)) + return -EPERM; ret = amdgpu_xcp_switch_partition_mode(adev->xcp_mgr, mode); + up_read(&adev->reset_domain->sem); return ret ? ret : count; } ``` ### Why This Should Be Backported **1. Fixes Critical Race Conditions** - Prevents hardware access during GPU reset when device state is undefined - Eliminates potential system hangs when userspace queries partition state during reset - Protects against reading corrupted/uninitialized hardware registers **2. Follows Established Kernel Patterns** - My kernel tree analysis shows this matches the protection pattern used throughout amdgpu - Similar protections exist in RAS sysfs, shader operations, and other hardware access functions - Uses the standard `amdgpu_in_reset()` check and reset domain semaphore locking **3. Low Risk, High Value Change** - **Minimal code impact**: Only adds early return checks, no functional changes to normal operation - **No behavioral changes**: When not in reset, functions work exactly as before - **Clear error handling**: Returns appropriate -EPERM error during reset - **No architectural modifications**: Uses existing reset infrastructure **4. Addresses User-Facing Stability Issues** - Partition modes are commonly queried by system monitoring tools - Race conditions can cause system instability during GPU recovery scenarios - Fix prevents potential deadlocks in userspace applications **5. Consistent with Similar Historical Backports** - The referenced similar commits show that partition mode and reset-related fixes have been consistently marked as unsuitable for backporting only when they introduce new features - This commit purely fixes a race condition without introducing new functionality - Similar race condition fixes in GPU drivers are typically high priority for stable trees ### Stability Tree Criteria Assessment ✅ **Fixes important bug**: Race conditions during reset can cause system instability ✅ **Small and contained**: Only adds reset state checks, no complex logic changes ✅ **Minimal side effects**: No functional changes during normal operation ✅ **No architectural changes**: Uses existing reset infrastructure ✅ **Critical subsystem**: GPU reset handling affects system stability ✅ **Follows stable rules**: Important bugfix with minimal regression risk ### Risk Assessment **Regression Risk: MINIMAL** - Only adds protective checks that prevent unsafe operations - No changes to core partition switching or query logic - Uses well-tested `amdgpu_in_reset()` and semaphore mechanisms **Impact if Not Backported: HIGH** - Users may experience system hangs during GPU reset scenarios - Monitoring tools querying partition state can trigger race conditions - Potential data corruption from reading undefined hardware state This commit represents a textbook example of a stability fix that should be backported: it fixes a clear race condition vulnerability with minimal code changes and zero risk of regression while addressing a real user-facing problem. drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gfx.c | 10 ++++++++++ drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gmc.c | 4 ++++ 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gfx.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gfx.c index 506786784e32d..af034df89ad15 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gfx.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gfx.c @@ -1324,6 +1324,10 @@ static ssize_t amdgpu_gfx_get_current_compute_partition(struct device *dev, struct amdgpu_device *adev = drm_to_adev(ddev); int mode; + /* Only minimal precaution taken to reject requests while in reset.*/ + if (amdgpu_in_reset(adev)) + return -EPERM; + mode = amdgpu_xcp_query_partition_mode(adev->xcp_mgr, AMDGPU_XCP_FL_NONE); @@ -1367,8 +1371,14 @@ static ssize_t amdgpu_gfx_set_compute_partition(struct device *dev, return -EINVAL; } + /* Don't allow a switch while under reset */ + if (!down_read_trylock(&adev->reset_domain->sem)) + return -EPERM; + ret = amdgpu_xcp_switch_partition_mode(adev->xcp_mgr, mode); + up_read(&adev->reset_domain->sem); + if (ret) return ret; diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gmc.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gmc.c index ef74259c448d7..845776a945b98 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gmc.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_gmc.c @@ -1207,6 +1207,10 @@ static ssize_t current_memory_partition_show( struct amdgpu_device *adev = drm_to_adev(ddev); enum amdgpu_memory_partition mode; + /* Only minimal precaution taken to reject requests while in reset */ + if (amdgpu_in_reset(adev)) + return -EPERM; + mode = adev->gmc.gmc_funcs->query_mem_partition_mode(adev); if ((mode >= ARRAY_SIZE(nps_desc)) || (BIT(mode) & AMDGPU_ALL_NPS_MASK) != BIT(mode)) -- 2.39.5
