Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: sf-pdma: Add multithread support for a DMA channel When we get a DMA channel and try to use it in multiple threads it will cause oops and hanging the system. % echo 64 > /sys/module/dmatest/parameters/threadsperchan % echo 10000 > /sys/module/dmatest/parameters/iterations % echo 1 > /sys/module/dmatest/parameters/run [ 89.480664] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000000a0 [ 89.488725] Oops [#1] [ 89.494708] CPU: 2 PID: 1008 Comm: dma0chan0-copy0 Not tainted 5.17.0-rc5 [ 89.509385] epc : vchanfinddesc+0x32/0x46 [ 89.513553] ra : sfpdmatxstatus+0xca/0xd6 This happens because of data race. Each thread rewrite channels's descriptor as soon as deviceprepdmamemcpy() is called. It leads to the situation when the driver thinks that it uses right descriptor that actually is freed or substituted for other one. With current fixes a descriptor changes its value only when it has been used. A new descriptor is acquired from vc->desc_issued queue that is already filled with descriptors that are ready to be sent. Threads have no direct access to DMA channel descriptor. Now it is just possible to queue a descriptor for further processing.
