[PATCH v4 0/3] drm/i915: Fix VMA UAF on destroy against deactivate race

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Object debugging tools were sporadically reporting illegal attempts to
free a still active i915 VMA object when parking a GPU tile believed to be
idle.

That has been tracked down to be happening when another thread is
deactivating the VMA inside __active_retire() helper, after the VMA's
active counter has been already decremented to 0, but before deactivation
of the VMA's object is reported to the object debugging tool.

There was an attempt to fix this issue on 2-tile Meteor Lake by acquiring
an extra wakeref for a Primary GT from i915_gem_do_execbuffer() -- see
commit f56fe3e91787 ("drm/i915: Fix a VMA UAF for multi-gt platform").
However, it occurred insufficient -- the issue was still reported by CI.
That wakeref was released on exit from i915_gem_do_execbuffer(), then
potentially before completion of the request and deactivation of its
associated VMAs.

I believe the issue was introduced by commit d93939730347 ("drm/i915:
Remove the vma refcount") which moved a call to i915_active_fini() from
a dropped i915_vma_release(), called on last put of the removed VMA kref,
to i915_vma_parked() processing path called on last put of a GT wakeref.
However, its visibility to the object debugging tool was suppressed by a
bug in i915_active that was fixed two weeks later with commit e92eb246feb9
("drm/i915/active: Fix missing debug object activation").

Fix the issue by getting a wakeref for the VMA's tile when activating it,
and putting that wakeref only after the VMA is deactivated.  However,
exclude global GTT from that processing path, otherwise the GPU never goes
idle.  Since __i915_vma_retire() may be called from atomic contexts, use
async variant of wakeref put.

Having that fixed, stop explicitly acquiring the extra GT0 wakeref from
inside i915_gem_do_execbuffer(), and also drop an extra call to
i915_active_wait(), introduced by commit 7a2280e8dcd2 ("drm/i915: Wait for
active retire before i915_active_fini()") as another insufficient fix for
this UAF race.

v4: Refresh on top of commit 5e4e06e4087e ("drm/i915: Track gt pm
    wakerefs") (Andi),
  - for more easy backporting, split out removal of former insufficient
    workarounds and move them to separate patches (Nirmoy).
