This is a reboot of my original series to address the problem of drivers
for legacy ISA devices accessing unmapped IO port regions on arm64 systems
and causing the system to crash.
There was another recent report of such an issue [0], and some old ones
[1] and [2] for reference.
The background is that many systems do not include PCI host controllers,
or they do and controller probe may have failed. For these cases, no IO
ports are mapped. However, loading drivers for legacy ISA devices can
crash the system as there is nothing to stop them accessing those IO
ports (which have not been io remap'ed).
My original solution tried to keep the kernel alive in these situations by
rejecting logical PIO access to PCI IO regions until PCI IO port regions
have been mapped.
This series goes one step further, by just reserving the complete legacy
IO port range in 0x0--0xffff for arm64. The motivation for doing this is
to make the request_region() calls for those drivers fail, like this:
root@ubuntu:/home/john# insmod mk712.ko
[ 3415.575800] mk712: unable to get IO region
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module mk712.ko: No such device
Otherwise, in theory, those drivers could initiate rogue accesses to
mapped IO port regions for other devices and cause corruptions or
side-effects. Indeed, those drivers should not be allowed to access
IO ports at all in such a system.
As a secondary defence, for broken drivers who do not call
request_region(), IO port accesses in range 0--0xffff will be ignored,
again preserving the system.
I am sending as an RFC as I am not sure of any problem with reserving
first 0x10000 of IO space like this. There is reserve= commandline
argument, which does allow this already.
Hi John,
Is it ok with ACPI? I'm not really familiar with ACPI on arm64 but my
impression
is ACPI would use legacy I/O ports to communicate with kbd controller,
EC and
power management facilities.
We'd better have a method to detect if ISA bus is not present on the system
instead of reserve them unconditionally.
Thanks.
