ACPICA commit c9e0116952363b0fa815143dca7e9a2eb4fefa61 The handling of the generic_serial_bus (I2C) and GPIO op_regions in acpi_ev_address_space_dispatch() passes a number of extra parameters to the address-space handler through the address-space Context pointer (instead of using more function parameters). The Context is shared between threads, so if multiple threads try to call the handler for the same address-space at the same time, then a second thread could change the parameters of a first thread while the handler is running for the first thread. An example of this race hitting is the Lenovo Yoga Tablet2 1015L, where there are both attrib_bytes accesses and attrib_byte accesses to the same address-space. The attrib_bytes access stores the number of bytes to transfer in Context->access_length. Where as for the attrib_byte access the number of bytes to transfer is always 1 and field_obj->Field.access_length is unused (so 0). Both types of accesses racing from different threads leads to the following problem: 1. Thread a. starts an attrib_bytes access, stores a non 0 value from field_obj->Field.access_length in Context->access_length 2. Thread b. starts an attrib_byte access, stores 0 in Context->access_length 3. Thread a. calls i2c_acpi_space_handler() (under Linux). Which sees that the access-type is ACPI_GSB_ACCESS_ATTRIB_MULTIBYTE and calls acpi_gsb_i2c_read_bytes(..., Context->access_length) 4. At this point Context->access_length is 0 (set by thread b.) rather then the field_obj->Field.access_length value from thread a. This 0 length reads leads to the following errors being logged: i2c i2c-0: adapter quirk: no zero length (addr 0x0078, size 0, read) i2c i2c-0: i2c read 0 bytes from client@0x78 starting at reg 0x0 failed, error: -95 Note this is just an example of the problems which this race can cause. There are likely many more (sporadic) problems caused by this race. This commit adds a new context_mutex to struct acpi_object_addr_handler and makes acpi_ev_address_space_dispatch() take that mutex when using the shared Context to pass extra parameters to an address-space handler, fixing this race. Note the new mutex must be taken *after* exiting the interpreter, therefor the existing acpi_ex_exit_interpreter() call is moved to above the code which stores the extra parameters in the Context.
