This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled vfio/fsl-mc: Block calling interrupt handler without trigger to the 6.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: vfio-fsl-mc-block-calling-interrupt-handler-without-trigger.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 7447d911af699a15f8d050dfcb7c680a86f87012 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 8 Mar 2024 16:05:28 -0700 Subject: vfio/fsl-mc: Block calling interrupt handler without trigger From: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 7447d911af699a15f8d050dfcb7c680a86f87012 upstream. The eventfd_ctx trigger pointer of the vfio_fsl_mc_irq object is initially NULL and may become NULL if the user sets the trigger eventfd to -1. The interrupt handler itself is guaranteed that trigger is always valid between request_irq() and free_irq(), but the loopback testing mechanisms to invoke the handler function need to test the trigger. The triggering and setting ioctl paths both make use of igate and are therefore mutually exclusive. The vfio-fsl-mc driver does not make use of irqfds, nor does it support any sort of masking operations, therefore unlike vfio-pci and vfio-platform, the flow can remain essentially unchanged.
