This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled riscv: Disable preemption while handling PR_RISCV_CTX_SW_FENCEI_OFF to the 6.10-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: riscv-disable-preemption-while-handling-pr_riscv_ctx.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 3db126dcdd5dee7030c9cd2a9062cce5842a88ff Author: Charlie Jenkins <charlie@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Sep 3 15:52:34 2024 -0700 riscv: Disable preemption while handling PR_RISCV_CTX_SW_FENCEI_OFF [ Upstream commit 7c1e5b9690b0e14acead4ff98d8a6c40f2dff54b ] The icache will be flushed in switch_to() if force_icache_flush is true, or in flush_icache_deferred() if icache_stale_mask is set. Between setting force_icache_flush to false and calculating the new icache_stale_mask, preemption needs to be disabled. There are two reasons for this: 1. If CPU migration happens between force_icache_flush = false, and the icache_stale_mask is set, an icache flush will not be emitted. 2. smp_processor_id() is used in set_icache_stale_mask() to mark the current CPU as not needing another flush since a flush will have happened either by userspace or by the kernel when performing the migration. smp_processor_id() is currently called twice with preemption enabled which causes a race condition. It allows icache_stale_mask to be populated with inconsistent CPU ids. Resolve these two issues by setting the icache_stale_mask before setting force_icache_flush to false, and using get_cpu()/put_cpu() to obtain the smp_processor_id().
