The GICv3 driver doesn't check if the target CPU for gic_set_affinity is valid before going ahead and making the changes. This triggers the following splat with KASAN: [ 141.189434] BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in gic_set_affinity+0x8c/0x140 [ 141.189704] Read of size 8 at addr ffff200009741d20 by task swapper/1/0 [ 141.189958] [ 141.190158] CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 4.12.0-rc7 [ 141.190458] Hardware name: Foundation-v8A (DT) [ 141.190658] Call trace: [ 141.190908] [<ffff200008089d70>] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x328 [ 141.191224] [<ffff20000808a1b4>] show_stack+0x14/0x20 [ 141.191507] [<ffff200008504c3c>] dump_stack+0xa4/0xc8 [ 141.191858] [<ffff20000826c19c>] print_address_description+0x13c/0x250 [ 141.192219] [<ffff20000826c5c8>] kasan_report+0x210/0x300 [ 141.192547] [<ffff20000826ad54>] __asan_load8+0x84/0x98 [ 141.192874] [<ffff20000854eeec>] gic_set_affinity+0x8c/0x140 [ 141.193158] [<ffff200008148b14>] irq_do_set_affinity+0x54/0xb8 [ 141.193473] [<ffff200008148d2c>] irq_set_affinity_locked+0x64/0xf0 [ 141.193828] [<ffff200008148e00>] __irq_set_affinity+0x48/0x78 [ 141.194158] [<ffff200008bc48a4>] arm_perf_starting_cpu+0x104/0x150 [ 141.194513] [<ffff2000080d73bc>] cpuhp_invoke_callback+0x17c/0x1f8 [ 141.194783] [<ffff2000080d94ec>] notify_cpu_starting+0x8c/0xb8 [ 141.195130] [<ffff2000080911ec>] secondary_start_kernel+0x15c/0x200 [ 141.195390] [<0000000080db81b4>] 0x80db81b4 [ 141.195603] [ 141.195685] The buggy address belongs to the variable: [ 141.196012] __cpu_logical_map+0x200/0x220 [ 141.196176] [ 141.196315] Memory state around the buggy address: [ 141.196586] ffff200009741c00: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 141.196913] ffff200009741c80: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 141.197158] >ffff200009741d00: 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 141.197487] ^ [ 141.197758] ffff200009741d80: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 [ 141.198060] ffff200009741e00: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 141.198358] ================================================================== [ 141.198609] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint [ 141.198961] CPU1: Booted secondary processor [410fd051] This patch adds the check to make sure the cpu is valid.
