In unprivileged Xen guests event handling can cause a deadlock with
Xen console handling. The evtchn_rwlock and the hvc_lock are taken in
opposite sequence in __hvc_poll() and in Xen console IRQ handling.
Normally this is no problem, as the evtchn_rwlock is taken as a reader
in both paths, but as soon as an event channel is being closed, the
lock will be taken as a writer, which will cause read_lock() to block:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
(IRQ handling) (__hvc_poll()) (closing event channel)
read_lock(evtchn_rwlock)
spin_lock(hvc_lock)
write_lock(evtchn_rwlock)
[blocks]
spin_lock(hvc_lock)
[blocks]
read_lock(evtchn_rwlock)
[blocks due to writer waiting,
and not in_interrupt()]
This issue can be avoided by replacing evtchn_rwlock with RCU in
xen_free_irq(). Note that RCU is used only to delay freeing of the
irq_info memory. There is no RCU based dereferencing or replacement of
pointers involved.
In order to avoid potential races between removing the irq_info
reference and handling of interrupts, set the irq_info pointer to NULL
only when freeing its memory. The IRQ itself must be freed at that
time, too, as otherwise the same IRQ number could be allocated again
before handling of the old instance would have been finished.
This is XSA-441 / CVE-2023-34324.
