From af83cc7d80e7b42486b6b6cedd951505ea31bbfd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2023 13:57:45 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] x86/i8259: Mark legacy PIC interrupts with IRQ_LEVEL stable inclusion from stable-v4.19.272 commit 496975d1a2937f4baadf3d985991b13fc4fc4f27 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I6KOHU CVE: NA -------------------------------- commit 5fa55950729d0762a787451dc52862c3f850f859 upstream. Baoquan reported that after triggering a crash the subsequent crash-kernel fails to boot about half of the time. It triggers a NULL pointer dereference in the periodic tick code. This happens because the legacy timer interrupt (IRQ0) is resent in software which happens in soft interrupt (tasklet) context. In this context get_irq_regs() returns NULL which leads to the NULL pointer dereference. The reason for the resend is a spurious APIC interrupt on the IRQ0 vector which is captured and leads to a resend when the legacy timer interrupt is enabled. This is wrong because the legacy PIC interrupts are level triggered and therefore should never be resent in software, but nothing ever sets the IRQ_LEVEL flag on those interrupts, so the core code does not know about their trigger type. Ensure that IRQ_LEVEL is set when the legacy PCI interrupts are set up.
