napi: fix race inside napi_enable
[ Upstream commit 3765996e4f0b8a755cab215a08df744490c76052 ] The process will cause napi.state to contain NAPI_STATE_SCHED and not in the poll_list, which will cause napi_disable() to get stuck. The prefix "NAPI_STATE_" is removed in the figure below, and NAPI_STATE_HASHED is ignored in napi.state. CPU0 | CPU1 | napi.state =============================================================================== napi_disable() | | SCHED | NPSVC napi_enable() | | { | | smp_mb__before_atomic(); | | clear_bit(SCHED, &n->state); | | NPSVC | napi_schedule_prep() | SCHED | NPSVC | napi_poll() | | napi_complete_done() | | { | | if (n->state & (NPSVC | | (1) | _BUSY_POLL))) | | return false; | | ................ | | } | SCHED | NPSVC | | clear_bit(NPSVC, &n->state); | | SCHED } | | | | napi_schedule_prep() | | SCHED | MISSED (2) (1) Here return direct. Because of NAPI_STATE_NPSVC exists. (2) NAPI_STATE_SCHED exists. So not add napi.poll_list to sd->poll_list Since NAPI_STATE_SCHED already exists and napi is not in the sd->poll_list queue, NAPI_STATE_SCHED cannot be cleared and will always exist. 1. This will cause this queue to no longer receive packets. 2. If you encounter napi_disable under the protection of rtnl_lock, it will cause the entire rtnl_lock to be locked, affecting the overall system. This patch uses cmpxchg to implement napi_enable(), which ensures that there will be no race due to the separation of clear two bits.
