[ Upstream commit 63a759694eed61025713b3e14dd827c8548daadc ]
Statically initialized objects are usually not initialized via the init()
function of the subsystem. They are special cased and the subsystem
provides a function to validate whether an object which is not yet tracked
by debugobjects is statically initialized. This means the object is started
to be tracked on first use, e.g. activation.
This works perfectly fine, unless there are two concurrent operations on
that object. Schspa decoded the problem:
T0 T1
debug_object_assert_init(addr)
lock_hash_bucket()
obj = lookup_object(addr);
if (!obj) {
unlock_hash_bucket();
- > preemption
lock_subsytem_object(addr);
activate_object(addr)
lock_hash_bucket();
obj = lookup_object(addr);
if (!obj) {
unlock_hash_bucket();
if (is_static_object(addr))
init_and_track(addr);
lock_hash_bucket();
obj = lookup_object(addr);
obj->state = ACTIVATED;
unlock_hash_bucket();
subsys function modifies content of addr,
so static object detection does
not longer work.
unlock_subsytem_object(addr);
if (is_static_object(addr)) <- Fails
debugobject emits a warning and invokes the fixup function which
reinitializes the already active object in the worst case.
This race exists forever, but was never observed until mod_timer() got a
debug_object_assert_init() added which is outside of the timer base lock
held section right at the beginning of the function to cover the lockless
early exit points too.
Rework the code so that the lookup, the static object check and the
tracking object association happens atomically under the hash bucket
lock. This prevents the issue completely as all callers are serialized on
the hash bucket lock and therefore cannot observe inconsistent state.
