Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] cxl/edac: Read cached DRAM event records under the xarray lock
Date: Mon, 02 Nov 2026 21:32:34 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261102123233.74598-2-ai@linux.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261102123233.74598-1-ai@linux.com>
The event path caches DRAM event records in an xarray and frees a record
when xa_store() replaces it, when it expires and when the cache
overflows. It runs with device_lock() and cxl_rwsem held for read.
The repair path looks records up with cxl_find_rec_dram() while holding
only cxl_rwsem for read, so the two paths can run at the same time.
cxl_find_rec_dram() reads the record after xa_load() returns, and
cxl_mem_perform_sparing() reads validity_flags from the returned record
again later. Both reads can hit a record the event path has just freed.
Move the lookup into __cxl_find_rec_dram(), called with the xarray lock
held, and make cxl_find_rec_dram() return whether a record matched and
copy the matching record into a buffer the caller passes in. The PPR
path only needs the match and passes NULL. No caller keeps a pointer to
the record after the lock is dropped. The event path frees a record
only after xa_store() or xa_erase() has removed it from the xarray, and
both take the same lock.
Fixes: 0b5ccb0de1e2 ("cxl/edac: Support for finding memory operation attributes from the current boot")
Fixes: 588ca944c277 ("cxl/edac: Add CXL memory device memory sparing control feature")
Reported-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/r/sashiko-outbox-192042@kernel.org
