[PATCH v2 00/11] dmaengine: miscellaneous fixes for ioat, switchtec_dma and plx_dma

[Logan Gunthorpe]

When reviewing the recent switchtec patchset[1], the Sashiko bot noticed
a handful of pre-existing problems in the ioat and switchtec drivers.
I attempted to fix those plus an unrelated issue reported in plxdma but
when I submitted those patches, Sashiko found even more issues[2]. (It is
relentless!).

I've fixed the issues reported with v1 of this series and the ones for the
switchtec driver. But the pre-existing issues in ioat, plxdma and the
dmaengine itself I've punted until I can find some time to dig into them.

Hopefully, this is good enough for Sashiko this time and we can get
it reviewed by real humans.

The series is based off of v7.2-rc4.

Thanks,

Logan

[2] https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260717221001.361421-1-logang@deltatee.com

Changes since v1:

 * Added a fix for switchtec_dma_alloc_chan_resources()'s error path
   calling disable_channel() instead of properly halting the channel
   before freeing the descriptor rings. (Per Sashiko)
 * Added a fix for switchtec-dma channel structs being freed without
   being removed from dma_dev->channels on a registration failure,
   while the channel status IRQ is still live. (Per Sashiko)
 * Added a fix for switchtec_dma_remove() using swdma_dev after it may
   already have been freed by dma_async_device_unregister(). (Per
   Sashiko)
 * Added a fix for chan_status_irq being freed with the wrong API, and
   a valid vector index of 0 being incorrectly treated as unset.
   (Per Sashiko)
 * Made switchtec_dma_chans_release() void, since nothing checked its
   return value. (Noticed while reviewing the code for these changes).

[PATCH v2 01/11] dmaengine: switchtec-dma: fix double-free in switchtec_dma_free_desc()

[Logan Gunthorpe]

switchtec_dma_free_desc() frees swdma_chan->hw_sq, hw_cq, and every
desc_ring[] entry without clearing the pointers afterward. If
switchtec_dma_alloc_chan_resources() fails partway through and calls
it during unwind, then a later retry of alloc_chan_resources() fails
in switchtec_dma_alloc_desc() before reallocating one of those
pointers, its own failure path calls switchtec_dma_free_desc() again
and frees the same, already-freed pointers a second time.

NULL out each pointer as it's freed so a subsequent call is a no-op
for anything already released.

[PATCH v2 02/11] dmaengine: switchtec-dma: fix resource leak in alloc_chan_resources

[Logan Gunthorpe]

switchtec_dma_alloc_chan_resources() returns directly on any later
failure, without ever freeing the descriptor rings and coherent DMA
memory it just allocated. The dmaengine core does not call
device_free_chan_resources() when device_alloc_chan_resources() fails,
so the driver has to unwind its own partial state.

The device-removed check also runs after ring_active and
comp_ring_active have already been set true, so a failure there left
the channel marked active despite alloc_chan_resources() reporting
failure.

Add an error-unwind path that disables the channel and frees the
descriptor rings on every failure after allocation. ring_active and
comp_ring_active are cleared under the same locks
switchtec_dma_free_chan_resources() already uses, since the completion
tasklet checks comp_ring_active under complete_lock before touching
the completion ring, and a stale IRQ can still be in flight when this
unwind path runs.

[PATCH v2 03/11] dmaengine: switchtec-dma: halt channel on alloc_chan_resources error

[Logan Gunthorpe]

The error-unwind path called disable_channel() before freeing the
descriptor rings, but that only clears the enable bit with an
unflushed write -- it doesn't halt the channel or clear its DMA base
address registers. If unhalt_channel() timed out, the channel's actual
state is unknown at that point, so nothing guarantees the hardware
isn't still touching the rings when they're freed.

Call switchtec_dma_chan_stop() first, matching what
switchtec_dma_free_chan_resources() already does before freeing
descriptors on the normal teardown path: it synchronously halts the
channel and zeroes the DMA base registers.

[PATCH v2 04/11] dmaengine: switchtec-dma: fix channel leak on registration failure

[Logan Gunthorpe]

switchtec_dma_chans_release() is called in three places but the
underlying memory is not freed in all of those places. In order to
clean this up, introduce a switchtec_dma_chans_free() helper that
will free the memory.

Ensure each call to switchtec_dma_chans_release() has a corresponding
switchtec_dma_chans_free() call. (The release in switchtec_dma_remove()
pairs with the free in switchtec_dma_release()).

swdma_dev->chan_cnt is now set to the number of channels that succeeded
when one fails to initialise, so switchtec_dma_chans_free() can still
be used if not all channels succeed in being allocated.

[PATCH v2 06/11] dmaengine: switchtec-dma: unlink channels before freeing on registration failure

[Logan Gunthorpe]

When switchtec_dma_create() fails after channels have been added to
dma_dev->channels (either from switchtec_dma_chans_enumerate()'s own
error path, or from dma_async_device_register() failing), the channels
are released and freed but never removed from dma_dev->channels.

The channel status IRQ is already live at this point, and its handler
walks dma_dev->channels, so it can dereference a freed channel.

Add switchtec_dma_chans_unlist() and call it before releasing and
freeing channels in both error paths.

[Logan Gunthorpe]

chan_status_irq stores an MSI-X vector index, but err_exit freed it
with plain free_irq() instead of pci_free_irq(), which would free the
wrong Linux IRQ. The guard also treated a valid vector index of 0 as
unset, skipping the free entirely in that case and leaving the handler
registered against soon-to-be-freed swdma_dev.

Initialize chan_status_irq to -1 and use the value being non-negative
to signal when to free it with pci_free_irq().

[PATCH v2 09/11] dmaengine: ioat: disable relaxed ordering before registering the device

[Logan Gunthorpe]

ioat3_dma_probe() disabled PCIe relaxed ordering after calling
dma_async_device_register(), so if an error occurs and the code jumps
to err_disable_interrupts, the function returns with the device still
registered in the core's dma_device_list while the caller frees the
ioatdma_device struct, leaving a dangling registration that anything
walking the device list can dereference after it's been freed.

Move the capability read/write ahead of dma_async_device_register()
instead. Nothing after registration depends on relaxed ordering
already being disabled, and nothing before it depends on the device
being registered, so this is a plain reordering. It also means every
remaining step after registration can't fail, so there's no need to
ever have to unregister the device once registered.

[PATCH v2 10/11] dmaengine: ioat: use sysfs_emit() in per-channel sysfs show()

[Logan Gunthorpe]

Convert the sprintf() calls in the per-channel sysfs attribute show()
functions to sysfs_emit().

[PATCH v2 11/11] dmaengine: plx_dma: fix NULL pointer deref in plx_dma_isr()

[Logan Gunthorpe]

plx_dma_create() registered the interrupt handler with request_irq()
before initializing plxdev->bar. If the device raised an interrupt in
that window, plx_dma_isr() would dereference the still-NULL bar.

Move the bar assignment ahead of request_irq() so everything the
handler can touch is initialized before it can run.
