[PATCH RFC 00/17] Solve iommu probe races around iommu_fwspec

[Jason Gunthorpe]

This is a more complete solution that the first attempt here:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/1698825902-10685-1-git-send-email-quic_zhenhuah@quicinc.com

I haven't been able to test this on any HW that touches these paths, so if
some people with HW can help get it in shape it can become non-RFC.


The iommu subsystem uses dev->iommu to store bits of information about the
attached iommu driver. This has been co-opted by the ACPI/OF code to also
be a place to pass around the iommu_fwspec before a driver is probed.

Since both are using the same pointers without any locking it triggers
races if there is concurrent driver loading:

     CPU0                                     CPU1
of_iommu_configure()                iommu_device_register()
 ..                                   bus_iommu_probe()
  iommu_fwspec_of_xlate()              __iommu_probe_device()
                                        iommu_init_device()
   dev_iommu_get()
                                          .. ops->probe fails, no fwspec ..
                                          dev_iommu_free()
   dev->iommu->fwspec    *crash*

My first attempt get correct locking here was to use the device_lock to
protect the entire *_iommu_configure() and iommu_probe() paths. This
allowed safe use of dev->iommu within those paths. Unfortuately enough
drivers abuse the of_iommu_configure() flow without proper locking and
this approach failed.

This approach removes touches of dev->iommu from the *_iommu_configure()
code. The few remaining required touches are moved into iommu.c and
protected with the existing iommu_probe_device_lock.

To do this we change *_iommu_configure() to hold the iommu_fwspec on the
stack while it is being built. Once it is fully formed the core code will
install it into the dev->iommu when it calls probe.

This also removes all the touches of iommu_ops from
the *_iommu_configure() paths and makes that mechanism private to the
iommu core.

A few more lockdep assertions are added to discourage future mis-use.
