In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Flush dev-IOTLB only when PCIe device is accessible in scalable mode
Commit 4fc82cd907ac ("iommu/vt-d: Don't issue ATS Invalidation
request when device is disconnected") relies on
pci_dev_is_disconnected() to skip ATS invalidation for
safely-removed devices, but it does not cover link-down caused
by faults, which can still hard-lock the system.
For example, if a VM fails to connect to the PCIe device,
"virsh destroy" is executed to release resources and isolate
the fault, but a hard-lockup occurs while releasing the group fd.
Call Trace:
qi_submit_sync
qi_flush_dev_iotlb
intel_pasid_tear_down_entry
device_block_translation
blocking_domain_attach_dev
__iommu_attach_device
__iommu_device_set_domain
__iommu_group_set_domain_internal
iommu_detach_group
vfio_iommu_type1_detach_group
vfio_group_detach_container
vfio_group_fops_release
__fput
Although pci_device_is_present() is slower than
pci_dev_is_disconnected(), it still takes only ~70 µs on a
ConnectX-5 (8 GT/s, x2) and becomes even faster as PCIe speed
and width increase.
Besides, devtlb_invalidation_with_pasid() is called only in the
paths below, which are far less frequent than memory map/unmap.
1. mm-struct release
2. {attach,release}_dev
3. set/remove PASID
4. dirty-tracking setup
The gain in system stability far outweighs the negligible cost
of using pci_device_is_present() instead of pci_dev_is_disconnected()
to decide when to skip ATS invalidation, especially under GDR
high-load conditions.
