In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/xe/guc_submit: fix race around suspend_pending

Currently in some testcases we can trigger:

xe 0000:03:00.0: [drm] Assertion `exec_queue_destroyed(q)` failed!

....

WARNING: CPU: 18 PID: 2640 at drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_guc_submit.c:1826 xe_guc_sched_done_handler+0xa54/0xef0 [xe]

xe 0000:03:00.0: [drm] *ERROR* GT1: DEREGISTER_DONE: Unexpected engine state 0x00a1, guc_id=57

Looking at a snippet of corresponding ftrace for this GuC id we can see:

162.673311: xe_sched_msg_add: dev=0000:03:00.0, gt=1 guc_id=57, opcode=3

162.673317: xe_sched_msg_recv: dev=0000:03:00.0, gt=1 guc_id=57, opcode=3

162.673319: xe_exec_queue_scheduling_disable: dev=0000:03:00.0, 1:0x2, gt=1, width=1, guc_id=57, guc_state=0x29, flags=0x0

162.674089: xe_exec_queue_kill: dev=0000:03:00.0, 1:0x2, gt=1, width=1, guc_id=57, guc_state=0x29, flags=0x0

162.674108: xe_exec_queue_close: dev=0000:03:00.0, 1:0x2, gt=1, width=1, guc_id=57, guc_state=0xa9, flags=0x0

162.674488: xe_exec_queue_scheduling_done: dev=0000:03:00.0, 1:0x2, gt=1, width=1, guc_id=57, guc_state=0xa9, flags=0x0

162.678452: xe_exec_queue_deregister: dev=0000:03:00.0, 1:0x2, gt=1, width=1, guc_id=57, guc_state=0xa1, flags=0x0

It looks like we try to suspend the queue (opcode=3), setting

suspend_pending and triggering a disable_scheduling. The user then

closes the queue. However the close will also forcefully signal the

suspend fence after killing the queue, later when the G2H response for

disable_scheduling comes back we have now cleared suspend_pending when

signalling the suspend fence, so the disable_scheduling now incorrectly

tries to also deregister the queue. This leads to warnings since the queue

has yet to even be marked for destruction. We also seem to trigger

errors later with trying to double unregister the same queue.

To fix this tweak the ordering when handling the response to ensure we

don't race with a disable_scheduling that didn't actually intend to

perform an unregister. The destruction path should now also correctly

wait for any pending_disable before marking as destroyed.
