[ Upstream commit 2d57b4f142e0b03e854612b8e28978935414bced ]
Two race conditions can be triggered when storing xps rxqs, resulting in
various oops and invalid memory accesses:
1. Calling netdev_set_num_tc while netif_set_xps_queue:
- netif_set_xps_queue uses dev->tc_num as one of the parameters to
compute the size of new_dev_maps when allocating it. dev->tc_num is
also used to access the map, and the compiler may generate code to
retrieve this field multiple times in the function.
- netdev_set_num_tc sets dev->tc_num.
If new_dev_maps is allocated using dev->tc_num and then dev->tc_num
is set to a higher value through netdev_set_num_tc, later accesses to
new_dev_maps in netif_set_xps_queue could lead to accessing memory
outside of new_dev_maps; triggering an oops.
2. Calling netif_set_xps_queue while netdev_set_num_tc is running:
2.1. netdev_set_num_tc starts by resetting the xps queues,
dev->tc_num isn't updated yet.
2.2. netif_set_xps_queue is called, setting up the map with the
*old* dev->num_tc.
2.3. netdev_set_num_tc updates dev->tc_num.
2.4. Later accesses to the map lead to out of bound accesses and
oops.
A similar issue can be found with netdev_reset_tc.
One way of triggering this is to set an iface up (for which the driver
uses netdev_set_num_tc in the open path, such as bnx2x) and writing to
xps_rxqs in a concurrent thread. With the right timing an oops is
triggered.
Both issues have the same fix: netif_set_xps_queue, netdev_set_num_tc
and netdev_reset_tc should be mutually exclusive. We do that by taking
the rtnl lock in xps_rxqs_store.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
