commit764478f411upstream. Fix two long-standing bugs which could potentially lead to memory corruption or leave the port throttled until it is reopened (on weakly ordered systems), respectively, when read-URB completion races with unthrottle(). First, the URB must not be marked as free before processing is complete to prevent it from being submitted by unthrottle() on another CPU. CPU 1 CPU 2 ================ ================ complete() unthrottle() process_urb(); smp_mb__before_atomic(); set_bit(i, free); if (test_and_clear_bit(i, free)) submit_urb(); Second, the URB must be marked as free before checking the throttled flag to prevent unthrottle() on another CPU from failing to observe that the URB needs to be submitted if complete() sees that the throttled flag is set. CPU 1 CPU 2 ================ ================ complete() unthrottle() set_bit(i, free); throttled = 0; smp_mb__after_atomic(); smp_mb(); if (throttled) if (test_and_clear_bit(i, free)) return; submit_urb(); Note that test_and_clear_bit() only implies barriers when the test is successful. To handle the case where the URB is still in use an explicit barrier needs to be added to unthrottle() for the second race condition. Also note that the first race was fixed by36e59e0d70("cdc-acm: fix race between callback and unthrottle") back in 2015, but the bug was reintroduced a year later.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
