During\nallocation the XIVE code creates a struct xive_irq_data and stores it\nin irq_data->chip_data.\n\nWhen the MSI-X irqdomain is later freed, xive_irq_free_data() is\nresponsible for retrieving this structure and freeing it. However,\nafter commit cc0cc23babc9 (\"powerpc/xive: Untangle xive from child\ninterrupt controller drivers\"), xive_irq_free_data() retrieves the\nchip_data using irq_get_chip_data(), which looks up the data through\nthe child domain.\n\nThis is incorrect because the XIVE-specific irq data is associated with\nthe XIVE (parent) domain. As a result the lookup fails and the allocated\nstruct xive_irq_data is never freed, leading to the kmemleak report\nshown above.\n\nFix this by retrieving the irq_data from the correct domain using\nirq_domain_get_irq_data() and then accessing the chip_data via\nirq_data_get_irq_chip_data()." } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "arch/powerpc/sysdev/xive/common.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "cc0cc23babc979e399f34f53e4bccf702a389558", "lessThan": "2546fb8c9acc8c7512ed4339ce2a982cb7407065", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "cc0cc23babc979e399f34f53e4bccf702a389558", "lessThan": "e66ed135cdf23a318e9727dca48f98f7f6142f78", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "cc0cc23babc979e399f34f53e4bccf702a389558", "lessThan": "6771c54728c278bf1e4bfdab4fddbbb186e33498", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "arch/powerpc/sysdev/xive/common.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.18", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.18", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.30", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.0.7", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.0.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.18", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.30" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.18", "versionEndExcluding": "7.0.7" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.18", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2546fb8c9acc8c7512ed4339ce2a982cb7407065" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e66ed135cdf23a318e9727dca48f98f7f6142f78" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6771c54728c278bf1e4bfdab4fddbbb186e33498" } ], "title": "powerpc/xive: fix kmemleak caused by incorrect chip_data lookup", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
