Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
drm/xe/userptr: Hold notifier_lock for write on inject test path<br />
<br />
When CONFIG_DRM_XE_USERPTR_INVAL_INJECT=y, xe_pt_svm_userptr_pre_commit()<br />
runs vma_check_userptr() with the svm notifier_lock taken for read. The<br />
test injection causes vma_check_userptr() to call<br />
xe_vma_userptr_force_invalidate(), which feeds into<br />
xe_vma_userptr_do_inval() with drm_gpusvm_ctx.in_notifier=true. That<br />
flag tells drm_gpusvm_unmap_pages() the caller already holds<br />
notifier_lock for write and only asserts the mode. Because the caller<br />
actually holds it for read, the assertion fires:<br />
<br />

<br />
Acquire notifier_lock for write in pre-commit when the inject Kconfig<br />
is enabled, via new helpers xe_pt_svm_userptr_notifier_lock()/_unlock().<br />
Rename xe_svm_assert_held_read() to<br />
xe_svm_assert_held_read_or_inject_write() so it asserts the correct<br />
mode under each build configuration. Production builds<br />
(CONFIG_DRM_XE_USERPTR_INVAL_INJECT=n) keep the existing read-mode<br />
behavior bit-for-bit.<br />
<br />
