From: Qi Xi Date: Tue, 9 Sep 2025 11:29:10 +0000 (+0800) Subject: once: fix race by moving DO_ONCE to separate section X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=edcc8a38b5ac1a3dbd05e113a38a25b937ebefe5;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git once: fix race by moving DO_ONCE to separate section The commit c2c60ea37e5b ("once: use __section(".data.once")") moved DO_ONCE's ___done variable to .data.once section, which conflicts with DO_ONCE_LITE() that also uses the same section. This creates a race condition when clear_warn_once is used: Thread 1 (DO_ONCE) Thread 2 (DO_ONCE) __do_once_start read ___done (false) acquire once_lock execute func __do_once_done write ___done (true) __do_once_start release once_lock // Thread 3 clear_warn_once reset ___done read ___done (false) acquire once_lock execute func schedule once_work __do_once_done once_deferred: OK write ___done (true) static_branch_disable release once_lock schedule once_work once_deferred: BUG_ON(!static_key_enabled) DO_ONCE_LITE() in once_lite.h is used by WARN_ON_ONCE() and other warning macros. Keep its ___done flag in the .data..once section and allow resetting by clear_warn_once, as originally intended. In contrast, DO_ONCE() is used for functions like get_random_once() and relies on its ___done flag for internal synchronization. We should not reset DO_ONCE() by clear_warn_once. Fix it by isolating DO_ONCE's ___done into a separate .data..do_once section, shielding it from clear_warn_once.
