Hi, When fuzzing arm64 with Syzkaller, I'm seeing some splats where this_cpu_ptr() is used in the bowels of idr_alloc(), by way of radix_tree_node_alloc(), in a preemptible context:
| BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: syz-executor.1/32582 | caller is debug_smp_processor_id+0x24/0x30 | CPU: 3 PID: 32582 Comm: syz-executor.1 Not tainted 5.11.0-rc4-next-20210125-00001-gf57e7edf910d #3 | Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) | Call trace: | dump_backtrace+0x0/0x4a8 | show_stack+0x34/0x88 | dump_stack+0x1d4/0x2a0 | check_preemption_disabled+0x1b8/0x210 | debug_smp_processor_id+0x24/0x30 | radix_tree_node_alloc.constprop.17+0x26c/0x3d0 | radix_tree_extend+0x200/0x420 | idr_get_free+0x63c/0xa38 | idr_alloc_u32+0x164/0x2a0 | __qrtr_bind.isra.8+0x350/0x658 | qrtr_bind+0x18c/0x218 | __sys_bind+0x1fc/0x238 | __arm64_sys_bind+0x78/0xb0 | el0_svc_common+0x1ac/0x4c8 | do_el0_svc+0xfc/0x150 | el0_svc+0x24/0x38 | el0_sync_handler+0x134/0x180 | el0_sync+0x154/0x180 It's not clear to me whether this is a bug in the caller or a bug the implementation of idr_alloc(). The kerneldoc for idr_alloc() mentions that callers must provide their own locking (and in this case a mutex is used), but doesn't mention that preemption must be disabled. Is this an intentional requirement that's simply missing from the documentation and requires a change to the QRTR code, or is this something to fix within the bowels of idr_alloc() and its callees? Thanks, Mark.
