However,\nxe_vm_pt_destroy() was previously invoked before processing contested\nVMAs, destroying vm->pt_root while those VMAs were still linked to their\nrespective buffer objects (vm_bo->list.gpuva).\n\nIf a concurrent thread evicts one of those shared buffer objects,\nxe_bo_trigger_rebind() holding only bo->resv walks the BO's VMAs and, in\nfault mode, calls xe_vm_invalidate_vma() -> xe_pt_zap_ptes(). Because\nvm->pt_root[tile->id] is already NULL, dereferencing pt->level causes a\nNULL ptr deref.\n\nFix this by deferring xe_vm_free_scratch() and xe_vm_pt_destroy() until\nafter all contested VMAs have been unlinked and destroyed.\n\nUser is reporting hitting a NULL ptr deref in xe_pt_zap_ptes(), which\ncould be explained by this race.\n\n(cherry picked from commit c2863648959489767f08892fd6e90577d2ea0b6a)"}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_vm.c"],"versions":[{"version":"b06d47be7c83165d3b3e45e1d5f9520b79c7f5cc","lessThan":"70fddc065ac80845ffd33095b3635d59883cf7e6","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"b06d47be7c83165d3b3e45e1d5f9520b79c7f5cc","lessThan":"ba678c2b02e0d36b53deb5a6d5e5ea044d36def7","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"b06d47be7c83165d3b3e45e1d5f9520b79c7f5cc","lessThan":"bddaa5e4094c134452c29e20a26c4718827e4cb1","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"b06d47be7c83165d3b3e45e1d5f9520b79c7f5cc","lessThan":"24a22fb3c731474b68e986af6804db450fb88617","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_vm.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.8","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.8","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.112","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.55","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.9","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3","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":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.112"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.55"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.9"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"7.3"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/70fddc065ac80845ffd33095b3635d59883cf7e6"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ba678c2b02e0d36b53deb5a6d5e5ea044d36def7"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bddaa5e4094c134452c29e20a26c4718827e4cb1"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/24a22fb3c731474b68e986af6804db450fb88617"}],"title":"drm/xe/vm: nuke PTs only after unlinking contested VMAs","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
