For interrupts sent in +directed delivery mode with a multiple CPU mask, the emulated openpic will loop +through all of the VCPUs, and for each VCPUs, it call IRQ_check, which will loop +through all the pending interrupts for that VCPU. This is done while holding the +raw_lock, meaning that in all this time the interrupts and preemption are +disabled on the host Linux. A malicious user app can max both these number and +cause a DoS. + +This temporary fix is sent for two reasons. First is so that users who want to +use the in-kernel MPIC emulation are aware of the potential latencies, thus +making sure that the hardware MPIC and their usage scenario does not involve +interrupts sent in directed delivery mode, and the number of possible pending +interrupts is kept small. Secondly, this should incentivize the development of a +proper openpic emulation that would be better suited for RT. + +Acked-by: Scott Wood +Signed-off-by: Bogdan Purcareata +Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior +Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner +--- + arch/powerpc/kvm/Kconfig | 1 + + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) + +diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kvm/Kconfig b/arch/powerpc/kvm/Kconfig +index a9f57dad6d91..a0b528d4bb7c 100644 +--- a/arch/powerpc/kvm/Kconfig ++++ b/arch/powerpc/kvm/Kconfig +@@ -225,6 +225,7 @@ config KVM_E500MC + config KVM_MPIC + bool "KVM in-kernel MPIC emulation" + depends on KVM && PPC_E500 ++ depends on !PREEMPT_RT + select HAVE_KVM_IRQCHIP + select HAVE_KVM_IRQFD + select HAVE_KVM_IRQ_ROUTING +-- +2.43.0 + -- cgit v1.2.3
