In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ibmvfc: Allocate/free queue resource only during probe/remove Currently, the sub-queues and event pool resources are allocated/freed for every CRQ connection event such as reset and LPM. This exposes the driver to a couple issues. First the inefficiency of freeing and reallocating memory that can simply be resued after being sanitized. Further, a system under memory pressue runs the risk of allocation failures that could result in a crippled driver. Finally, there is a race window where command submission/compeletion can try to pull/return elements from/to an event pool that is being deleted or already has been deleted due to the lack of host state around freeing/allocating resources. The following is an example of list corruption following a live partition migration (LPM): Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1] LE PAGE_SIZE=64K MMU=Hash SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries Modules linked in: vfat fat isofs cdrom ext4 mbcache jbd2 nft_counter nft_compat nf_tables nfnetlink rpadlpar_io rpaphp xsk_diag nfsv3 nfs_acl nfs lockd grace fscache netfs rfkill bonding tls sunrpc pseries_rng drm drm_panel_orientation_quirks xfs libcrc32c dm_service_time sd_mod t10_pi sg ibmvfc scsi_transport_fc ibmveth vmx_crypto dm_multipath dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod ipmi_devintf ipmi_msghandler fuse CPU: 0 PID: 2108 Comm: ibmvfc_0 Kdump: loaded Not tainted 5.14.0-70.9.1.el9_0.ppc64le #1 NIP: c0000000007c4bb0 LR: c0000000007c4bac CTR: 00000000005b9a10 REGS: c00000025c10b760 TRAP: 0700 Not tainted (5.14.0-70.9.1.el9_0.ppc64le) MSR: 800000000282b033 CR: 2800028f XER: 0000000f CFAR: c0000000001f55bc IRQMASK: 0 GPR00: c0000000007c4bac c00000025c10ba00 c000000002a47c00 000000000000004e GPR04: c0000031e3006f88 c0000031e308bd00 c00000025c10b768 0000000000000027 GPR08: 0000000000000000 c0000031e3009dc0 00000031e0eb0000 0000000000000000 GPR12: c0000031e2ffffa8 c000000002dd0000 c000000000187108 c00000020fcee2c0 GPR1
