[ Upstream commit f3cc22d4df3ed58439ea7e21daa54c3608e03b78 ]

Two error handling issues exist in xe_exec_queue_create_ioctl():

1. When xe_hw_engine_group_add_exec_queue() fails, the error path jumps
   to put_exec_queue which skips xe_exec_queue_kill(). If the VM is in
   preempt fence mode, xe_vm_add_compute_exec_queue() has already added
   the queue to the VM's compute exec queue list. Skipping the kill
   leaves the queue on that list, leading to a dangling pointer after
   the queue is freed.

2. When xa_alloc() fails after xe_hw_engine_group_add_exec_queue() has
   succeeded, the error path does not call
   xe_hw_engine_group_del_exec_queue() to remove the queue from the hw
   engine group list. The queue is then freed while still linked into
   the hw engine group, causing a use-after-free.

Fix both by:
- Changing the xe_hw_engine_group_add_exec_queue() failure path to jump
  to kill_exec_queue so that xe_exec_queue_kill() properly removes the
  queue from the VM's compute list.
- Adding a del_hw_engine_group label before kill_exec_queue for the
  xa_alloc() failure path, which removes the queue from the hw engine
  group before proceeding with the rest of the cleanup.

[ Upstream commit f8c4151d50b12923b67819ebf03c1c6782c984c1 ]

xe_exec_queue_tlb_inval_last_fence_put_unlocked() uses q-&gt;vm-&gt;xe as the
first argument to xe_assert(). This function is called unconditionally
from xe_exec_queue_destroy() for all queues, including kernel queues
that have q-&gt;vm == NULL (e.g., queues created during GT init in
xe_gt_record_default_lrcs() with vm=NULL).

While current compilers optimize away the q-&gt;vm-&gt;xe dereference (even
in CONFIG_DRM_XE_DEBUG=y builds, the compiler pushes the dereference
into the WARN branch that is only taken when the assert condition is
false), the code is semantically incorrect and constitutes undefined
behavior in the C abstract machine for the NULL pointer case.

Use gt_to_xe(q-&gt;gt) instead, which is always valid for any exec queue.
This is consistent with how xe_exec_queue_destroy() itself obtains the
xe_device pointer in its own xe_assert at the top of the function.

<title>drm/xe/queue: Call fini on exec queue creation fail</title>

<id>99f9b5343cae80eb0dfe050baf6c86d722b3ba2e</id>
<content type='text'>
Every call to queue init should have a corresponding fini call.
Skipping this would mean skipping removal of the queue from GuC list
(which is part of guc_id allocation). A damaged queue stored in
exec_queue_lookup list would lead to invalid memory reference,
sooner or later.

Call fini to free guc_id. This must be done before any internal
LRCs are freed.

Since the finalization with this extra call became very similar to
__xe_exec_queue_fini(), reuse that. To make this reuse possible,
alter xe_lrc_put() so it can survive NULL parameters, like other
similar functions.

v2: Reuse _xe_exec_queue_fini(). Make xe_lrc_put() aware of NULLs.

<title>Convert 'alloc_flex' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.

As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

<title>drm/xe/uapi: disallow bind queue sharing</title>

<id>6f4b7aed61817624250e590ba0ef304146d34614</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently this is very broken if someone attempts to create a bind
queue and share it across multiple VMs. For example currently we assume
it is safe to acquire the user VM lock to protect some of the bind queue
state, but if allow sharing the bind queue with multiple VMs then this
quickly breaks down.

To fix this reject using a bind queue with any VM that is not the same
VM that was originally passed when creating the bind queue. This a uAPI
change, however this was more of an oversight on kernel side that we
didn't reject this, and expectation is that userspace shouldn't be using
bind queues in this way, so in theory this change should go unnoticed.

Based on a patch from Matt Brost.

v2 (Matt B):
  - Hold the vm lock over queue create, to ensure it can't be closed as
    we attach the user_vm to the queue.
  - Make sure we actually check for NULL user_vm in destruction path.
v3:
  - Fix error path handling.

clangd reports many "unused header" warnings throughout the Xe driver.
Start working to clean this up by removing unnecessary includes in our
.c files and/or replacing them with explicit includes of other headers
that were previously being included indirectly.

By far the most common offender here was unnecessary inclusion of
xe_gt.h.  That likely originates from the early days of xe.ko when
xe_mmio did not exist and all register accesses, including those
unrelated to GTs, were done with GT functions.

There's still a lot of additional #include cleanup that can be done in
the headers themselves; that will come as a followup series.

v2:
 - Squash the 79-patch series down to a single patch.  (MattB)
