CVE-2025-68174CVE-2025-68174
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
amd/amdkfd: enhance kfd process check in switch partition
current switch partition only check if kfd_processes_table is empty.
kfd_prcesses_table entry is deleted in kfd_process_notifier_release, but
kfd_process tear down is in kfd_process_wq_release.
consider two processes:
Process A (workqueue) -> kfd_process_wq_release -> Access kfd_node member
Process B switch partition -> amdgpu_xcp_pre_partition_switch -> amdgpu_amdkfd_device_fini_sw
-> kfd_node tear down.
Process A and B may trigger a race as shown in dmesg log.
This patch is to resolve the race by adding an atomic kfd_process counter
kfd_processes_count, it increment as create kfd process, decrement as
finish kfd_process_wq_release.
v2: Put kfd_processes_count per kfd_dev, move decrement to kfd_process_destroy_pdds
and bug fix. (Philip Yang)
