Subject: [PATCH v2] arm64: kexec: Check if IRQ is already masked before masking

From: Eliav Farber <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2024 15:22:36 +0000

During machine kexec, the function machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() is
responsible for disabling or masking all interrupts. While the
irq_disable hook ensures that an already-disabled IRQ is not disabled
again, the current implementation unconditionally invokes the irq_mask()
function for every interrupt descriptor, even when the interrupt is
already masked.

A specific issue was observed in the crash kernel flow after unbinding a
device (prior to kexec) that used a GPIO as an IRQ source. The warning
was triggered by the gpiochip_disable_irq() function, which attempted to
clear the FLAG_IRQ_IS_ENABLED flag when FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ was not set:

```
void gpiochip_disable_irq(struct gpio_chip *gc, unsigned int offset)
{
	struct gpio_desc *desc = gpiochip_get_desc(gc, offset);

	if (!IS_ERR(desc) &&
	    !WARN_ON(!test_bit(FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ, &desc->flags)))
		clear_bit(FLAG_IRQ_IS_ENABLED, &desc->flags);
}
```

The issue emerged after commit a8173820f441 ("gpio: gpiolib: Allow GPIO
IRQs to lazy disable"), which introduced lazy disablement for GPIO IRQs
by replacing disable/enable hooks with mask/unmask hooks in some cases.
While irq_disable guarded against redundant operations, the unguarded
irq_mask in machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() led to warnings when invoked
on already-masked IRQs.

When a GPIO-IRQ-using driver is unbound, the IRQ is released, invoking
__irq_disable() and irq_state_set_masked(). A subsequent call to
machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() reinvoked chip->irq_mask(), leading to a
call chain that included gpiochip_irq_mask() and gpiochip_disable_irq().
Because FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ was cleared earlier, a warning was printed.

This patch replaces the direct invocation of the irq_mask() and
irq_disable() hooks with simplified code that leverages the
irq_disable() kernel infrastructure. This higher-level function checks
the interrupt's state to prevent redundant operations. Additionally, the
IRQ_DISABLE_UNLAZY status flag is set to ensure that, for interrupt
chips lacking an irq_disable callback, the disable operation is handled
using the lazy approach.

As part of this change, the irq_disable() declaration was moved from
kernel/irq/internals.h to include/linux/irq.h to make it accessible
outside the kernel/irq/ directory, as the former can only be included
within that directory.

V1 -> V2:
- Implement an alternative solution by utilizing the kernel's
  irq_disable() infrastructure.
- Apply the fix to additional architectures, including ARM, PowerPC,
  and RISC-V.
