Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iavf: Fix hang during reboot/shutdown

Recent commit 974578017fc1 ("iavf: Add waiting so the port is initialized in remove") adds a wait-loop at the beginning of iavf_remove() to ensure that port initialization is finished prior unregistering net device. This causes a regression in reboot/shutdown scenario because in this case callback iavf_shutdown() is called and this callback detaches the device, makes it down if it is running and sets its state to __IAVF_REMOVE. Later shutdown callback of associated PF driver (e.g. ice_shutdown) is called. That callback calls among other things sriov_disable() that calls indirectly iavf_remove() (see stack trace below). As the adapter state is already __IAVF_REMOVE then the mentioned loop is end-less and shutdown process hangs.

The patch fixes this by checking adapter's state at the beginning of iavf_remove() and skips the rest of the function if the adapter is already in remove state (shutdown is in progress).

Reproducer: 1. Create VF on PF driven by ice or i40e driver 2. Ensure that the VF is bound to iavf driver 3. Reboot

That callback calls among other things sriov_disable()\nthat calls indirectly iavf_remove() (see stack trace below).\nAs the adapter state is already __IAVF_REMOVE then the mentioned\nloop is end-less and shutdown process hangs.\n\nThe patch fixes this by checking adapter\u0027s state at the beginning\nof iavf_remove() and skips the rest of the function if the adapter\nis already in remove state (shutdown is in progress).\n\nReproducer:\n1. Create VF on PF driven by ice or i40e driver\n2. Ensure that the VF is bound to iavf driver\n3. Reboot\n\n[52625.981294] sysrq: SysRq : Show Blocked State\n[52625.988377] task:reboot          state:D stack:    0 pid:17359 ppid:     1 f2\n[52625.996732] Call Trace:\n[52625.999187]  __schedule+0x2d1/0x830\n[52626.007400]  schedule+0x35/0xa0\n[52626.010545]  schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock+0x83/0x100\n[52626.020046]  usleep_range+0x5b/0x80\n[52626.023540]  iavf_remove+0x63/0x5b0 [iavf]\n[52626.027645]  pci_device_remove+0x3b/0xc0\n[52626.031572]  device_release_driver_internal+0x103/0x1f0\n[52626.036805]  pci_stop_bus_device+0x72/0xa0\n[52626.040904]  pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device+0xe/0x20\n[52626.045870]  pci_iov_remove_virtfn+0xba/0x120\n[52626.050232]  sriov_disable+0x2f/0xe0\n[52626.053813]  ice_free_vfs+0x7c/0x340 [ice]\n[52626.057946]  ice_remove+0x220/0x240 [ice]\n[52626.061967]  ice_shutdown+0x16/0x50 [ice]\n[52626.065987]  pci_device_shutdown+0x34/0x60\n[52626.070086]  device_shutdown+0x165/0x1c5\n[52626.074011]  kernel_restart+0xe/0x30\n[52626.077593]  __do_sys_reboot+0x1d2/0x210\n[52626.093815]  do_syscall_64+0x5b/0x1a0\n[52626.097483]  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x65/0xca"

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
