RDMA/mlx5: Prevent prefetch from racing with implicit destruction
Prefetch work in mlx5_ib_prefetch_mr_work can be queued and able to run concurrently with destruction of the implicit MR. The num_deferred_work was intended to serialize this, but there is a race: CPU0 CPU1 mlx5_ib_free_implicit_mr() xa_erase(odp_mkeys) synchronize_srcu() __xa_erase(implicit_children) mlx5_ib_prefetch_mr_work() pagefault_mr() pagefault_implicit_mr() implicit_get_child_mr() xa_cmpxchg() atomic_dec_and_test(num_deferred_mr) wait_event(imr->q_deferred_work) ib_umem_odp_release(odp_imr) kfree(odp_imr) At this point in mlx5_ib_free_implicit_mr() the implicit_children list is supposed to be empty forever so that destroy_unused_implicit_child_mr() and related are not and will not be running. Since it is not empty the destroy_unused_implicit_child_mr() flow ends up touching deallocated memory as mlx5_ib_free_implicit_mr() already tore down the imr parent. The solution is to flush out the prefetch wq by driving num_deferred_work to zero after creation of new prefetch work is blocked.
