From 2b69bd1179162f69c0a90d5b09309498d362b3d7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Honnappa Nagarahalli Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2020 11:25:37 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ethdev: fix memory ordering for callback functions Call back functions are registered on the control plane. They are accessed from the data plane. Hence, correct memory orderings should be used to avoid race conditions. Fixes: 4dc294158cac ("ethdev: support optional Rx and Tx callbacks") Fixes: c8231c63ddcb ("ethdev: insert Rx callback as head of list") Cc: stable@dpdk.org Signed-off-by: Honnappa Nagarahalli Reviewed-by: Ola Liljedahl Reviewed-by: Phil Yang Acked-by: Konstantin Ananyev --- lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.c | 28 ++++++++++++++++++----- lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.h | 42 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 2 files changed, 55 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.c b/lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.c index 2198548663..7eaeccc19d 100644 --- a/lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.c +++ b/lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.c @@ -4610,12 +4610,20 @@ rte_eth_add_rx_callback(uint16_t port_id, uint16_t queue_id, rte_eth_devices[port_id].post_rx_burst_cbs[queue_id]; if (!tail) { - rte_eth_devices[port_id].post_rx_burst_cbs[queue_id] = cb; + /* Stores to cb->fn and cb->param should complete before + * cb is visible to data plane. + */ + __atomic_store_n( + &rte_eth_devices[port_id].post_rx_burst_cbs[queue_id], + cb, __ATOMIC_RELEASE); } else { while (tail->next) tail = tail->next; - tail->next = cb; + /* Stores to cb->fn and cb->param should complete before + * cb is visible to data plane. + */ + __atomic_store_n(&tail->next, cb, __ATOMIC_RELEASE); } rte_spinlock_unlock(&rte_eth_rx_cb_lock); @@ -4700,12 +4708,20 @@ rte_eth_add_tx_callback(uint16_t port_id, uint16_t queue_id, rte_eth_devices[port_id].pre_tx_burst_cbs[queue_id]; if (!tail) { - rte_eth_devices[port_id].pre_tx_burst_cbs[queue_id] = cb; + /* Stores to cb->fn and cb->param should complete before + * cb is visible to data plane. + */ + __atomic_store_n( + &rte_eth_devices[port_id].pre_tx_burst_cbs[queue_id], + cb, __ATOMIC_RELEASE); } else { while (tail->next) tail = tail->next; - tail->next = cb; + /* Stores to cb->fn and cb->param should complete before + * cb is visible to data plane. + */ + __atomic_store_n(&tail->next, cb, __ATOMIC_RELEASE); } rte_spinlock_unlock(&rte_eth_tx_cb_lock); @@ -4736,7 +4752,7 @@ rte_eth_remove_rx_callback(uint16_t port_id, uint16_t queue_id, cb = *prev_cb; if (cb == user_cb) { /* Remove the user cb from the callback list. */ - *prev_cb = cb->next; + __atomic_store_n(prev_cb, cb->next, __ATOMIC_RELAXED); ret = 0; break; } @@ -4770,7 +4786,7 @@ rte_eth_remove_tx_callback(uint16_t port_id, uint16_t queue_id, cb = *prev_cb; if (cb == user_cb) { /* Remove the user cb from the callback list. */ - *prev_cb = cb->next; + __atomic_store_n(prev_cb, cb->next, __ATOMIC_RELAXED); ret = 0; break; } diff --git a/lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.h b/lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.h index f07dbc4d26..c37b3a1a81 100644 --- a/lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.h +++ b/lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.h @@ -3911,7 +3911,8 @@ struct rte_eth_rxtx_callback; * The callback function * @param user_param * A generic pointer parameter which will be passed to each invocation of the - * callback function on this port and queue. + * callback function on this port and queue.
