[PATCH v2 3/3] irqchip/gic-v3: Don't register a redistributor that was never counted

From: Fuad Tabba <fuad.tabba@linux.dev>
Date: 2026-09-25 08:50:36
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: arm generic interrupt controller drivers, irqchip drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Marc Zyngier, Thomas Gleixner, Linus Torvalds

gic_acpi_match_gicc() counts only the enabled GICCs with a non-zero
gicr_base_address, and that count sizes redist_regs[], but
gic_acpi_parse_madt_gicc() registers every enabled one. On a MADT with
no GICR entries, an enabled GICC with a zero GICR base therefore makes
gic_acpi_register_redist() write a struct redist_region past the end of
the array.

Commit fa2dabe57220e ("irqchip/gic-v3: Don't return errors from
gic_acpi_match_gicc()") removed the check that kept the two consistent.
Its message says such entries are still caught by gic_populate_rdist(),
but that runs from gic_cpu_init(), after the write.

Skip the entry instead, and mark the CPU's redistributor broken as the
online-capable path does, so that gic_check_rdist() rejects the CPU.
gic_starting_cpu() runs past cpuhp's last failure point, so without the
mark the CPU would come online with its redistributor and CPU interface
unconfigured. With an ITS, its_cpu_init() would then dereference a NULL
rd_base.
