read_dts_node() registers shared interrupt handlers via
devm_request_irq() with fman as the dev_id, passing it to fman_irq()
and fman_err_irq(). At registration time, fman is only partially
initialized -- kzalloc_obj() zero-initializes all fields, so
fman->cfg and fman->fpm_regs are NULL.
The handlers guard against incomplete initialization via:
if (!is_init_done(fman->cfg))
return IRQ_NONE;
However, is_init_done(NULL) returns true (intended to indicate that
fman_init() has completed and cfg has been freed). This means when
cfg is NULL before fman_config() allocates it, the guard does not
take effect:
is_init_done(NULL) -> returns true
!true -> false
guard skipped -> proceeds to dereference NULL fpm_regs
If another device on the same shared IRQ line fires during the window
between devm_request_irq() and fman_init(), the handler accesses
NULL fman->fpm_regs via ioread32be(), causing a crash. The window
includes of_platform_populate() which can be slow.
Add an irq_ready flag to struct fman that is set to true only after
fman_init() completes in fman_probe(). Check this flag at the start
of fman_irq() and fman_err_irq() before any register access.
Use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() for the flag accesses since it is a
cross-context shared variable written in process context and read
in interrupt context.
This issue was identified in code review during the discussion of a
separate IRQF_SHARED UAF fix patch:
