The atomicity violation occurs due to concurrent execution of set_min and set_max funcs which may lead to inconsistent reads and writes of the min value and the max value. The checks for value validity are ineffective as the min/max values could change immediately after being checked, raising the risk of the min value being greater than the max value and causing invalid settings.
This possible bug is found by an experimental static analysis tool developed by our team, BassCheck[1]. This tool analyzes the locking APIs to extract function pairs that can be concurrently executed, and then analyzes the instructions in the paired functions to identify possible concurrency bugs including data races and atomicity violations. The above possible bug is reported when our tool analyzes the source code of Linux 5.17.
To resolve this issue, it is suggested to encompass the validity checks within the locked sections in both set_min and set_max funcs. The modification ensures that the validation of 'val' against the current min/max values is atomic, thus maintaining the integrity of the settings. With this patch applied, our tool no longer reports the bug, with the kernel configuration allyesconfig for x86_64. Due to the lack of associated hardware, we cannot test the patch in runtime testing, and just verify it according to the code logic.
