This\ncreates a window where the hardware can fetch a torn entry, with some\nfields already zeroed while Present is still set, leading to unpredictable\nbehavior or spurious faults. The context-cache invalidation is issued only\nafter the entry has been zeroed, and intel_pasid_free_table() then frees\nthe PASID directory pages, so the IOMMU can keep walking a stale Present=1\nentry that points at freed memory.\nWhile x86 provides strong write ordering, the compiler may reorder the two\n64-bit writes to the entry, and the hardware fetch is not guaranteed to be\natomic with respect to multiple CPU writes.\nCommit c1e4f1dccbe9d (\"iommu/vt-d: Clear Present bit before tearing down\ncontext entry\") fixed this exact pattern in domain_context_clear_one() and\nthe copied-context path, but device_pasid_table_teardown() was not\nconverted.\nAlign it with the \"Guidance to Software for Invalidations\" in the VT-d\nspec, Section 6.5.3.3, using the same ownership handshake as the sibling\nfix: clear only the Present bit, flush it to the IOMMU, perform the\ncontext-cache invalidation, and only then zero the rest of the entry.", "A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Input/Output Memory Management Unit (IOMMU) subsystem. The `device_pasid_table_teardown()` function incorrectly clears a scalable-mode context entry while its 'Present' bit remains set. This creates a window where the hardware can access a partially cleared entry, potentially leading to unpredictable system behavior, spurious faults, or the IOMMU accessing freed memory.
