- In vGPU code path, function vgpu_channel_abort_cleanup() does not
obtain channel reference before using the channel structure
(channel_gk20a)
- vgpu_channel_abort_cleanup() is called by vgpu_intr_thread() which
runs commands obtained from interrupt queue from RM server.
- If there is a scenario where gk20a_channel_release() function runs
before guest receives notification from RM server to abort channel
cleanup, channel gets freed before vgpu_channel_abort_cleanup() runs.
- However, because vgpu_channel_abort_cleanup() does not take explicit
reference to the channel, it ends up accessing structures
(such as ch->g) which are set to NULL and thus we end up in a crash.
- This patch explicitly takes reference of channel before
vgpu_channel_abort_cleanup() is called.
- If gk20a_channel_release() runs before vgpu_channel_abort_cleanup()
and ends up freeing channel, we dont get reference to freed
channel in vgpu_channel_abort_cleanup() and thus we return from
function rather than continuing with freed channel as was the case
previously.
