PCI/MSI: Warn and return error if driver enables MSI/MSI-X twice
[ Upstream commit 4c1ef72e9b71a19fb405ebfcd37c0a5e16fa44ca ] It is a serious driver defect to enable MSI or MSI-X more than once. Doing so may panic the kernel as in the stack trace below: Call Trace: sysfs_add_one+0xa5/0xd0 create_dir+0x7c/0xe0 sysfs_create_subdir+0x1c/0x20 internal_create_group+0x6d/0x290 sysfs_create_groups+0x4a/0xa0 populate_msi_sysfs+0x1cd/0x210 pci_enable_msix+0x31c/0x3e0 igbuio_pci_open+0x72/0x300 [igb_uio] uio_open+0xcc/0x120 [uio] chrdev_open+0xa1/0x1e0 [...] do_sys_open+0xf3/0x1f0 SyS_open+0x1e/0x20 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b ---[ end trace 11042e2848880209 ]--- Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: ffffffffa056b4fa We want to keep the WARN_ON() and stack trace so the driver can be fixed, but we can avoid the kernel panic by returning an error. We may still get warnings like this: Call Trace: pci_enable_msix+0x3c9/0x3e0 igbuio_pci_open+0x72/0x300 [igb_uio] uio_open+0xcc/0x120 [uio] chrdev_open+0xa1/0x1e0 [...] do_sys_open+0xf3/0x1f0 SyS_open+0x1e/0x20 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:526 sysfs_add_one+0xa5/0xd0() sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0000:01:00.1/msi_irqs' Signed-off-by: Tonghao Zhang <xiangxia.m.yue@gmail.com> [bhelgaas: changelog, fix patch whitespace, remove !!] Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
