Hogan reported a vector setup race, which overwrites the interrupt
descriptor in the per CPU vector array resulting in a disfunctional device.
CPU0 CPU1
interrupt is raised in APIC IRR
but not handled
free_irq()
per_cpu(vector_irq, CPU1)[vector] = VECTOR_SHUTDOWN;
request_irq() common_interrupt()
d = this_cpu_read(vector_irq[vector]);
per_cpu(vector_irq, CPU1)[vector] = desc;
if (d == VECTOR_SHUTDOWN)
this_cpu_write(vector_irq[vector], VECTOR_UNUSED);
free_irq() cannot observe the pending vector in the CPU1 APIC as there is
no way to query the remote CPUs APIC IRR.
This requires that request_irq() uses the same vector/CPU as the one which
was freed, but this also can be triggered by a spurious interrupt.
Interestingly enough this problem managed to be hidden for more than a
decade.
Prevent this by reevaluating vector_irq under the vector lock, which is
held by the interrupt activation code when vector_irq is updated.
To avoid ifdeffery or IS_ENABLED() nonsense, move the
[un]lock_vector_lock() declarations out under the
CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY guard as it's only provided when
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC=y.
The current CONFIG_IRQ_DOMAIN_HIERARCHY guard is selected by
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC, but can also be selected by other parts of the
Kconfig system, which makes 32-bit UP builds with CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC=n
fail.
Can we just get rid of this !APIC nonsense once and forever?

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
