CVE-2026-43130

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/vt-d: Flush dev-IOTLB only when PCIe device is accessible in scalable mode Commit 4fc82cd907ac ("iommu/vt-d: Don't issue ATS Invalidation request when device is disconnected") relies on pci_dev_is_disconnected() to skip ATS invalidation for safely-removed devices, but it does not cover link-down caused by faults, which can still hard-lock the system. For example, if a VM fails to connect to the PCIe device, "virsh destroy" is executed to release resources and isolate the fault, but a hard-lockup occurs while releasing the group fd. Call Trace: qi_submit_sync qi_flush_dev_iotlb intel_pasid_tear_down_entry device_block_translation blocking_domain_attach_dev __iommu_attach_device __iommu_device_set_domain __iommu_group_set_domain_internal iommu_detach_group vfio_iommu_type1_detach_group vfio_group_detach_container vfio_group_fops_release __fput Although pci_device_is_present() is slower than pci_dev_is_disconnected(), it still takes only ~70 µs on a ConnectX-5 (8 GT/s, x2) and becomes even faster as PCIe speed and width increase. Besides, devtlb_invalidation_with_pasid() is called only in the paths below, which are far less frequent than memory map/unmap. 1. mm-struct release 2. {attach,release}_dev 3. set/remove PASID 4. dirty-tracking setup The gain in system stability far outweighs the negligible cost of using pci_device_is_present() instead of pci_dev_is_disconnected() to decide when to skip ATS invalidation, especially under GDR high-load conditions.
