UBUNTU-CVE-2024-56589: Medium severity ubuntu/linux-azure vulnerability

Q: Which systems are most likely to encounter this issue?

The reported scenario uses the hisi_sas SCSI driver on a kernel without forced preemption, with an expander connected to 12 high-performance SAS SSDs. The affected Ubuntu kernel package families listed are linux, linux-fips, linux-azure, linux-aws-fips, linux-azure-fips, linux-gcp-fips, linux-gcp, and linux-oracle.

Q: What operational impact should administrators expect?

The issue can cause a watchdog-detected soft lockup, with a CPU remaining stuck for roughly 22 seconds in the reported trace. The supplied severity vector indicates an availability impact and no stated confidentiality or integrity impact.

Q: How can I identify a likely occurrence in logs?

Look for watchdog messages such as "BUG: soft lockup - CPU#... stuck for ...s" involving an irq/149-hisi_sa thread. The provided trace also includes frames such as fput_many and fput.

In the performance test scenario, function irqwaitforinterrupt() will always return 0 if lots of interrupts occurs and the CPU will be continuously consumed. As a result, the CPU cannot run the watchdog thread. When the watchdog time exceeds the specified time, call trace occurs. To fix it, add condresched() to execute the watchdog thread.
