CVE-2026-64430
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NTB: epf: Avoid calling pci_irq_vector() from hardirq context
ntb_epf_vec_isr() calls pci_irq_vector() in hardirq context to derive the vector number. pci_irq_vector() calls msi_get_virq() that takes a mutex and can therefore trigger "scheduling while atomic" splats:
BUG: scheduling while atomic: kworker/u33:0/55/0x00010001 ... Call trace: ... schedule+0x38/0x110 schedule_preempt_disabled+0x28/0x50 __mutex_lock.constprop.0+0x848/0x908 __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x18/0x30 mutex_lock+0x4c/0x60 msi_domain_get_virq+0xe8/0x138 pci_irq_vector+0x2c/0x60 ntb_epf_vec_isr+0x28/0x120 [ntb_hw_epf] __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x70/0x3a8 handle_irq_event+0x48/0x100 handle_edge_irq+0x100/0x1c8 ...
Cache the Linux IRQ number for vector 0 when vectors are allocated and use it as a base in the ISR. Running the ISR in a threaded IRQ handler would also avoid the problem, but that would be unnecessary here.
