In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
timers/migration: Fix livelock in tmigr handle remote up()
tmigr handle remote cpu() skips timer expire remote() when cpu == smp processor id(), assuming the local softirq path already handled this CPU's timers.
This assumption is wrong because jiffies can advance after the handling of the CPU's global timers in run timer base(BASE GLOBAL) and before tmigr handle remote() evaluates the expiry times.
As a consequence a timer which expires after the CPU local timer wheel advanced and becomes expired in the remote handling is ignored and the callback is never invoked and removed from the timer wheel.
What's worse is that fetch next timer interrupt remote() keeps reporting it as expired, and the event is re-queued with expires == now on each iteration. The goto-again loop spins indefinitely.
Fix this by calling timer expire remote() unconditionally. That's minimal overhead for the common case as run timer base() returns immediately if there is nothing to expire in the local wheel.
