[PATCH] ACPICA: fix deadlock on recursion of entry method

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The execution of each control method is protected by a mutex.
acpi_ds_begin_method_execution avoids trying to reacquire a mutex during
recursion by checking if the mutex is already held by the current
thread. The mutex's thread_id is only set in
acpi_ds_begin_method_execution if a walk state is present (when the
method is being called by another method). This fails for the external
entry point method executed via acpi_ps_execute_method: the mutex is
acquired but as walk_state is null the thread_id is not set. Subsequent
recursion on the entry method then blocks indefinitely attempting to
grab the mutex that the thread already holds. Fix by initializing the
mutex's thread_id with acpi_os_get_thread_id when a walk state is not
available.

For me this bug is triggered by thunderbolt hotplug on a Dell XPS 15
9550, breaking hotplug and causing subsequent suspend or shutdown to
hang indefinitely.

And part of the impacted method from the DSDT:
