[PATCH] blk-mq: use mutex_trylock to avoid lock inversion

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

 



Currently, the kobject_del for kobjs of mq, hctx and ctx is invoked
under sysfs_lock, lock inversion will come up when other one is
acessing the associated sysfs file and trying to acquire the
sysfs_lock. To fix it, use mutex_trylock in blk_mq_sysfs_ops and
blk_mq_hw_sysfs_ops, if the lock in on contending, return -EAGAIN.
