[PATCH] block/loop: Don't hold lock while rereading partition.

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

 



syzbot is reporting circular locking dependency between bdev->bd_mutex and
lo->lo_ctl_mutex [1] which is caused by calling blkdev_reread_part() with
lock held. Don't hold loop_ctl_mutex while calling blkdev_reread_part().
Also, bring bdgrab() at loop_set_fd() to before loop_reread_partitions()
in case loop_clr_fd() is called while blkdev_reread_part() from
loop_set_fd() is in progress.
