[PATCH v2 1/2] [media] media-device: Fix mutex handling code for ioctl

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

 



Remove two nested mutex left-overs at find_entity and make sure
that the code won't suffer race conditions if the device is
being removed while ioctl is being handled nor the topology changes,
by protecting all ioctls with a mutex at media_device_ioctl().

As reported by Laurent, commit c38077d39c7e ("[media] media-device:
get rid of the spinlock") introduced a deadlock in the
MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_LINKS ioctl handler:

[ 2760.127749] INFO: task media-ctl:954 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

That's because find_entity() holds the graph_mutex, but both
MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_LINKS and MEDIA_IOC_SETUP_LINK logic also take
the mutex.
