Hello! This is an experimental semi-automated report about issues detected by Coverity from a scan of next-20210408 as part of the linux-next scan project: https://scan.coverity.com/projects/linux-next-weekly-scan You're getting this email because you were associated with the identified lines of code (noted below) that were touched by commits: Wed Apr 7 12:41:22 2021 +0800 91a196935395 ("erofs: introduce multipage per-CPU buffers") Coverity reported the following: *** CID 1503700: Program hangs (LOCK) /fs/erofs/pcpubuf.c: 31 in erofs_get_pcpubuf() 25 raw_spin_lock(&pcb->lock); 26 if (requiredpages > pcb->nrpages) { 27 raw_spin_unlock(&pcb->lock); 28 put_cpu_var(erofs_pcb); 29 return NULL; 30 } vvv CID 1503700: Program hangs (LOCK) vvv Returning without unlocking "pcb->lock". 31 return pcb->ptr; 32 } 33 34 void erofs_put_pcpubuf(void *ptr) 35 { 36 struct erofs_pcpubuf *pcb = &per_cpu(erofs_pcb, smp_processor_id()); If this is a false positive, please let us know so we can mark it as such, or teach the Coverity rules to be smarter. If not, please make sure fixes get into linux-next. :) For patches fixing this, please include these lines (but double-check the "Fixes" first): Reported-by: coverity-bot <keescook+coverity-bot@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1503700 ("Program hangs") Fixes: 91a196935395 ("erofs: introduce multipage per-CPU buffers") Thanks for your attention! -- Coverity-bot
