[PATCH v4 1/5] PCI: hv: Fix a race condition bug in hv_pci_query_relations()

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

 



Since day 1 of the driver, there has been a race between
hv_pci_query_relations() and survey_child_resources(): during fast
device hotplug, hv_pci_query_relations() may error out due to
device-remove and the stack variable 'comp' is no longer valid;
however, pci_devices_present_work() -> survey_child_resources() ->
complete() may be running on another CPU and accessing the no-longer-valid
'comp'. Fix the race by flushing the workqueue before we exit from
hv_pci_query_relations().
