[PATCH] PCI/sysfs: Fix race in pci sysfs creation

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

 



Currently there is a race in calling pci_create_resource_files function
from two different therads, first therad is triggered by pci_sysfs_init
from the late initcall where as the second thread is initiated by
pci_bus_add_devices from the respective PCI drivers probe.

The synchronization between these threads relies on the sysfs_initialized
flag. However, in pci_sysfs_init, sysfs_initialized is set right before
calling pci_create_resource_files which is wrong as it can create race
condition with pci_bus_add_devices threads. Fix this by setting
sysfs_initialized flag at the end of pci_sysfs_init and direecly call the
pci_create_resource_files function from it.

There can be an additional case where driver probe is so delayed that
pci_bus_add_devices is called after the sysfs is created by pci_sysfs_init.
In such cases, attempting to access already existing sysfs resources is
unnecessary. Fix this by adding a check for sysfs attributes and return
if they are already allocated.

In both cases, the consequence will be the removal of sysfs resources that
were appropriately allocated by pci_sysfs_init following the warning below.
