From: Jiang Liu <liuj97@xxxxxxxxx> There are multiple methods to trigger PCI hotplug requests/operations concurrently, such as: 1. Sysfs interfaces exported by the PCI core subsystem /sys/devices/pcissss:bb/ssss:bb:dd.f/.../remove /sys/devices/pcissss:bb/ssss:bb:dd.f/.../rescan /sys/devices/pcissss:bb/ssss:bb:dd.f/.../pci_bus/ssss:bb/rescan /sys/bus/pci/rescan 2. Sysfs interfaces exported by the PCI hotplug subsystem /sys/bus/pci/slots/xx/power 3. PCI hotplug events triggered by PCI Hotplug Controllers 4. ACPI hotplug events for PCI host bridges 5. Driver binding/unbinding events binding/unbinding pci drivers with SR-IOV support With current implementation, the PCI core subsystem doesn't support concurrent hotplug operations yet. The existing pci_bus_sem lock only protects several lists in struct pci_bus, such as children list, devices list, but it doesn't protect the pci_bus or pci_dev structure themselves. Let's take pci_remove_bus_device() as an example, which are used by PCI hotplug drivers to hot-remove PCI devices. Currently all these are free running without any protection, so it can't support reentrance. pci_remove_bus_device() ->pci_stop_bus_device() ->pci_stop_bus_device() ->pci_stop_bus_devices() ->pci_stop_dev() ->pci_proc_detach_device() ->pci_remove_sysfs_dev_files() ->device_unregister() ->pcie_aspm_exit_link_state() ->__pci_remove_bus_device() ->__pci_remove_behind_bridge() ->pci_remove_bus() ->device_unregister() ->pci_destroy_dev() ->pci_free_resources() ->pci_dev_put() There are similar issues on hot-adding side. It may also cause trouble if pci_remove_bus_device() and pci_rescan_bus() are called concurrently. So this patchset introduces a recursive rwsem to globally serialize all PCI hotplug operations. It also fixes some minor bugs in current code. Following PCI hotplug drivers/interfaces have been enhanced with this new lock. 1. Sysfs interfaces exported by the PCI core subsystem 2. Sysfs interfaces exported by the PCI hotplug subsystem 3. pciehp 4. shpchp 5. cpcihp_generic and cpcihp_zt5550 6. fakephp We have tested pciehp and fakephp, but lack of hardware platforms to test other affected hotplug drivers. There are still several tasks on the TODO list: 1) all other PCI hotplug driver in drivers/pci/hotplug directory 2) SR-IOV 3) acpiphp (plan to do this based on Yinghai's PCI root bus hotplug gate) 4) pci_root (plan to do this based on Yinghai's PCI root bus hotplug gate) V2: refine commit messages and hide sys interface 'remove' and 'rescan' of SR-IOV virtural devices Jiang Liu (18): PCI: introduce pci_bus_get()/pci_bus_put() to hide PCI implementation details PCI: introduce recursive rwsem to serialize PCI hotplug operations PCI: replace pci_remove_rescan_mutex with the PCI hotplug lock PCI: serialize hotplug operations triggered by PCI hotplug sysfs interfaces PCI: correctly flush workqueue when destroy pcie hotplug controller PCI: prepare for serializing hotplug operations triggered by pciehp driver PCI: serialize hotplug operaitons triggered by the pciehp driver PCI: fix two race windows when probing/removing SHPC controller PCI: correctly flush workqueues and timer when destroy SHPC controller PCI: serialize hotplug operaitons triggered by the shpchp driver PCI: release IO resource in error handling path in cpcihp_generic_init() PCI: clean up all resources in error handling path in zt5550_hc_init_one() PCI: trivial code clean up in cpci_hotplug_core.c PCI: fix race windows when shutting down cpcihp controller PCI: hold a reference count to the PCI bus used by cpcihp drivers PCI: serialize PCI hotplug operations triggered by cpcihp drivers PCI: serialize PCI hotplug operations triggered by fakephp drivers PCI: hide sys interface 'remove' and 'rescan' for SR-IOV virtual devices Yinghai Lu (1): PCI, sysfs: Use device_type and attr_groups with pci dev drivers/pci/bus.c | 15 +++ drivers/pci/hotplug.c | 55 ++++++++++ drivers/pci/hotplug/cpci_hotplug_core.c | 53 ++++++----- drivers/pci/hotplug/cpcihp_generic.c | 30 ++++-- drivers/pci/hotplug/cpcihp_zt5550.c | 21 +++- drivers/pci/hotplug/fakephp.c | 38 ++++++- drivers/pci/hotplug/pci_hotplug_core.c | 26 ++++- drivers/pci/hotplug/pciehp.h | 5 +- drivers/pci/hotplug/pciehp_core.c | 25 ++++- drivers/pci/hotplug/pciehp_ctrl.c | 56 ++++++++++- drivers/pci/hotplug/pciehp_hpc.c | 18 +++- drivers/pci/hotplug/shpchp.h | 3 + drivers/pci/hotplug/shpchp_core.c | 11 +- drivers/pci/hotplug/shpchp_ctrl.c | 32 ++++++ drivers/pci/hotplug/shpchp_hpc.c | 36 ++++--- drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c | 164 ++++++++++++++++++++++--------- drivers/pci/pci.h | 1 + drivers/pci/probe.c | 1 + drivers/pci/remove.c | 1 + include/linux/pci.h | 20 ++++- 20 files changed, 480 insertions(+), 131 deletions(-) -- 1.7.5.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
