There is a potential deadlock situation when we manipulate the pci-sysfs user interfaces from different bus hierarchy simultaneously, described as following: path1: sysfs remove device: | path2: sysfs rescan device: sysfs_schedule_callback_work() | sysfs_write_file() remove_callback() | flush_write_buffer() *1* mutex_lock(&pci_remove_rescan_mutex)|*2* sysfs_get_active(attr_sd) ... | dev_attr_store() device_remove_file() | dev_rescan_store() ... |*4* mutex_lock(&pci_remove_rescan_mutex) *3* sysfs_deactivate(sd) | ... wait_for_completion() |*5* sysfs_put_active(attr_sd) *6* mutex_unlock(&pci_remove_rescan_mutex) If path1 firstly holds the pci_remove_rescan_mutex at *1*, then another path called path2 actived and runs to *2* before path1 runs to *3*, we now runs to a deadlock situation: Path1 holds the mutex waiting path2 to decrease sysfs_dirent's s_active counter at *5*, but path2 is blocked at *4* when trying to get the pci_remove_rescan_mutex. The mutex won't be put by path1 until it reach *6*, but it's now blocked at *3*. The circumvent approach is if we find someone else is manipulating the pci-tree we simply abort current operation to avoid deadlock. *dmesg ifno*: (snip) 1000e 0000:1c:00.0: eth9: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection sd 13:2:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk e1000e 0000:1c:00.0: eth9: MAC: 0, PHY: 4, PBA No: D50228-005 e1000e 0000:1c:00.1: Disabling ASPM L1 e1000e 0000:1c:00.1: Interrupt Throttling Rate (ints/sec) set to dynamic conservative mode e1000e 0000:1c:00.1: irq 143 for MSI/MSI-X e1000e 0000:1c:00.1: eth10: (PCI Express:2.5GT/s:Width x4) 00:15:17:cd:96:bf e1000e 0000:1c:00.1: eth10: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection e1000e 0000:1c:00.1: eth10: MAC: 0, PHY: 4, PBA No: D50228-005 INFO: task bash:62982 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
