Hi Bjorn, I filed a bugzilla about this issue, and attached some useful infos, hope this can help you.:) bugzilla url:https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60672 Regards, Gu > > Bjorn > >>> On 02/06/2013 06:16 PM, Gu Zheng wrote: >>> >>>> 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 first 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.
