[PATCH v3 6/6] PCI: hv: Use async probing to reduce boot time

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

 



Commit 414428c5da1c ("PCI: hv: Lock PCI bus on device eject") added
pci_lock_rescan_remove() and pci_unlock_rescan_remove() in
create_root_hv_pci_bus() and in hv_eject_device_work() to address the
race between create_root_hv_pci_bus() and hv_eject_device_work(), but it
turns that grabing the pci_rescan_remove_lock mutex is not enough:
refer to the earlier fix "PCI: hv: Add a per-bus mutex state_lock".

Now with hbus->state_lock and other fixes, the race is resolved, so
remove pci_{lock,unlock}_rescan_remove() in create_root_hv_pci_bus():
this removes the serialization in hv_pci_probe() and hence allows
async-probing (PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS) to work.

Add the async-probing flag to hv_pci_drv.

pci_{lock,unlock}_rescan_remove() in hv_eject_device_work() and in
hv_pci_remove() are still kept: according to the comment before
drivers/pci/probe.c: static DEFINE_MUTEX(pci_rescan_remove_lock),
"PCI device removal routines should always be executed under this mutex".
