[PATCH] RDMA: Fix potential deadlock on &dev->rdi.pending_lock

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

 



qib_7322intr() could introduce double locks on &dev->rdi.pending_lock
if it preempts other execution units requiring the same locks.

<Deadlock #1>
qib_notify_error_qp()
--> spin_lock(&dev->rdi.pending_lock)
<interrupt>
   --> qib_7322intr()
   --> qib_ib_piobufavail()
   --> spin_lock_irqsave(&dev->rdi.pending_lock)

<Deadlock #2>
qib_flush_qp_waiters()
--> spin_lock(&dev->rdi.pending_lock)
<interrupt>
   --> qib_7220intr()
   --> qib_ib_piobufavail()
   --> spin_lock_irqsave(&dev->rdi.pending_lock)

This flaw was found by an experimental static analysis tool I am
developing for irq-related deadlock.

To prevent the potential deadlock, the patch uses spin_lock_irqsave()
on &dev->rdi.pending_lock inside qib_notify_error_qp() and
qib_flush_qp_waiters() to prevent the possible deadlock scenario.
