[RFC PATCH net 2/2] net/smc: Resolve the race between SMC-R link access and clear

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

 



We encountered some crashes caused by the race between SMC-R
link access and link clear triggered by link group termination
in abnormal case, like port error.

Here are some of panic stacks we met:

1) Race between smc_llc_flow_initiate() and smcr_link_clear()

These crashes are caused by clearing SMC-R link resources
when someone is still accessing to them. So this patch tries
to fix it by introducing reference count of SMC-R links and
ensuring that the sensitive resources of links are not
cleared until reference count is zero.

The operation to the SMC-R link reference count can be concluded
as follows:

object          [hold or initialized as 1]         [put]
--------------------------------------------------------------------
links           smcr_link_init()                   smcr_link_clear()
connections     smcr_lgr_conn_assign_link()        smc_conn_free()

Through this way, the clear of SMC-R links is later than the
free of all the smc connections above it, thus avoiding the
unsafe reference to SMC-R links.
