The patch titled Subject: fs, proc: fix ABBA deadlock in case of execution attempt of map_files/ entries has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fs-proc-fix-abba-deadlock-in-case-of-execution-attempt-of-map_files-entries.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ From: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: fs, proc: fix ABBA deadlock in case of execution attempt of map_files/ entries map_files/ entries are never supposed to be executed, still curious minds might try to run them, which leads to the following deadlock [ 270.895009] ====================================================== [ 270.895054] [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] [ 270.895100] 3.4.0-rc4-24406-g841e6a6 #121 Not tainted [ 270.895144] ------------------------------------------------------- [ 270.895189] bash/1556 is trying to acquire lock: [ 270.895235] (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#8){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8116917f>] do_lookup+0x267/0x2b1 [ 270.895612] [ 270.895613] but task is already holding lock: [ 270.895731] (&sig->cred_guard_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81165244>] prepare_bprm_creds+0x2d/0x69 [ 270.896081] [ 270.896082] which lock already depends on the new lock.
