This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net/smc: check sndbuf_space again after NOSPACE flag is set in smc_poll to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-smc-check-sndbuf_space-again-after-nospace-flag-.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 5d04092d4c4cb2c67af9b63ce97ff13c6832e206 Author: Guangguan Wang <guangguan.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Dec 11 17:21:17 2024 +0800 net/smc: check sndbuf_space again after NOSPACE flag is set in smc_poll [ Upstream commit 679e9ddcf90dbdf98aaaa71a492454654b627bcb ] When application sending data more than sndbuf_space, there have chances application will sleep in epoll_wait, and will never be wakeup again. This is caused by a race between smc_poll and smc_cdc_tx_handler. application tasklet smc_tx_sendmsg(len > sndbuf_space) | epoll_wait for EPOLL_OUT,timeout=0 | smc_poll | if (!smc->conn.sndbuf_space) | | smc_cdc_tx_handler | atomic_add sndbuf_space | smc_tx_sndbuf_nonfull | if (!test_bit SOCK_NOSPACE) | do not sk_write_space; set_bit SOCK_NOSPACE; | return mask=0; | Application will sleep in epoll_wait as smc_poll returns 0. And smc_cdc_tx_handler will not call sk_write_space because the SOCK_NOSPACE has not be set. If there is no inflight cdc msg, sk_write_space will not be called any more, and application will sleep in epoll_wait forever. So check sndbuf_space again after NOSPACE flag is set to break the race.
