[PATCH 4.6 19/56] IB/hfi1: Fix deadlock with txreq allocation slow path

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

 



4.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mike Marciniszyn <mike.marciniszyn@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 2aee309d3e01447c55fdf89cef05a0e2be372655 upstream.

A failure in the get_txreq() inline will result in a
slow path retry using __get_txreq().

__get_txreq() attempts to procure the qp s_lock, which
is already held in all callers.

Fix by deleting the s_lock maintenance in __get_txreq()
and add sparse syntax hooks to future proof the code.
