Subject: libnvdimm: fix nvdimm_bus_lock() vs device_lock() ordering
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 452bae0aede774f87bf56c28b6dd50b72c78986c upstream.
A debug patch to turn the standard device_lock() into something that
lockdep can analyze yielded the following:
======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
4.11.0-rc4+ #106 Tainted: G O
-------------------------------------------------------
lt-libndctl/1898 is trying to acquire lock:
(&dev->nvdimm_mutex/3){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffc023c948>] nd_attach_ndns+0x178/0x1b0 [libnvdimm]
but task is already holding lock:
(&nvdimm_bus->reconfig_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffc022e0b1>] nvdimm_bus_lock+0x21/0x30 [libnvdimm]
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
-> #1 (&nvdimm_bus->reconfig_mutex){+.+.+.}:
lock_acquire+0xf6/0x1f0
__mutex_lock+0x88/0x980
mutex_lock_nested+0x1b/0x20
nvdimm_bus_lock+0x21/0x30 [libnvdimm]
nvdimm_namespace_capacity+0x1b/0x40 [libnvdimm]
nvdimm_namespace_common_probe+0x230/0x510 [libnvdimm]
nd_pmem_probe+0x14/0x180 [nd_pmem]
nvdimm_bus_probe+0xa9/0x260 [libnvdimm]
-> #0 (&dev->nvdimm_mutex/3){+.+.+.}:
__lock_acquire+0x1107/0x1280
lock_acquire+0xf6/0x1f0
__mutex_lock+0x88/0x980
mutex_lock_nested+0x1b/0x20
nd_attach_ndns+0x178/0x1b0 [libnvdimm]
nd_namespace_store+0x308/0x3c0 [libnvdimm]
namespace_store+0x87/0x220 [libnvdimm]
In this case '&dev->nvdimm_mutex/3' mirrors '&dev->mutex'.
Fix this by replacing the use of device_lock() with nvdimm_bus_lock() to protect
nd_{attach,detach}_ndns() operations.
