From: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 6ad1c94e1e7e374d88f0cfd77936dddb8339aaba ] Zbynek reports that alx trips an rtnl assertion on resume: RTNL: assertion failed at net/core/dev.c (2891) RIP: 0010:netif_set_real_num_tx_queues+0x1ac/0x1c0 Call Trace: <TASK> __alx_open+0x230/0x570 [alx] alx_resume+0x54/0x80 [alx] ? pci_legacy_resume+0x80/0x80 dpm_run_callback+0x4a/0x150 device_resume+0x8b/0x190 async_resume+0x19/0x30 async_run_entry_fn+0x30/0x130 process_one_work+0x1e5/0x3b0 indeed the driver does not hold rtnl_lock during its internal close and re-open functions during suspend/resume. Note that this is not a huge bug as the driver implements its own locking, and does not implement changing the number of queues, but we need to silence the splat. Fixes: 4a5fe57e7751 ("alx: use fine-grained locking instead of RTNL") Reported-and-tested-by: Zbynek Michl <zbynek.michl@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Niels Dossche <dossche.niels@xxxxxxxxx> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220928181236.1053043-1-kuba@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/alx/main.c | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/alx/main.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/alx/main.c index 98a8698a3201..2ac5253ff89a 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/alx/main.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/alx/main.c @@ -1912,11 +1912,14 @@ static int alx_suspend(struct device *dev) if (!netif_running(alx->dev)) return 0; + + rtnl_lock(); netif_device_detach(alx->dev); mutex_lock(&alx->mtx); __alx_stop(alx); mutex_unlock(&alx->mtx); + rtnl_unlock(); return 0; } @@ -1927,6 +1930,7 @@ static int alx_resume(struct device *dev) struct alx_hw *hw = &alx->hw; int err; + rtnl_lock(); mutex_lock(&alx->mtx); alx_reset_phy(hw); @@ -1943,6 +1947,7 @@ static int alx_resume(struct device *dev) unlock: mutex_unlock(&alx->mtx); + rtnl_unlock(); return err; } -- 2.35.1
