[PATCH 4.9 229/251] dm cache: Fix ABBA deadlock between shrink_slab and dm_cache_metadata_abort

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

 



From: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 352b837a5541690d4f843819028cf2b8be83d424 upstream.

Same ABBA deadlock pattern fixed in commit 4b60f452ec51 ("dm thin: Fix
ABBA deadlock between shrink_slab and dm_pool_abort_metadata") to
DM-cache's metadata.

Reported-by: Zhihao Cheng <chengzhihao1@xxxxxxxxxx>
Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Fixes: 028ae9f76f29 ("dm cache: add fail io mode and needs_check flag")
