From: Sungjong Seo <sj1557.seo@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit ff84772fd45d486e4fc78c82e2f70ce5333543e6 upstream. There is a potential deadlock reported by syzbot as below: ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 6.4.0-next-20230707-syzkaller #0 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------ syz-executor330/5073 is trying to acquire lock: ffff8880218527a0 (&mm->mmap_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: mmap_read_lock_killable include/linux/mmap_lock.h:151 [inline] ffff8880218527a0 (&mm->mmap_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: get_mmap_lock_carefully mm/memory.c:5293 [inline] ffff8880218527a0 (&mm->mmap_lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: lock_mm_and_find_vma+0x369/0x510 mm/memory.c:5344 but task is already holding lock: ffff888019f760e0 (&sbi->s_lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: exfat_iterate+0x117/0xb50 fs/exfat/dir.c:232 which lock already depends on the new lock. Chain exists of: &mm->mmap_lock --> mapping.invalidate_lock#3 --> &sbi->s_lock Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&sbi->s_lock); lock(mapping.invalidate_lock#3); lock(&sbi->s_lock); rlock(&mm->mmap_lock); Let's try to avoid above potential deadlock condition by moving dir_emit*() out of sbi->s_lock coverage.
