The buffer can cover # several pages and VMAs. The function iterates over all the pages used # by the buffer, based on the page size of the VMA. # # To ensure some stability while processing the faults, the thread T1 # grabs the mm->mmap_sem semaphore with read access (R1). However, when # processing a page fault for a single page, one of the underlying # functions, copro_handle_mm_fault(), also grabs the same semaphore with # read access (R2). So the thread T1 takes the semaphore twice. # # If another thread T2 tries to access the semaphore in write mode W1 # (say, because it wants to allocate memory and calls 'brk'), then that # thread T2 will have to wait because there's a reader (R1). If the # thread T1 is processing a new page at that time, it won't get an # automatic grant at R2, because there's now a writer thread # waiting (T2). And we have a deadlock. # # The timeline is: # 1. thread T1 owns the semaphore with read access R1 # 2. thread T2 requests write access W1 and waits # 3. thread T1 requests read access R2 and waits # # The fix is for the thread T1 to release the semaphore R1 once it got # the information it needs from the current VMA. The address space/VMAs # could evolve while T1 iterates over the full buffer, but in the # unlikely case where T1 misses a page, the external driver will raise a # new page fault when retrying the memory access. # # Fixes: 3ced8d730063 ("cxl: Export library to support IBM XSL") # Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.13+ # Signed-off-by: Frederic Barrat <fbarrat@linux.vnet.ibm.com> # Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> # < /opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-5.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-gcc --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 ad7b4e8022b9864c075fe71e1328b1d25cad82f6 # < make -s -j 48 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-next_pmac32_defconfig_powerpc-5.3 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-5.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- pmac32_defconfig # make -s -j 48 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-next_pmac32_defconfig_powerpc-5.3 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-5.3.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- In file included from /kisskb/src/sound/ppc/pmac.h:25:0, from /kisskb/src/sound/ppc/awacs.c:29: /kisskb/src/sound/ppc/awacs.c: In function 'snd_pmac_awacs_init': /kisskb/src/include/sound/control.h:220:9: warning: 'speaker_vol' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] return _snd_ctl_add_slave(master, slave, 0); ^ /kisskb/src/sound/ppc/awacs.c:886:36: note: 'speaker_vol' was declared here struct snd_kcontrol master_vol, speaker_vol; ^ INFO: Uncompressed kernel (size 0x88a2f4) overlaps the address of the wrapper(0x400000) INFO: Fixing the link_address of wrapper to (0x900000) Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/powerpc-next_pmac32_defconfig_powerpc-5.3 # Build took: 0:01:20.605889
