Subject: [74/89] oprofile, dcookies: Fix possible circular locking dependency
Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2011 17:00:37 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110616000236.252350932@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110616000258.GA14529@kroah.com>
2.6.39-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
commit fe47ae7f53e179d2ef6771024feb000cbb86640f upstream.
The lockdep warning below detects a possible A->B/B->A locking
dependency of mm->mmap_sem and dcookie_mutex. The order in
sync_buffer() is mm->mmap_sem/dcookie_mutex, while in
sys_lookup_dcookie() it is vice versa.
Fixing it in sys_lookup_dcookie() by unlocking dcookie_mutex before
copy_to_user().
oprofiled/4432 is trying to acquire lock:
(&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff810b444b>] might_fault+0x53/0xa3
but task is already holding lock:
(dcookie_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81124d28>] sys_lookup_dcookie+0x45/0x149
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
-> #1 (dcookie_mutex){+.+.+.}:
[<ffffffff8106557f>] lock_acquire+0xf8/0x11e
[<ffffffff814634f0>] mutex_lock_nested+0x63/0x309

[<ffffffff81124de7>] sys_lookup_dcookie+0x104/0x149
[<ffffffff8146ad4b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
other info that might help us debug this:
1 lock held by oprofiled/4432:
#0: (dcookie_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81124d28>] sys_lookup_dcookie+0x45/0x149
