Bug ID: 775 Summary: Potential error(e.g., resource leak, deadlock) due to the unreleased lock Product: DPDK Version: 20.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: Normal Component: netuio Assignee: dev@dpdk.org Reporter: dg573847...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- source: drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_txpp.c Hi, developers, thank you for your checking. The lock sh->txpp.mutex may not be correctly released if the !sh->txpp.refcnt || --sh->txpp.refcnt is true and control flow goes to the branch listed below. Finally, the method returns with the unreleased lock. The fix is to insert pthread_mutex_unlock(&sh->txpp.mutex); before returning. void mlx5_txpp_stop(struct rte_eth_dev *dev) { struct mlx5_priv *priv = dev->data->dev_private; struct mlx5_dev_ctx_shared *sh = priv->sh; int ret; if (!priv->txpp_en) { /* Packet pacing is already disabled for the device. */ return; } priv->txpp_en = 0; ret = pthread_mutex_lock(&sh->txpp.mutex); MLX5_ASSERT(!ret); RTE_SET_USED(ret); MLX5_ASSERT(sh->txpp.refcnt); if (!sh->txpp.refcnt || --sh->txpp.refcnt) return; // the method returns with unreleased lock /* No references any more, do actual destroy. */ mlx5_txpp_destroy(sh); ret = pthread_mutex_unlock(&sh->txpp.mutex); MLX5_ASSERT(!ret); RTE_SET_USED(ret); } -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
