From: Dave Marquardt <davem...@linux.ibm.com> Use rtnl_mutex to synchronize veth_pool_store with itself, ibmveth_close and ibmveth_open, preventing multiple calls in a row to napi_disable.
Signed-off-by: Dave Marquardt <davem...@linux.ibm.com> Fixes: 860f242eb534 ("[PATCH] ibmveth change buffer pools dynamically") Reviewed-by: Nick Child <nnac...@linux.ibm.com> --- In working on removing BUG_ON calls from ibmveth, I realized that 2 threads could call veth_pool_store through writing to /sys/devices/vio/30000002/pool*/*. You can do this easily with a little shell script. Running on a 6.14 kernel, I saw a hang: [ 243.683282][ T108] INFO: task stress.sh:5829 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

Control API calls are safe against concurrent use of datapath APIs but an incorrect sequence of control API calls may result in crashes, deadlocks, or race conditions. For example, calling napi_disable() multiple times in a row will deadlock. In the normal open and close paths, rtnl_mutex is acquired to prevent other callers. This is missing from veth_pool_store. Use rtnl_mutex in veth_pool_store fixes these hangs. drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/ibmveth.c | 27 +++++++++++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 23 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/ibmveth.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/ibmveth.c index b619a3ec245b..77ef19a53e72 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/ibmveth.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/ibmveth.c @@ -1802,18 +1802,24 @@ static ssize_t veth_pool_store(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr, long value = simple_strtol(buf, NULL, 10); long rc; + rtnl_lock(); + if (attr == &veth_active_attr) { if (value && !pool->active) { if (netif_running(netdev)) { if (ibmveth_alloc_buffer_pool(pool)) { netdev_err(netdev, "unable to alloc pool\n"); + rtnl_unlock(); return -ENOMEM; } pool->active = 1; ibmveth_close(netdev); - if ((rc = ibmveth_open(netdev))) + rc = ibmveth_open(netdev); + if (rc) { + rtnl_unlock(); return rc; + } } else { pool->active = 1; } @@ -1833,44 +1839,57 @@ static ssize_t veth_pool_store(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr, if (i == IBMVETH_NUM_BUFF_POOLS) { netdev_err(netdev, "no active pool >= MTU\n"); + rtnl_unlock(); return -EPERM; } if (netif_running(netdev)) { ibmveth_close(netdev); pool->active = 0; - if ((rc = ibmveth_open(netdev))) + rc = ibmveth_open(netdev); + if (rc) { + rtnl_unlock(); return rc; + } } pool->active = 0; } } else if (attr == &veth_num_attr) { if (value <= 0 || value > IBMVETH_MAX_POOL_COUNT) { + rtnl_unlock(); return -EINVAL; } else { if (netif_running(netdev)) { ibmveth_close(netdev); pool->size = value; - if ((rc = ibmveth_open(netdev))) + rc = ibmveth_open(netdev); + if (rc) { + rtnl_unlock(); return rc; + } } else { pool->size = value; } } } else if (attr == &veth_size_attr) { if (value <= IBMVETH_BUFF_OH || value > IBMVETH_MAX_BUF_SIZE) { + rtnl_unlock(); return -EINVAL; } else { if (netif_running(netdev)) { ibmveth_close(netdev); pool->buff_size = value; - if ((rc = ibmveth_open(netdev))) + rc = ibmveth_open(netdev); + if (rc) { + rtnl_unlock(); return rc; + } } else { pool->buff_size = value; } } } + rtnl_unlock(); /* kick the interrupt handler to allocate/deallocate pools */ ibmveth_interrupt(netdev->irq, netdev); base-commit: 4f1eaabb4b66a1f7473f584e14e15b2ac19dfaf3 -- 2.49.0
