Subject[PATCH 0/4] pci aer: fix deadlock in do_recovery
Date
I am seeing a dead lock while loading enic driver with sriov enabled.

CPU0 CPU1
---------------------------------------------------------------------
__driver_attach()
device_lock(&dev->mutex) <--- device mutex lock here
driver_probe_device()
pci_enable_sriov()
pci_iov_add_virtfn()
pci_device_add()
aer_isr() <--- pci aer error
do_recovery()
broadcast_error_message()
pci_walk_bus()
down_read(&pci_bus_sem) <--- rd sem
down_write(&pci_bus_sem) <-- stuck on wr sem
report_error_detected()
device_lock(&dev->mutex)<--- DEAD LOCK

This can also happen when aer error occurs while pci_dev->sriov_config() is
called.

Only fix I could think of is to lock &pci_bus_sem and try locking all
device->mutex under that pci_bus. If it fails, unlock all device->mutex
and &pci_bus_sem and try again. This approach seems to be hackish and I
do not have better solution. I would like to open the discussion for
this.

Path 1 and 2 are code refactoring for pci locking api. Patch 3 fixes the
issue.

With current fix, we hold mutex lock of parent device and all the
devices under the bus. This can exceed the size of held_locks in lockdep
if number of devices (VFs) exceed 48. Patch 4 extends this 63, max
supported by lockdep.

Govindarajulu Varadarajan (4):
pci: introduce __pci_walk_bus for caller with pci_bus_sem held
pci: code refactor pci_bus_lock/unlock/trylock
pci aer: fix deadlock in do_recovery
lockdep: make MAX_LOCK_DEPTH configurable from Kconfig
