From 2c2b04253bfc7ac67a2ab71a6e771cd42e9418fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "wenlin.kang" Date: Wed, 8 Jan 2014 14:22:11 +0800 Subject: usb: gadget: printer: fix possible deadlock The problem occurs in follow path. printer_read() | +---setup_rx_reqs() | +---usb_ep_queue() | +---... | +---rx_complete() Although it is clear from code, we can't get it normally. only when we enable some spin_lock debug config option, we can find it. eg: BUG: spinlock lockup on CPU#0, g_printer_test_/584 lock: bf05e158, .magic: dead4ead, .owner: g_printer_test_/584, .owner_cpu: 0 [] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0x104) from [] (dump_stack+0x20/0x24) [] (dump_stack+0x20/0x24) from [] (spin_dump+0x8c/0x94) [] (spin_dump+0x8c/0x94) from [] (do_raw_spin_lock+0x128/0x154) [] (do_raw_spin_lock+0x128/0x154) from [] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x64/0x70) [] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x64/0x70) from [] (rx_complete+0x54/0x10c [g_printer]) [] (rx_complete+0x54/0x10c [g_printer]) from [] (musb_g_giveback+0x78/0x88) [] (musb_g_giveback+0x78/0x88) from [] (rxstate+0xa0/0x10c) [] (rxstate+0xa0/0x10c) from [] (musb_ep_restart+0x44/0x70) [] (musb_ep_restart+0x44/0x70) from [] (musb_gadget_queue+0xe8/0xf8) [] (musb_gadget_queue+0xe8/0xf8) from [] (setup_rx_reqs+0xa4/0x178 [g_printer]) [] (setup_rx_reqs+0xa4/0x178 [g_printer]) from [] (printer_read+0x9c/0x3f4 [g_printer]) [] (printer_read+0x9c/0x3f4 [g_printer]) from [] (vfs_read+0xb4/0x144) [] (vfs_read+0xb4/0x144) from [] (sys_read+0x50/0x124) [] (sys_read+0x50/0x124) from [] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x3c) The root cause is that we use the same lock two time in a path, so to avoid the deadlock, we need to unlock in setup_rx_reqs(), and only unlock.
