Rework nvme_delete_ctrl_sync() such that it does not have to wait for queued work. This patch avoids that test nvme/008 triggers the following complaint: WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 5.0.0-rc6-dbg+ #10 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------ nvme/7918 is trying to acquire lock: 000000009a1a7b69 ((work_completion)(&ctrl->delete_work)){+.+.}, at: __flush_work+0x379/0x410 but task is already holding lock: 00000000ef5a45b4 (kn->count#389){++++}, at: kernfs_remove_self+0x196/0x210 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (kn->count#389){++++}: lock_acquire+0xc5/0x1e0 __kernfs_remove+0x42a/0x4a0 kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x45/0x90 remove_files.isra.1+0x3a/0x90 sysfs_remove_group+0x5c/0xc0 sysfs_remove_groups+0x39/0x60 device_remove_attrs+0x68/0xb0 device_del+0x24d/0x570 cdev_device_del+0x1a/0x50 nvme_delete_ctrl_work+0xbd/0xe0 process_one_work+0x4f1/0xa40 worker_thread+0x67/0x5b0 kthread+0x1cf/0x1f0 ret_from_fork+0x24/0x30 -> #0 ((work_completion)(&ctrl->delete_work)){+.+.}: __lock_acquire+0x1323/0x17b0 lock_acquire+0xc5/0x1e0 __flush_work+0x399/0x410 flush_work+0x10/0x20 nvme_delete_ctrl_sync+0x65/0x70 nvme_sysfs_delete+0x4f/0x60 dev_attr_store+0x3e/0x50 sysfs_kf_write+0x87/0xa0 kernfs_fop_write+0x186/0x240 __vfs_write+0xd7/0x430 vfs_write+0xfa/0x260 ksys_write+0xab/0x130 __x64_sys_write+0x43/0x50 do_syscall_64+0x71/0x210 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(kn->count#389); lock((work_completion)(&ctrl->delete_work)); lock(kn->count#389); lock((work_completion)(&ctrl->delete_work)); *** DEADLOCK *** 3 locks held by nvme/7918: #0: 00000000e2223b44 (sb_writers#6){.+.+}, at: vfs_write+0x1eb/0x260 #1: 000000003404976f (&of->mutex){+.+.}, at: kernfs_fop_write+0x128/0x240 #2: 00000000ef5a45b4 (kn->count#389){++++}, at: kernfs_remove_self+0x196/0x210 stack backtrace: CPU: 4 PID: 7918 Comm: nvme Not tainted 5.0.0-rc6-dbg+ #10 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-1 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x86/0xca print_circular_bug.isra.36.cold.54+0x173/0x1d5 check_prev_add.constprop.45+0x996/0x1110 __lock_acquire+0x1323/0x17b0 lock_acquire+0xc5/0x1e0 __flush_work+0x399/0x410 flush_work+0x10/0x20 nvme_delete_ctrl_sync+0x65/0x70 nvme_sysfs_delete+0x4f/0x60 dev_attr_store+0x3e/0x50 sysfs_kf_write+0x87/0xa0 kernfs_fop_write+0x186/0x240 __vfs_write+0xd7/0x430 vfs_write+0xfa/0x260 ksys_write+0xab/0x130 __x64_sys_write+0x43/0x50 do_syscall_64+0x71/0x210 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Reviewed-by: Keith Busch <keith.busch@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
