Commit Message

Halil Pasic July 23, 2019, 10:58 p.m. UTC
The access to airq_areas was racy ever since the adapter interrupts got
introduced to virtio-ccw, but since commit 39c7dcb15892 ("virtio/s390:
make airq summary indicators DMA") this became an issue in practice as
well. Namely before that commit the airq_info that got overwritten was
still functional. After that commit however the two infos share a
summary_indicator, which aggravates the situation. Which means
auto-online mechanism occasionally hangs the boot with virtio_blk.

Signed-off-by: Halil Pasic <pasic@linux.ibm.com>
Reported-by: Marc Hartmayer <mhartmay@linux.ibm.com>
Fixes: 96b14536d935 ("virtio-ccw: virtio-ccw adapter interrupt support.")
---
* We need definitely this fixed for 5.3. For older stable kernels it is
to be discussed. @Connie what do you think: do we need a cc stable?

* I have a variant that does not need the extra mutex but uses cmpxchg().
Decided to post this one because that one is more complex. But if there
is interest we can have a look at it as well.

Unless you can prove that the problem could never happen on old version
we absolutely do need cc stable.

This is slow path (startup) and never called in hot path. Correct? Mutex should be
fine.

Yes, this needs to be cc:stable.

Yes, this is ultimately called through the ->probe functions of virtio
drivers.

Should I pick this and send a pull request, or is it quicker to just
take this directly?

I think we can you did via a fast path. Halil, can you push to the s390 tree?

No I would not like to make an attempt at proving that. I prefer code
race free anyway. CC-ing stable.

Right, this is only relevant during device initialization, which is an
infrequent operation.
