[PATCH] device-dax: avoid hang on error before devm_memremap_pages()
From: Stefan Hajnoczi
Date: Tue Jul 31 2018 - 10:32:53 EST
dax_pmem_percpu_exit() waits for dax_pmem_percpu_release() to invoke the
dax_pmem->cmp completion. Unfortunately this approach to cleaning up
the percpu_ref only works after devm_memremap_pages() was successful.
If devm_add_action_or_reset() or devm_memremap_pages() fails,
dax_pmem_percpu_release() is not invoked. Therefore
dax_pmem_percpu_exit() hangs waiting for the completion:
rc = devm_add_action_or_reset(dev, dax_pmem_percpu_exit,
&dax_pmem->ref);
if (rc)
return rc;
dax_pmem->pgmap.ref = &dax_pmem->ref;
addr = devm_memremap_pages(dev, &dax_pmem->pgmap);
Avoid the hang by calling percpu_ref_exit() in the error paths instead
of going through dax_pmem_percpu_exit().
