[PATCH 4.17 255/324] sfc: avoid hang from nested use of the filter_sem

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Aug 23 2018 - 05:03:50 EST


4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bert Kenward <bkenward@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 1c56c0994a533ce564843a0d17af7a3e6e68f269 ]

In some situations we may end up calling down_read while already
holding the semaphore for write, thus hanging. This has been seen
when setting the MAC address for the interface. The hung task log
in this situation includes this stack:
down_read
efx_ef10_filter_insert
efx_ef10_filter_insert_addr_list
efx_ef10_filter_vlan_sync_rx_mode
efx_ef10_filter_add_vlan
efx_ef10_filter_table_probe
efx_ef10_set_mac_address
efx_set_mac_address
dev_set_mac_address

In addition, lockdep rightly points out that nested calling of
down_read is incorrect.

Fixes: c2bebe37c6b6 ("sfc: give ef10 its own rwsem in the filter table instead of filter_lock")
