[PATCH 5.2 159/162] io_uring: add need_resched() check in inner poll loop

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Aug 27 2019 - 04:06:56 EST


[ Upstream commit 08f5439f1df25a6cf6cf4c72cf6c13025599ce67 ]

The outer poll loop checks for whether we need to reschedule, and
returns to userspace if we do. However, it's possible to get stuck
in the inner loop as well, if the CPU we are running on needs to
reschedule to finish the IO work.

Add the need_resched() check in the inner loop as well. This fixes
a potential hang if the kernel is configured with
CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y.
