[PATCH 8/8] dyndbg: add locking around zpool-add loop in zpool-init

From: Jim Cromie
Date: Fri Aug 07 2020 - 16:10:40 EST


summary: no fix here.

Locking review:

ddebug_zpool_init(), like other *_init() routines, does not run under
a lock (that we control). Unlike them, it runs later, at late_init.
I dont know whether this is pertinent to the kernel panic.

ddebug_callsite_get/put() are called as a pair under mutex-lock for
all 3 callsite users; dynamic_emit_prefix() does its own ABBA-ish LGPU
(Lock-Get-Put-Unlock), as does ddebug_change().

ddebug_proc_show() does GP, ddebug_proc_start|stop() wrap it with LU.

ddebug_add_module() does LU to protect list_add(), HEAD~x added
ddebug_zpool_add() inside that protection.

This commit adds locking to ddebug_zpool_init(), around the loop of
ddebug_zpool_add(), to match the locking in ddebug_add_module().
