commit 8d1ddb5e79374fb277985a6b3faa2ed8631c5b4c upstream.
Syzbot reports a potential deadlock found by the newly added recursive
read deadlock detection in lockdep:
[...] ========================================================
[...] WARNING: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected
[...] 5.9.0-rc2-syzkaller #0 Not tainted
[...] --------------------------------------------------------
[...] syz-executor.1/10214 just changed the state of lock:
[...] ffff88811f506338 (&f->f_owner.lock){.+..}-{2:2}, at: send_sigurg+0x1d/0x200
[...] but this lock was taken by another, HARDIRQ-safe lock in the past:
[...] (&dev->event_lock){-...}-{2:2}
[...]
[...]
[...] and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.
[...]
[...]
[...] other info that might help us debug this:
[...] Chain exists of:
[...] &dev->event_lock --> &new->fa_lock --> &f->f_owner.lock
[...]
[...] Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:
[...]
[...] CPU0 CPU1
[...] ---- ----
[...] lock(&f->f_owner.lock);
[...] local_irq_disable();
[...] lock(&dev->event_lock);
[...] lock(&new->fa_lock);
[...] <Interrupt>
[...] lock(&dev->event_lock);
[...]
[...] *** DEADLOCK ***
The corresponding deadlock case is as followed:
CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2
read_lock(&fown->lock);
spin_lock_irqsave(&dev->event_lock, ...)
write_lock_irq(&filp->f_owner.lock); // wait for the lock
read_lock(&fown-lock); // have to wait until the writer release
// due to the fairness
<interrupted>
spin_lock_irqsave(&dev->event_lock); // wait for the lock
The lock dependency on CPU 1 happens if there exists a call sequence:
input_inject_event():
spin_lock_irqsave(&dev->event_lock,...);
input_handle_event():
input_pass_values():
input_to_handler():
handler->event(): // evdev_event()
evdev_pass_values():
spin_lock(&client->buffer_lock);
__pass_event():
kill_fasync():
kill_fasync_rcu():
read_lock(&fa->fa_lock);
send_sigio():
read_lock(&fown->lock);
To fix this, make the reader in send_sigurg() and send_sigio() use
read_lock_irqsave() and read_lock_irqrestore().
