From adb6fa7ffe9031857ec14b8aab75c9ab65556cbc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stanislav Kinsbursky Date: Wed, 26 Jun 2013 10:15:14 +0400 Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: fix races on PipeFS UMOUNT notifications CPU#0 CPU#1 ----------------------------- ----------------------------- rpc_kill_sb sn->pipefs_sb = NULL rpc_release_client (UMOUNT_EVENT) rpc_free_auth rpc_pipefs_event rpc_get_client_for_event !atomic_inc_not_zero(cl_count) atomic_inc(cl_count) rpc_free_client rpc_clnt_remove_pipedir To fix this, this patch does the following: 1) Calls RPC_PIPEFS_UMOUNT notification with sn->pipefs_sb_lock being held. 2) Removes SUNRPC client from the list AFTER pipes destroying. 3) Doesn't hold RPC client on notification: if client in the list, then it can't be destroyed while sn->pipefs_sb_lock in hold by notification caller.
