io_uring: fix infinite wait in khread_park() on io_finish_async() This fixes couple of races which lead to infinite wait of park completion with the following backtraces: [20801.303319] Call Trace: [20801.303321] ? __schedule+0x284/0x650 [20801.303323] schedule+0x33/0xc0 [20801.303324] schedule_timeout+0x1bc/0x210 [20801.303326] ? schedule+0x3d/0xc0 [20801.303327] ? schedule_timeout+0x1bc/0x210 [20801.303329] ? preempt_count_add+0x79/0xb0 [20801.303330] wait_for_completion+0xa5/0x120 [20801.303331] ? wake_up_q+0x70/0x70 [20801.303333] kthread_park+0x48/0x80 [20801.303335] io_finish_async+0x2c/0x70 [20801.303336] io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill+0x95/0x180 [20801.303338] io_uring_release+0x1c/0x20 [20801.303339] __fput+0xad/0x210 [20801.303341] task_work_run+0x8f/0xb0 [20801.303342] exit_to_usermode_loop+0xa0/0xb0 [20801.303343] do_syscall_64+0xe0/0x100 [20801.303349] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 [20801.303380] Call Trace: [20801.303383] ? __schedule+0x284/0x650 [20801.303384] schedule+0x33/0xc0 [20801.303386] io_sq_thread+0x38a/0x410 [20801.303388] ? __switch_to_asm+0x40/0x70 [20801.303390] ? wait_woken+0x80/0x80 [20801.303392] ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x17/0x40 [20801.303394] ? io_submit_sqes+0x120/0x120 [20801.303395] kthread+0x112/0x130 [20801.303396] ? kthread_create_on_node+0x60/0x60 [20801.303398] ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40 o kthread_park() waits for park completion, so io_sq_thread() loop should check kthread_should_park() along with khread_should_stop(), otherwise if kthread_park() is called before prepare_to_wait() the following schedule() never returns: CPU#0 CPU#1 io_sq_thread_stop(): io_sq_thread(): while(!kthread_should_stop() && !ctx->sqo_stop) { ctx->sqo_stop = 1; kthread_park() prepare_to_wait(); if (kthread_should_stop() { } schedule(); <<< nobody checks park flag, <<< so schedule and never return o if the flag ctx->sqo_stop is observed by the io_sq_thread() loop it is quite possible, that kthread_should_park() check and the following kthread_parkme() is never called, because kthread_park() has not been yet called, but few moments later is is called and waits there for park completion, which never happens, because kthread has already exited: CPU#0 CPU#1 io_sq_thread_stop(): io_sq_thread(): ctx->sqo_stop = 1; while(!kthread_should_stop() && !ctx->sqo_stop) { <<< observe sqo_stop and exit the loop } if (kthread_should_park()) kthread_parkme(); <<< never called, since was <<< never parked kthread_park() <<< waits forever for park completion In the current patch we quit the loop by only kthread_should_park() check (kthread_park() is synchronous, so kthread_should_stop() is never observed), and we abandon ->sqo_stop flag, since it is racy. At the end of the io_sq_thread() we unconditionally call parmke(), since we've exited the loop by the park flag.
