[media] media: rc: fix deadlock when module ir_lirc_codec is removed When removing module ir_lirc_codec I got this deadlock warning. Fix this by introducing a separate mutex to protect access to available_protocols instead of using ir_raw_handler_lock for this purpose. ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 4.7.0-next-20160729 #1 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------- rmmod/2542 is trying to acquire lock: (&dev->lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa03b1267>] ir_raw_handler_unregister+0x77/0xd0 [rc_core] but task is already holding lock: (ir_raw_handler_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa03b1212>] ir_raw_handler_unregister+0x22/0xd0 [rc_core] which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (ir_raw_handler_lock){+.+.+.}: [<ffffffff810ab1f2>] lock_acquire+0xb2/0x1e0 [<ffffffff815c087f>] mutex_lock_nested+0x5f/0x360 [<ffffffffa03b1403>] ir_raw_get_allowed_protocols+0x13/0x30 [rc_core] [<ffffffffa03af8ea>] store_protocols+0x2fa/0x480 [rc_core] [<ffffffff8143e143>] dev_attr_store+0x13/0x20 [<ffffffff81213c50>] sysfs_kf_write+0x40/0x50 [<ffffffff81212f60>] kernfs_fop_write+0x150/0x1e0 [<ffffffff81197613>] __vfs_write+0x23/0x120 [<ffffffff81198740>] vfs_write+0xb0/0x190 [<ffffffff81199a34>] SyS_write+0x44/0xa0 [<ffffffff815c55a5>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x18/0xa8 -> #0 (&dev->lock){+.+.+.}: [<ffffffff810aac8c>] __lock_acquire+0x10fc/0x1270 [<ffffffff810ab1f2>] lock_acquire+0xb2/0x1e0 [<ffffffff815c087f>] mutex_lock_nested+0x5f/0x360 [<ffffffffa03b1267>] ir_raw_handler_unregister+0x77/0xd0 [rc_core] [<ffffffffa03c8c05>] ir_lirc_codec_exit+0x10/0x12 [ir_lirc_codec] [<ffffffff810e1b88>] SyS_delete_module+0x168/0x220 [<ffffffff815c55a5>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x18/0xa8 other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(ir_raw_handler_lock); lock(&dev->lock); lock(ir_raw_handler_lock); lock(&dev->lock); *** DEADLOCK *** 1 lock held by rmmod/2542: #0: (ir_raw_handler_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa03b1212>] ir_raw_handler_unregister+0x22/0xd0 [rc_core] stack backtrace: CPU: 0 PID: 2542 Comm: rmmod Not tainted 4.7.0-next-20160729 #1 Hardware name: ZOTAC ZBOX-CI321NANO/ZBOX-CI321NANO, BIOS B246P105 06/01/2015 0000000000000000 ffff88006e607cc0 ffffffff812715f5 ffffffff8232b230 ffffffff8232b230 ffff88006e607d00 ffffffff810a846e 00000000790107f0 ffff880079010818 ffff8800790107f0 1efeb9f4f0dd2e6f ffff880079010000 Call Trace: [<ffffffff812715f5>] dump_stack+0x68/0x93 [<ffffffff810a846e>] print_circular_bug+0x1be/0x210 [<ffffffff810aac8c>] __lock_acquire+0x10fc/0x1270 [<ffffffff810bcead>] ? debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled+0x1d/0x20 [<ffffffff810ab1f2>] lock_acquire+0xb2/0x1e0 [<ffffffffa03b1267>] ? ir_raw_handler_unregister+0x77/0xd0 [rc_core] [<ffffffff815c087f>] mutex_lock_nested+0x5f/0x360 [<ffffffffa03b1267>] ? ir_raw_handler_unregister+0x77/0xd0 [rc_core] [<ffffffff810a980e>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0xee/0x1b0 [<ffffffffa03b1267>] ir_raw_handler_unregister+0x77/0xd0 [rc_core] [<ffffffffa03c8c05>] ir_lirc_codec_exit+0x10/0x12 [ir_lirc_codec] [<ffffffff810e1b88>] SyS_delete_module+0x168/0x220 [<ffffffff815c55a5>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x18/0xa8 Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
