Subject: [PATCH] userfaultfd: disable irqs when taking the waitqueue lock
Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2018 17:41:01 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181018154101.18750-1-hch@lst.de> (raw)
userfaultfd contains howe-grown locking of the waitqueue lock,
and does not disable interrupts. This relies on the fact that
no one else takes it from interrupt context and violates an
invariat of the normal waitqueue locking scheme. With aio poll
it is easy to trigger other locks that disable interrupts (or
are called from interrupt context).
