Subject: Re: possible deadlock in display_open
Date: Mon, 25 Apr 2022 14:29:26 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5a06c7f1-9a29-99e4-c700-fec3f09509d2@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <00000000000043b599058faf0145@google.com>
Since usb_register_dev() from imon_init_display() from imon_probe() holds
minor_rwsem while display_open() which holds driver_lock and ictx->lock is
called with minor_rwsem held from usb_open(), holding driver_lock or
ictx->lock when calling usb_register_dev() causes circular locking
dependency problem.
Since usb_deregister_dev() from imon_disconnect() holds minor_rwsem while
display_open() which holds driver_lock is called with minor_rwsem held,
holding driver_lock when calling usb_deregister_dev() also causes circular
locking dependency problem.
But actually do we need to hold these locks?
Could you explain possible race scenario if we do below?
