Subject: [PATCH 2/2] genirq: Move prio assignment into the newly created thread
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2020 12:38:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201110113848.801379-3-bigeasy@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201110113848.801379-1-bigeasy@linutronix.de>
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
With enabled threaded interrupts the nouveau driver reported the
following:
| Chain exists of:
| &mm->mmap_lock#2 --> &device->mutex --> &cpuset_rwsem
|
| Possible unsafe locking scenario:
|
| CPU0 CPU1
| ---- ----
| lock(&cpuset_rwsem);
| lock(&device->mutex);
| lock(&cpuset_rwsem);
| lock(&mm->mmap_lock#2);
The device->mutex is nvkm_device::mutex.
Unblocking the lockchain at `cpuset_rwsem' is probably the easiest thing
to do.
Move the priority assignment to the start of the newly created thread.
Fixes: 710da3c8ea7df ("sched/core: Prevent race condition between cpuset and __sched_setscheduler()")
