From 9fb0db40513e27537fde63287aea920b60557a69 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paulo Alcantara Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2023 19:00:37 -0300 Subject: cifs: fix potential deadlock in cache_refresh_path() MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Avoid getting DFS referral from an exclusive lock in cache_refresh_path() because the tcon IPC used for getting the referral could be disconnected and thus causing a deadlock as shown below: task A task B ====== ====== cifs_demultiplex_thread() dfs_cache_find() cifs_handle_standard() cache_refresh_path() reconnect_dfs_server() down_write() dfs_cache_noreq_find() get_dfs_referral() down_read() <- deadlock smb2_get_dfs_refer() SMB2_ioctl() cifs_send_recv() compound_send_recv() wait_for_response() where task A cannot wake up task B because it is blocked on down_read() due to the exclusive lock held in cache_refresh_path() and therefore not being able to make progress.
