Trond, did you actually look at how this code works before
you made modifications to my fixes?
xprt_lock serializes sleep/wakeup sequences in the xprt code, so you
cannot remove xprt_lock from the sections where I added holding of
xprt_sock_lock to protect the state of xprt->snd_task. So for
example, this part of your patch is completely bogus and will create
new corruptions and crashes:
@@ -1143,10 +1143,10 @@
struct rpc_xprt *xprt = task->tk_rqstp->rq_xprt;
if (xprt->snd_task && xprt->snd_task == task) {
- spin_lock(&xprt_lock);
+ spin_lock_bh(&xprt_sock_lock);
xprt->snd_task = NULL;
rpc_wake_up_next(&xprt->sending);
- spin_unlock(&xprt_lock);
+ spin_unlock_bh(&xprt_sock_lock);
}
}
You _must_ hold both xprt_lock and xprt_sock_lock in this
section of code, not just one or just the other.
Linus, please do not apply this patch until these issues
are addressed.
Later,
David S. Miller
