2011-12-22Bluetooth: Fix deadlocks with sock lock and L2CAP timers locksUlisses Furquim1-8/+21
When cancelling a delayed work (timer) in L2CAP we can not sleep holding the sock mutex otherwise we might deadlock with an L2CAP timer handler. This is possible because RX/TX and L2CAP timers run in different workqueues. The scenario below illustrates the problem. Thus we are now avoiding to sleep on the timers locks. ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.1.0-05270-ga978dc7-dirty #239 ------------------------------------------------------- kworker/1:1/873 is trying to acquire lock: (sk_lock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_L2CAP){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffffa002ceac>] l2cap_chan_timeout+0x3c/0xe0 [bluetooth] but task is already holding lock: ((&(&chan->chan_timer)->work)){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff81051a86>] process_one_work+0x126/0x450 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 ((&(&chan->chan_timer)->work)){+.+...}: [<ffffffff8106b276>] check_prevs_add+0xf6/0x170 [<ffffffff8106b903>] validate_chain+0x613/0x790 [<ffffffff8106dfee>] __lock_acquire+0x4be/0xac0 [<ffffffff8106ec2d>] lock_acquire+0x8d/0xb0 [<ffffffff81052a6f>] wait_on_work+0x4f/0x160 [<ffffffff81052ca3>] __cancel_work_timer+0x73/0x80 [<ffffffff81052cbd>] cancel_delayed_work_sync+0xd/0x10 [<ffffffffa002f2ed>] l2cap_chan_connect+0x22d/0x470 [bluetooth] [<ffffffffa002fb51>] l2cap_sock_connect+0xb1/0x140 [bluetooth] [<ffffffff8130811b>] kernel_connect+0xb/0x10 [<ffffffffa00cf98a>] rfcomm_session_create+0x12a/0x1c0 [rfcomm] [<ffffffffa00cfbe7>] __rfcomm_dlc_open+0x1c7/0x240 [rfcomm] [<ffffffffa00d07c2>] rfcomm_dlc_open+0x42/0x70 [rfcomm] [<ffffffffa00d3b03>] rfcomm_sock_connect+0x103/0x150 [rfcomm] [<ffffffff8130bd7e>] sys_connect+0xae/0xc0 [<ffffffff813368d2>] compat_sys_socketcall+0xb2/0x220 [<ffffffff813b2089>] sysenter_dispatch+0x7/0x30 -> #0 (sk_lock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_L2CAP){+.+...}: [<ffffffff8106b16d>] check_prev_add+0x6cd/0x6e0 [<ffffffff8106b276>] check_prevs_add+0xf6/0x170 [<ffffffff8106b903>] validate_chain+0x613/0x790 [<ffffffff8106dfee>] __lock_acquire+0x4be/0xac0 [<ffffffff8106ec2d>] lock_acquire+0x8d/0xb0 [<ffffffff8130d91a>] lock_sock_nested+0x8a/0xa0 [<ffffffffa002ceac>] l2cap_chan_timeout+0x3c/0xe0 [bluetooth] [<ffffffff81051ae4>] process_one_work+0x184/0x450 [<ffffffff8105276e>] worker_thread+0x15e/0x340 [<ffffffff81057bb6>] kthread+0x96/0xa0 [<ffffffff813b1ef4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock((&(&chan->chan_timer)->work)); lock(sk_lock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_L2CAP); lock((&(&chan->chan_timer)->work)); lock(sk_lock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_L2CAP); *** DEADLOCK *** 2 locks held by kworker/1:1/873: #0: (events){.+.+.+}, at: [<ffffffff81051a86>] process_one_work+0x126/0x450 #1: ((&(&chan->chan_timer)->work)){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff81051a86>] process_one_work+0x126/0x450 stack backtrace: Pid: 873, comm: kworker/1:1 Not tainted 3.1.0-05270-ga978dc7-dirty #239 Call Trace: [<ffffffff813a0f6e>] print_circular_bug+0xd2/0xe3 [<ffffffff8106b16d>] check_prev_add+0x6cd/0x6e0 [<ffffffff8106b276>] check_prevs_add+0xf6/0x170 [<ffffffff8106b903>] validate_chain+0x613/0x790 [<ffffffff8106dfee>] __lock_acquire+0x4be/0xac0 [<ffffffff8130d8f6>] ? lock_sock_nested+0x66/0xa0 [<ffffffff8106ea30>] ? lock_release_nested+0x100/0x110 [<ffffffff8130d8f6>] ? lock_sock_nested+0x66/0xa0 [<ffffffff8106ec2d>] lock_acquire+0x8d/0xb0 [<ffffffffa002ceac>] ? l2cap_chan_timeout+0x3c/0xe0 [bluetooth] [<ffffffff8130d91a>] lock_sock_nested+0x8a/0xa0 [<ffffffffa002ceac>] ? l2cap_chan_timeout+0x3c/0xe0 [bluetooth] [<ffffffff81051a86>] ? process_one_work+0x126/0x450 [<ffffffffa002ceac>] l2cap_chan_timeout+0x3c/0xe0 [bluetooth] [<ffffffff81051ae4>] process_one_work+0x184/0x450 [<ffffffff81051a86>] ? process_one_work+0x126/0x450 [<ffffffffa002ce70>] ? l2cap_security_cfm+0x4e0/0x4e0 [bluetooth] [<ffffffff8105276e>] worker_thread+0x15e/0x340 [<ffffffff81052610>] ? manage_workers+0x110/0x110 [<ffffffff81057bb6>] kthread+0x96/0xa0 [<ffffffff813b1ef4>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [<ffffffff813af69d>] ? retint_restore_args+0xe/0xe [<ffffffff81057b20>] ? __init_kthread_worker+0x70/0x70 [<ffffffff813b1ef0>] ? gs_change+0xb/0xb Signed-off-by: Ulisses Furquim <ulisses@profusion.mobi> Acked-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org> Signed-off-by: Gustavo F.

2011-12-19sctp: fix incorrect overflow check on autocloseXi Wang1-0/+4
Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for limiting the autoclose value. If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set to 0xffffffff. This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions. 1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ. 2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch). 3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and getsockopt() calls.

2011-12-16cfg80211: allow following country IE power for custom regdom cardsLuis R. Rodriguez1-1/+3
By definition WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY was intended to allow the wiphy to adjust itself to the country IE power information if the card had no regulatory data but we had no way to tell cfg80211 that if the card also had its own custom regulatory domain (these are typically custom world regulatory domains) that we want to follow the country IE's noted values for power for each channel. We add support for this and document it. This is not a critical fix but a performance optimization for cards with custom regulatory domains that associate to an AP with sends out country IEs with a higher EIRP than the one on the custom regulatory domain. In practice the only driver affected right now are the Atheros drivers as they are the only drivers using both WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY and WIPHY_FLAG_CUSTOM_REGULATORY -- used on cards that have an Atheros world regulatory domain. Cards that have been programmed to follow a country specifically will not follow the country IE power. So although not a stable fix distributions should consider cherry picking this.
