kernfs: cache atomic_write_len in kernfs_open_file
While implementing atomic_write_len, 4d3773c4bb41 ("kernfs: implement kernfs_ops->atomic_write_len") moved data copy from userland inside kernfs_get_active() and kernfs_open_file->mutex so that kernfs_ops->atomic_write_len can be accessed before copying buffer from userland; unfortunately, this could lead to locking order inversion involving mmap_sem if copy_from_user() takes a page fault. ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.14.0-rc4-next-20140228-sasha-00011-g4077c67-dirty #26 Tainted: G W ------------------------------------------------------- trinity-c236/10658 is trying to acquire lock: (&of->mutex#2){+.+.+.}, at: [<fs/kernfs/file.c:487>] kernfs_fop_mmap+0x54/0x120 but task is already holding lock: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<mm/util.c:397>] vm_mmap_pgoff+0x6e/0xe0 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}: [<kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1945 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:2131>] validate_chain+0x6c5/0x7b0 [<kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3182>] __lock_acquire+0x4cd/0x5a0 [<arch/x86/include/asm/current.h:14 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3602>] lock_acquire+0x182/0x1d0 [<mm/memory.c:4188>] might_fault+0x7e/0xb0 [<arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h:713 fs/kernfs/file.c:291>] kernfs_fop_write+0xd8/0x190 [<fs/read_write.c:473>] vfs_write+0xe3/0x1d0 [<fs/read_write.c:523 fs/read_write.c:515>] SyS_write+0x5d/0xa0 [<arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:749>] tracesys+0xdd/0xe2 -> #0 (&of->mutex#2){+.+.+.}: [<kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1840>] check_prev_add+0x13f/0x560 [<kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1945 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:2131>] validate_chain+0x6c5/0x7b0 [<kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3182>] __lock_acquire+0x4cd/0x5a0 [<arch/x86/include/asm/current.h:14 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3602>] lock_acquire+0x182/0x1d0 [<kernel/locking/mutex.c:470 kernel/locking/mutex.c:571>] mutex_lock_nested+0x6a/0x510 [<fs/kernfs/file.c:487>] kernfs_fop_mmap+0x54/0x120 [<mm/mmap.c:1573>] mmap_region+0x310/0x5c0 [<mm/mmap.c:1365>] do_mmap_pgoff+0x385/0x430 [<mm/util.c:399>] vm_mmap_pgoff+0x8f/0xe0 [<mm/mmap.c:1416 mm/mmap.c:1374>] SyS_mmap_pgoff+0x1b0/0x210 [<arch/x86/kernel/sys_x86_64.c:72>] SyS_mmap+0x1d/0x20 [<arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:749>] tracesys+0xdd/0xe2 other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&mm->mmap_sem); lock(&of->mutex#2); lock(&mm->mmap_sem); lock(&of->mutex#2); *** DEADLOCK *** 1 lock held by trinity-c236/10658: #0: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<mm/util.c:397>] vm_mmap_pgoff+0x6e/0xe0 stack backtrace: CPU: 2 PID: 10658 Comm: trinity-c236 Tainted: G W 3.14.0-rc4-next-20140228-sasha-00011-g4077c67-dirty #26 0000000000000000 ffff88011911fa48 ffffffff8438e945 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 ffff88011911fa98 ffffffff811a0109 ffff88011911fab8 ffff88011911fab8 ffff88011911fa98 ffff880119128cc0 ffff880119128cf8 Call Trace: [<lib/dump_stack.c:52>] dump_stack+0x52/0x7f [<kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1213>] print_circular_bug+0x129/0x160 [<kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1840>] check_prev_add+0x13f/0x560 [<include/linux/spinlock.h:343 mm/slub.c:1933>] ? deactivate_slab+0x511/0x550 [<kernel/locking/lockdep.c:1945 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:2131>] validate_chain+0x6c5/0x7b0 [<kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3182>] __lock_acquire+0x4cd/0x5a0 [<mm/mmap.c:1552>] ? mmap_region+0x24a/0x5c0 [<arch/x86/include/asm/current.h:14 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3602>] lock_acquire+0x182/0x1d0 [<fs/kernfs/file.c:487>] ? kernfs_fop_mmap+0x54/0x120 [<kernel/locking/mutex.c:470 kernel/locking/mutex.c:571>] mutex_lock_nested+0x6a/0x510 [<fs/kernfs/file.c:487>] ? kernfs_fop_mmap+0x54/0x120 [<kernel/sched/core.c:2477>] ? get_parent_ip+0x11/0x50 [<fs/kernfs/file.c:487>] ? kernfs_fop_mmap+0x54/0x120 [<fs/kernfs/file.c:487>] kernfs_fop_mmap+0x54/0x120 [<mm/mmap.c:1573>] mmap_region+0x310/0x5c0 [<mm/mmap.c:1365>] do_mmap_pgoff+0x385/0x430 [<mm/util.c:397>] ? vm_mmap_pgoff+0x6e/0xe0 [<mm/util.c:399>] vm_mmap_pgoff+0x8f/0xe0 [<kernel/rcu/update.c:97>] ? __rcu_read_unlock+0x44/0xb0 [<fs/file.c:641>] ? dup_fd+0x3c0/0x3c0 [<mm/mmap.c:1416 mm/mmap.c:1374>] SyS_mmap_pgoff+0x1b0/0x210 [<arch/x86/kernel/sys_x86_64.c:72>] SyS_mmap+0x1d/0x20 [<arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:749>] tracesys+0xdd/0xe2 Fix it by caching atomic_write_len in kernfs_open_file during open so that it can be determined without accessing kernfs_ops in kernfs_fop_write().
