From: Duoming Zhou <duoming@zju.edu.cn> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.122 commit ffe9440d698274c6462d2e304562c6ddfc8c84df category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5W6OE Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 4d378f2ae58138d4c55684e1d274e7dd94aa6524 ] There is a deadlock in oxu_bus_suspend(), which is shown below: (Thread 1) | (Thread 2) | timer_action() oxu_bus_suspend() | mod_timer() spin_lock_irq() //(1) | (wait a time) ... | oxu_watchdog() del_timer_sync() | spin_lock_irq() //(2) (wait timer to stop) | ... We hold oxu->lock in position (1) of thread 1, and use del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler also need oxu->lock in position (2) of thread 2. As a result, oxu_bus_suspend() will block forever. This patch extracts del_timer_sync() from the protection of spin_lock_irq(), which could let timer handler to obtain the needed lock.
