From: Xiaoguang Wang <xiaoguang.wang@linux.alibaba.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-5.7-rc4 commit 3fd44c86711f71156b586c22b0495c58f69358bb category: feature bugzilla: https://bugzilla.openeuler.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27 CVE: NA --------------------------- While working on to make io_uring sqpoll mode support syscalls that need struct files_struct, I got cpu soft lockup in io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill(), while (ctx->sqo_thread && !wq_has_sleeper(&ctx->sqo_wait)) cpu_relax(); above loop never has an chance to exit, it's because preempt isn't enabled in the kernel, and the context calling io_ring_ctx_wait_and_kill() and io_sq_thread() run in the same cpu, if io_sq_thread calls a cond_resched() yield cpu and another context enters above loop, then io_sq_thread() will always in runqueue and never exit. Use cond_resched() can fix this issue.
