----------------------------------------------

[ Upstream commit 01daccf748323dfc61112f474cf2ba81015446b0 ]

In following scenario(diagram), when one thread X running dev_coredumpm() adds devcd device to the framework which sends uevent notification to userspace and another thread Y reads this uevent and call to devcd_data_write() which eventually try to delete the queued timer that is not initialized/queued yet.

So, debug object reports some warning and in the meantime, timer is initialized and queued from X path. and from Y path, it gets reinitialized again and timer->entry.pprev=NULL and try_to_grab_pending() stucks.

To fix this, introduce mutex and a boolean flag to serialize the behaviour.

cpu0(X) cpu1(Y)

dev_coredump() uevent sent to user space device_add() ======================> user space process Y reads the uevents writes to devcd fd which results into writes to

devcd_data_write() mod_delayed_work() try_to_grab_pending() del_timer() debug_assert_init() INIT_DELAYED_WORK() schedule_delayed_work() debug_object_fixup() timer_fixup_assert_init() timer_setup() do_init_timer() /* Above call reinitializes the timer to timer->entry.pprev=NULL and this will be checked later in timer_pending() call. */ timer_pending() !hlist_unhashed_lockless(&timer->entry) !h->pprev /* del_timer() checks h->pprev and finds it to be NULL due to which try_to_grab_pending() stucks. */
