Subject: [PATCH] mm/damon/reclaim: schedule 'damon_reclaim_timer' only after 'system_wq' is initialized
Date: Sat,  4 Jun 2022 19:50:51 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220604195051.1589-1-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220604192222.1488-1-sj@kernel.org>

Commit 059342d1dd4e ("mm/damon/reclaim: fix the timer always stays
active") made DAMON_RECLAIM's 'enabled' parameter store callback,
'enabled_store()', to schedule 'damon_reclaim_timer'.  The scheduling
uses 'system_wq', which is initialized in 'workqueue_init_early()'.  As
kernel parameters parsing function ('parse_args()') is called before
'workqueue_init_early()', 'enabled_store()' can be executed before
'workqueue_init_early()' and end up accessing the uninitialized
'system_wq'.  As a result, the booting hang[1].  This commit fixes the
issue by checking if the initialization is done before scheduling the
timer.
