Subject: [PATCH net] vhost_net: add missing lock nesting notation
Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2018 16:10:23 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1522051823-5166-1-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com> (raw)
We try to hold TX virtqueue mutex in vhost_net_rx_peek_head_len()
after RX virtqueue mutex is held in handle_rx(). This requires an
appropriate lock nesting notation to calm down deadlock detector.
Fixes: 0308813724606 ("vhost_net: basic polling support")
