Subject: [PATCH net] bonding: Fix deadlock in bonding driver when using netpoll
Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2014 12:06:40 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <52FAF350.80005@huawei.com> (raw)
The bonding driver take write locks and spin locks that are shared
by the tx path in enslave processing and notification processing,
If the netconsole is in use, the bonding can call printk which puts
us in the netpoll tx path, if the netconsole is attached to the bonding
driver, result in deadlock.
So add protection for these place, by checking the netpoll_block_tx
state, we can defer the sending of the netconsole frames until a later
time using the retransmit feature of netpoll_send_skb that is triggered
on the return code NETDEV_TX_BUSY.
