Subject: [PATCH 3.17 03/25] team: avoid race condition in scheduling delayed work
Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2014 04:24:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141013022454.429780782@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20141013022454.289398272@linuxfoundation.org>

3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Joe Lawrence <Joe.Lawrence@stratus.com>

[ Upstream commit 47549650abd13d873fd2e5fc218db19e21031074 ]

When team_notify_peers and team_mcast_rejoin are called, they both reset
their respective .count_pending atomic variable. Then when the actual
worker function is executed, the variable is atomically decremented.
This pattern introduces a potential race condition where the
.count_pending rolls over and the worker function keeps rescheduling
until .count_pending decrements to zero again:

THREAD 1                           THREAD 2

========                           ========
team_notify_peers(teamX)
  atomic_set count_pending = 1
  schedule_delayed_work
                                   team_notify_peers(teamX)
                                   atomic_set count_pending = 1
team_notify_peers_work
  atomic_dec_and_test
    count_pending = 0
  (return)
                                   schedule_delayed_work
                                   team_notify_peers_work
                                   atomic_dec_and_test
                                     count_pending = -1
                                   schedule_delayed_work
                                   (repeat until count_pending = 0)

Instead of assigning a new value to .count_pending, use atomic_add to
tack-on the additional desired worker function invocations.
