2017-07-15locking/rwsem-spinlock: Fix EINTR branch in __down_write_common()Kirill Tkhai
commit a0c4acd2c220376b4e9690e75782d0c0afdaab9f upstream. If a writer could been woken up, the above branch if (sem->count == 0) break; would have moved us to taking the sem. So, it's not the time to wake a writer now, and only readers are allowed now. Thus, 0 must be passed to __rwsem_do_wake(). Next, __rwsem_do_wake() wakes readers unconditionally. But we mustn't do that if the sem is owned by writer in the moment. Otherwise, writer and reader own the sem the same time, which leads to memory corruption in callers. rwsem-xadd.c does not need that, as: 1) the similar check is made lockless there, 2) in __rwsem_mark_wake::try_reader_grant we test, that sem is not owned by writer.

2017-03-22locking/rwsem: Fix down_write_killable() for CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK=yNiklas Cassel
commit 17fcbd590d0c3e35bd9646e2215f86586378bc42 upstream. We hang if SIGKILL has been sent, but the task is stuck in down_read() (after do_exit()), even though no task is doing down_write() on the rwsem in question: INFO: task libupnp:21868 blocked for more than 120 seconds. libupnp D 0 21868 1 0x08100008 ... Call Trace: __schedule() schedule() __down_read() do_exit() do_group_exit() __wake_up_parent() This bug has already been fixed for CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM=y in the following commit: 04cafed7fc19 ("locking/rwsem: Fix down_write_killable()") ... however, this bug also exists for CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK=y.

2016-04-13locking/rwsem: Introduce basis for down_write_killable()Michal Hocko
Introduce a generic implementation necessary for down_write_killable(). This is a trivial extension of the already existing down_write() call which can be interrupted by SIGKILL. This patch doesn't provide down_write_killable() yet because arches have to provide the necessary pieces before. rwsem_down_write_failed() which is a generic slow path for the write lock is extended to take a task state and renamed to __rwsem_down_write_failed_common(). The return value is either a valid semaphore pointer or ERR_PTR(-EINTR). rwsem_down_write_failed_killable() is exported as a new way to wait for the lock and be killable. For rwsem-spinlock implementation the current __down_write() it updated in a similar way as __rwsem_down_write_failed_common() except it doesn't need new exports just visible __down_write_killable(). Architectures which are not using the generic rwsem implementation are supposed to provide their __down_write_killable() implementation and use rwsem_down_write_failed_killable() for the slow path.

2016-04-13locking/rwsem: Get rid of __down_write_nested()Michal Hocko
This is no longer used anywhere and all callers (__down_write()) use 0 as a subclass. Ditch __down_write_nested() to make the code easier to follow. This shouldn't introduce any functional change.

The need for the smp_mb() in __rwsem_do_wake() should be properly documented. Applies to both xadd and spinlock variants.

2014-07-16locking/rwsem: Rename 'activity' to 'count'Peter Zijlstra
There are two definitions of struct rw_semaphore, one in linux/rwsem.h and one in linux/rwsem-spinlock.h. For some reason they have different names for the initial field. This makes it impossible to use C99 named initialization for __RWSEM_INITIALIZER() -- or we have to duplicate that entire thing along with the structure definitions. The simpler patch is renaming the rwsem-spinlock variant to match the regular rwsem. This allows us to switch to C99 named initialization.
