From 24b8b44780a2c53ecb738f4a1c08d114f5eda27c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Tucker Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2008 11:05:41 -0500 Subject: svcrdma: Fix race between svc_rdma_recvfrom thread and the dto_tasklet RDMA_READ completions are kept on a separate queue from the general I/O request queue. Since a separate lock is used to protect the RDMA_READ completion queue, a race exists between the dto_tasklet and the svc_rdma_recvfrom thread where the dto_tasklet sets the XPT_DATA bit and adds I/O to the read-completion queue. Concurrently, the recvfrom thread checks the generic queue, finds it empty and resets the XPT_DATA bit. A subsequent svc_xprt_enqueue will fail to enqueue the transport for I/O and cause the transport to "stall". The fix is to protect both lists with the same lock and set the XPT_DATA bit with this lock held. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker Signed-off-by: J.
