From 47c397844869ad0e6738afb5879c7492f4691122 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Niklas Schnelle schnelle@linux.ibm.com Date: Thu, 22 May 2025 14:13:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] s390/pci: Prevent self deletion in disable_slot()
As disable_slot() takes a struct zpci_dev from the Configured to the Standby state. In Standby there is still a hotplug slot so this is not usually a case of sysfs self deletion. This is important because self deletion gets very hairy in terms of locking (see for example recover_store() in arch/s390/pci/pci_sysfs.c).
Because the pci_dev_put() is not within the critical section of the zdev->state_lock however, disable_slot() can turn into a case of self deletion if zPCI device event handling slips between the mutex_unlock() and the pci_dev_put(). If the latter is the last put and zpci_release_device() is called this then tries to remove the hotplug slot via zpci_exit_slot() which will try to remove the hotplug slot directory the disable_slot() is part of i.e. self deletion.
Prevent this by widening the zdev->state_lock critical section to include the pci_dev_put() which is then guaranteed to happen with the struct zpci_dev still in Standby state ensuring it will not lead to a zpci_release_device() call as at least the zPCI event handling code still holds a reference.
