In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
aoe: avoid potential deadlock at set_capacity
Move set_capacity() outside of the section procected by (&d->lock).
To avoid possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
[1] lock(&bdev->bd_size_lock);
local_irq_disable();
[2] lock(&d->lock);
[3] lock(&bdev->bd_size_lock);
<Interrupt>
[4] lock(&d->lock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
Where [1](&bdev->bd_size_lock) hold by zram_add()->set_capacity().
[2]lock(&d->lock) hold by aoeblk_gdalloc(). And aoeblk_gdalloc()
is trying to acquire [3](&bdev->bd_size_lock) at set_capacity() call.
In this situation an attempt to acquire [4]lock(&d->lock) from
aoecmd_cfg_rsp() will lead to deadlock.
So the simplest solution is breaking lock dependency
[2](&d->lock) -> [3](&bdev->bd_size_lock) by moving set_capacity()
outside.
