This patch moves the final part of the cifsFileInfo_put() logic where we need a write lock on lock_sem to be processed in a separate thread that holds no other locks. This is to prevent deadlocks like the one below: > there are 6 processes looping to while trying to down_write > cinode->lock_sem, 5 of them from _cifsFileInfo_put, and one from > cifs_new_fileinfo > > and there are 5 other processes which are blocked, several of them > waiting on either PG_writeback or PG_locked (which are both set), all > for the same page of the file > > 2 inode_lock() (inode->i_rwsem) for the file > 1 wait_on_page_writeback() for the page > 1 down_read(inode->i_rwsem) for the inode of the directory > 1 inode_lock()(inode->i_rwsem) for the inode of the directory > 1 __lock_page > > > so processes are blocked waiting on: > page flags PG_locked and PG_writeback for one specific page > inode->i_rwsem for the directory > inode->i_rwsem for the file > cifsInodeInflock_sem > > > > here are the more gory details (let me know if I need to provide > anything more/better): > > [0 00:48:22.765] [UN] PID: 8863 TASK: ffff8c691547c5c0 CPU: 3 > COMMAND:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
