serial: 8250: change lock order in serial8250_do_startup()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
We have a number of "uart.port->desc.lock vs desc.lock->uart.port"
lockdep reports coming from 8250 driver; this causes a bit of trouble
to people, so let's fix it.

The problem is reverse lock order in two different call paths:

chain #1:

 serial8250_do_startup()
  spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock);
   disable_irq_nosync(port->irq);
    raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&desc->lock)

chain #2:

  __report_bad_irq()
   raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&desc->lock)
    for_each_action_of_desc()
     printk()
      spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock);

Fix this by changing the order of locks in serial8250_do_startup():
 do disable_irq_nosync() first, which grabs desc->lock, and grab
 uart->port after that, so that chain #1 and chain #2 have same lock
 order.

Full lockdep splat:

 ======================================================

 swapper/0/0 is trying to acquire lock:
 ffffffffab65b6c0 (console_owner){-...}, at: console_lock_spinning_enable+0x31/0x57

 but task is already holding lock:
 ffff88810a8e34c0 (&irq_desc_lock_class){-.-.}, at: __report_bad_irq+0x5b/0xba

 which lock already depends on the new lock.

 the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

 other info that might help us debug this:

 Chain exists of:
   console_owner --> &port_lock_key --> &irq_desc_lock_class

  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0                    CPU1
        ----                    ----
   lock(&irq_desc_lock_class);
                                lock(&port_lock_key);
                                lock(&irq_desc_lock_class);
   lock(console_owner);
