Subject: [PATCH v2] lib: Make radix_tree_node_alloc() work correctly within interrupt
With users of radix_tree_preload() run from interrupt (block/blk-ioc.c
is one such possible user), the following race can happen:
radix_tree_preload()
...
radix_tree_insert()
radix_tree_node_alloc()
if (rtp->nr) {
ret = rtp->nodes[rtp->nr - 1];
<interrupt>
...
radix_tree_preload()
...
radix_tree_insert()
radix_tree_node_alloc()
if (rtp->nr) {
ret = rtp->nodes[rtp->nr - 1];
And we give out one radix tree node twice. That clearly results in radix
tree corruption with different results (usually OOPS) depending on which
two users of radix tree race.
We fix the problem by making radix_tree_node_alloc() always allocate
fresh radix tree nodes when in interrupt. Using preloading when in
interrupt doesn't make sence since all the allocations have to be atomic
anyway and we cannot steal nodes from process-context users because some
users rely on radix_tree_insert() succeeding after radix_tree_preload().
in_interrupt() check is somewhat ugly but we cannot simply key off
passed gfp_mask as that is acquired from root_gfp_mask() and thus
the same for all preload users.
Another part of the fix is to avoid node preallocation in
radix_tree_preload() when passed gfp_mask doesn't allow waiting. Again,
preallocation in such case doesn't make sence and when preallocation
would happen in interrupt we could possibly leak some allocated nodes.
However, some users of radix_tree_preload() require following
radix_tree_insert() to succeed. To avoid unexpected effects for these
users, radix_tree_preload() only warns if passed gfp mask doesn't allow
waiting and we provide a new function radix_tree_maybe_preload() for
those users which get different gfp mask from different call sites and
which are prepared to handle radix_tree_insert() failure.
