Subject: [REPORT] syscall reboot + umh + firmware fallback

+cc mcgrof@...nel.org (firmware)
+cc holt@....com (syscall reboot)

Hi Luis, Robin and folks,

I'm developing a tool for lockup detection, DETP(Dependency Tracker).
I got a DEPT report from Hyeonggon - Thanks, Hyeonggon!

It doesn't mean the code *definitely* has a deadlock. However, it looks
problematic to me. So I'd like to ask things to see if it is actually.

Because Hyeonggon didn't run decode_stacktrace.sh before sending it to
me, I don't have a report having a better debugging information. But I
can explain it in this mail. The problematic scenario looks like:


PROCESS A	PROCESS B	WORKER C

__do_sys_reboot()
		__do_sys_reboot()
 mutex_lock(&system_transition_mutex)
 ...		 mutex_lock(&system_transition_mutex) <- stuck
		 ...
				request_firmware_work_func()
				 _request_firmware()
				  firmware_fallback_sysfs()
				   usermodehelper_read_lock_wait()
				    down_read(&umhelper_sem)
				   ...
				   fw_load_sysfs_fallback()
				    fw_sysfs_wait_timeout()
				     wait_for_completion_killable_timeout(&fw_st->completion) <- stuck
 kernel_halt()
  __usermodehelper_disable()
   down_write(&umhelper_sem) <- stuck

--------------------------------------------------------
All the 3 contexts are stuck at this point.
--------------------------------------------------------

PROCESS A	PROCESS B	WORKER C

   ...
   up_write(&umhelper_sem)
 ...
 mutex_unlock(&system_transition_mutex) <- cannot wake up B

		 ...
		 kernel_halt()
		  notifier_call_chain()
		   hw_shutdown_notify()
		    kill_pending_fw_fallback_reqs()
		     __fw_load_abort()
		      complete_all(&fw_st->completion) <- cannot wake up C

				   ...
				   usermodeheler_read_unlock()
				    up_read(&umhelper_sem) <- cannot wake up A


So I think this scenario is problematic. Or am I missing something here?
Or do you think it's okay because the wait_for_completion_*() has a
timeout? AFAIK, timeouts are not supposed to fire in normal cases.

It'd be appreciated if you share your opinion on the report.
