Subject: [PATCH, RESEND] procfs: silence lockdep warning about read vs. exec seq_file
From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@...ux.intel.com>
Testcase:
cat /proc/self/maps >/dev/null
chmod +x /proc/self/net/packet
exec /proc/self/net/packet
It triggers lockdep warning:
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
3.16.0-rc7-00064-g26bcd8b72563 #8 Not tainted
-------------------------------------------------------
sh/157 is trying to acquire lock:
(&p->lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8117f4f8>] seq_read+0x38/0x3e0
but task is already holding lock:
(&sig->cred_guard_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81160018>] prepare_bprm_creds+0x28/0x90
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&sig->cred_guard_mutex);
lock(&p->lock);
lock(&sig->cred_guard_mutex);
lock(&p->lock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
1 lock held by sh/157:
#0: (&sig->cred_guard_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81160018>] prepare_bprm_creds+0x28/0x90
It's a false positive: seq files which take cred_guard_mutex are never
executable. Let's use separate lock class for them.
I don't know why we allow "chmod +x" on some proc files, notably net-related.
Is it a bug?
Also I suspect eb94cd96e05d fixes non-existing bug, like this one.
