Subject: RE: [PATCH V3 09/11] video/hyperv_fb: Avoid taking busy spinlock on
panic path
From: Guilherme G. Piccoli <gpiccoli@...lia.com> Sent: Friday, August 19, 2022 3:17 PM
>
> The Hyper-V framebuffer code registers a panic notifier in order
> to try updating its fbdev if the kernel crashed. The notifier
> callback is straightforward, but it calls the vmbus_sendpacket()
> routine eventually, and such function takes a spinlock for the
> ring buffer operations.
>
> Panic path runs in atomic context, with local interrupts and
> preemption disabled, and all secondary CPUs shutdown. That said,
> taking a spinlock might cause a lockup if a secondary CPU was
> disabled with such lock taken. Fix it here by checking if the
> ring buffer spinlock is busy on Hyper-V framebuffer panic notifier;
> if so, bail-out avoiding the potential lockup scenario.
