The nested spin_unlock_irq() then enables interrupts\nwhile pool->lock is still held, so an I/O completion softirq can run on\nthe same CPU, re-acquire pool->lock (thin_endio(), or overwrite_endio()\n-> complete_mapping_preparation()) and deadlock.  lockdep reports this\nas inconsistent SOFTIRQ-ON-W to IN-SOFTIRQ-W usage.\n\nCommit 3a762de55b4e (\"block: save irq state in blkg_lookup_create()\")\nfixed the same problem while the lock lived in blkg_lookup_create(), but\ncommit 9327a865e395 (\"blk-cgroup: don't nest queue_lock under rcu in\nblkg_lookup_create()\") moved the locking into blkg_tryget_closest() and\nreverted it to spin_lock_irq().\n\nSave and restore the caller's IRQ state instead."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["block/blk-cgroup.c"],"versions":[{"version":"9327a865e395a53f67dffac4710beb1d4730495e","lessThan":"9fcf4317384ce6758c3127a6e8914c54cbb9c8cc","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"9327a865e395a53f67dffac4710beb1d4730495e","lessThan":"327c428ba79b13e4cc5253333a9d5c0aa5579bdf","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["block/blk-cgroup.c"],"versions":[{"version":"7.2","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"7.2","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.10","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"7.2","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.10"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"7.2","versionEndExcluding":"7.3"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9fcf4317384ce6758c3127a6e8914c54cbb9c8cc"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/327c428ba79b13e4cc5253333a9d5c0aa5579bdf"}],"title":"blk-cgroup: save IRQ state in blkg_tryget_closest()","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
