[PATCH 3.10 41/45] nfsd: Fix slot wake up race in the nfsv4.1 callback code

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Dec 05 2014 - 18:08:03 EST


3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c6c15e1ed303ffc47e696ea1c9a9df1761c1f603 upstream.

The currect code for nfsd41_cb_get_slot() and nfsd4_cb_done() has no
locking in order to guarantee atomicity, and so allows for races of
the form.

Task 1 Task 2
====== ======
if (test_and_set_bit(0) != 0) {
clear_bit(0)
rpc_wake_up_next(queue)
rpc_sleep_on(queue)
return false;
}

This patch breaks the race condition by adding a retest of the bit
after the call to rpc_sleep_on().
