net/smc: Fixes for race in smc link group termination
We encountered some crashes recently and they are caused by the
race between the access and free of link/link group in abnormal
smc link group termination. The crashes can be reproduced in
frequent abnormal link group termination, like setting RNICs up/down.
This set of patches tries to fix this by extending the life cycle
of link/link group to ensure that they won't be referred to after
cleared or freed.
v1 -> v2:
- Improve some comments.
- Move codes of waking up lgrs_deleted wait queue from smc_lgr_free()
to __smc_lgr_free().
- Move codes of waking up links_deleted wait queue from smcr_link_clear()
to __smcr_link_clear().
- Move codes of smc_ibdev_cnt_dec() and put_device() from smcr_link_clear()
to __smcr_link_clear()
- Move smc_lgr_put() to the end of __smcr_link_clear().
- Call smc_lgr_put() after 'out' tag in smcr_link_init() when link
initialization fails.
- Modify the location where smc connection holds the lgr or link.
before:
* hold lgr in smc_lgr_register_conn().
* hold link in smcr_lgr_conn_assign_link().
after:
* hold both lgr and link in smc_conn_create().
Modify the location to symmetrical with the place where smc connections
put the lgr or link, which is smc_conn_free().
- Initialize conn->freed as zero in smc_conn_create().
