| H A D | rtasd.c | diff 3e401f7a2e5199151f735aee6a5c6b4776e6a35e Tue Jun 20 17:08:30 CDT 2017 Thiago Jung Bauermann <bauerman@linux.vnet.ibm.com> powerpc: Only obtain cpu_hotplug_lock if called by rtasd
Calling arch_update_cpu_topology from a CPU hotplug state machine callback
hits a deadlock because the function tries to get a read lock on
cpu_hotplug_lock while the state machine still holds a write lock on it.
Since all callers of arch_update_cpu_topology except rtasd already hold
cpu_hotplug_lock, this patch changes the function to use
stop_machine_cpuslocked and creates a separate function for rtasd which
still tries to obtain the lock.
Michael Bringmann investigated the bug and provided a detailed analysis
of the deadlock on this previous RFC for an alternate solution:
