zram: close race by open overriding
[ Original patch from Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> ] Commit ba6b17d6 ("zram: fix umount-reset_store-mount race condition") introduced bdev->bd_mutex to protect a race between mount and reset. At that time, we don't have dynamic zram-add/remove feature so it was okay. However, as we introduce dynamic device feature, bd_mutex became trouble. CPU 0 echo 1 > /sys/block/zram<id>/reset -> kernfs->s_active(A) -> zram:reset_store->bd_mutex(B) CPU 1 echo <id> > /sys/class/zram/zram-remove ->zram:zram_remove: bd_mutex(B) -> sysfs_remove_group -> kernfs->s_active(A) IOW, AB -> BA deadlock The reason we are holding bd_mutex for zram_remove is to prevent any incoming open /dev/zram[0-9]. Otherwise, we could remove zram others already have opened. But it causes above deadlock problem. To fix the problem, this patch overrides block_device.open and it returns -EBUSY if zram asserts he claims zram to reset so any incoming open will be failed so we don't need to hold bd_mutex for zram_remove ayn more. This patch is to prepare for zram-add/remove feature.
