Rearrange the sequence in pipe_write() so that the allocation of the new buffer, the allocation of a ring slot and the attachment to the ring is done under the pipe wait spinlock and then the lock is dropped and the buffer can be filled. The data copy needs to be done with the spinlock unheld and irqs enabled, so the lock needs to be dropped first. However, the reader can't progress as we're holding pipe->mutex. We also need to drop the lock as that would impact others looking at the pipe waitqueue, such as poll(), the consumer and a future kernel message writer. We just abandon the preallocated slot if we get a copy error. Future writes may continue it and a future read will eventually recycle it. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
