From 6e0c55ee6312997c4a21e3605b678aba3ab705bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2020 21:30:41 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 068/323] kthread: Move prio/affinite change into the newly
created thread
Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.10/older/patches-5.10.215-rt107.tar.xz
With enabled threaded interrupts the nouveau driver reported the
following:
| Chain exists of:
| &mm->mmap_lock#2 --> &device->mutex --> &cpuset_rwsem
|
| Possible unsafe locking scenario:
|
| CPU0 CPU1
| ---- ----
| lock(&cpuset_rwsem);
| lock(&device->mutex);
| lock(&cpuset_rwsem);
| lock(&mm->mmap_lock#2);
The device->mutex is nvkm_device::mutex.
Unblocking the lockchain at `cpuset_rwsem' is probably the easiest thing
to do.
Move the priority reset to the start of the newly created thread.
Fixes: 710da3c8ea7df ("sched/core: Prevent race condition between cpuset and __sched_setscheduler()")
