[ Upstream commit5d60331161] Fix the race between load and unload a kernel module. sys_delete_module() try_stop_module() mod->state = _GOING add_unformed_module() old = find_module_all() (old->state == _GOING => wait_event_interruptible()) During pre-condition finished_loading() rets 0 schedule() (never gets waken up later) free_module() mod->state = _UNFORMED list_del_rcu(&mod->list) (dels mod from "modules" list) return The race above leads to modprobe hanging forever on loading a module. Error paths on loading module call wake_up_all(&module_wq) after freeing module, so let's do the same on straight module unload. Fixes:6e6de3dee5("kernel/module.c: Only return -EEXIST for modules that have finished loading") Reviewed-by: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Konstantin Khorenko <khorenko@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Jessica Yu <jeyu@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
