From c3f9bf628bc7edda298897d952f5e761137229c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Maor Gottlieb Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2016 00:33:00 +0300 Subject: [PATCH 1/1] net/mlx5_core: Fix soft lockup in steering error flow In the error flow of adding flow rule to auto-grouped flow table, we call to tree_remove_node. tree_remove_node locks the node's parent, however the node's parent is already locked by mlx5_add_flow_rule and this causes a deadlock. After this patch, if we failed to add the flow rule, we unlock the flow table before calling to tree_remove_node. fixes: f0d22d187473 ('net/mlx5_core: Introduce flow steering autogrouped flow table') Signed-off-by: Maor Gottlieb Reported-by: Amir Vadai Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed Signed-off-by: David S.
