From 699a11ba7ec869b006623182881f2f1f5b4aea53 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Brodkin Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2017 18:11:29 +0300 Subject: serial: 8250_port: Remove dangerous pr_debug() With CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG if dyndbg enables debug output in 8250_port.c deadlock happens inevitably on UART IRQ handling. That's the problematic execution path: ---------------------------->8------------------------ UART IRQ: serial8250_interrupt() -> serial8250_handle_irq(): lock "port->lock" -> pr_debug() -> serial8250_console_write(): bump in locked "port->lock". OR (if above pr_debug() gets removed): serial8250_tx_chars() -> pr_debug() -> serial8250_console_write(): bump in locked "port->lock". ---------------------------->8------------------------ So let's get rid of those not that much useful debug entries. Discussed problem could be easily reproduced with QEMU for x86_64. As well as this fix could be mimicked with muting of dynamic debug for the problematic lines as simple as: ---------------------------->8------------------------ dyndbg="+p; file 8250_port.c line 1756 -p; file 8250_port.c line 1822 -p" ---------------------------->8------------------------ Signed-off-by: Alexey Brodkin Cc: Jiri Slaby Cc: Peter Hurley Cc: Phillip Raffeck Cc: Anton Wuerfel Cc: "Matwey V.
