Add compiler barriers around modifications of the robust mutex list for pthread_mutex_trylock. [BZ #24180]
While debugging a kernel warning, Thomas Gleixner, Sebastian Sewior and
Heiko Carstens found a bug in pthread_mutex_trylock due to misordered
instructions:
140: a5 1b 00 01 oill %r1,1
144: e5 48 a0 f0 00 00 mvghi 240(%r10),0 <--- THREAD_SETMEM (THREAD_SELF, robust_head.list_op_pending, NULL);
14a: e3 10 a0 e0 00 24 stg %r1,224(%r10) <--- last THREAD_SETMEM of ENQUEUE_MUTEX_PI
vs (with compiler barriers):
140: a5 1b 00 01 oill %r1,1
144: e3 10 a0 e0 00 24 stg %r1,224(%r10)
14a: e5 48 a0 f0 00 00 mvghi 240(%r10),0
Please have a look at the discussion:
"Re: WARN_ON_ONCE(!new_owner) within wake_futex_pi() triggerede"
(https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190202112006.GB3381@osiris/)
This patch is introducing the same compiler barriers and comments
for pthread_mutex_trylock as introduced for pthread_mutex_lock and
pthread_mutex_timedlock by commit 8f9450a0b7a9e78267e8ae1ab1000ebca08e473e
"Add compiler barriers around modifications of the robust mutex list."
