vlan: Fix lockdep warning when vlan dev handle notification
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
[ Upstream commit dc8eaaa ]

When I open the LOCKDEP config and run these steps:

modprobe 8021q
vconfig add eth2 20
vconfig add eth2.20 30
ifconfig eth2 xx.xx.xx.xx

then the Call Trace happened:

========================================================================

The reason is that all of the addr_lock_key for vlan dev have the same class,
so if we change the status for vlan dev, the vlan dev and its real dev will
hold the same class of addr_lock_key together, so the warning happened.

we should distinguish the lock depth for vlan dev and its real dev.

v1->v2: Convert the vlan_netdev_addr_lock_key to an array of eight elements, which
	could support to add 8 vlan id on a same vlan dev, I think it is enough for current
	scene, because a netdev's name is limited to IFNAMSIZ which could not hold 8 vlan id,
	and the vlan dev would not meet the same class key with its real dev.

	The new function vlan_dev_get_lockdep_subkey() will return the subkey and make the vlan
	dev could get a suitable class key.

v2->v3: According David's suggestion, I use the subclass to distinguish the lock key for vlan dev
	and its real dev, but it make no sense, because the difference for subclass in the
	lock_class_key doesn't mean that the difference class for lock_key, so I use lock_depth
	to distinguish the different depth for every vlan dev, the same depth of the vlan dev
	could have the same lock_class_key, I import the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH from the include/linux/sched.h,
	I think it is enough here, the lockdep should never exceed that value.

v3->v4: Add a huge array of locking keys will waste static kernel memory and is not a appropriate method,
	we could use _nested() variants to fix the problem, calculate the depth for every vlan dev,
	and use the depth as the subclass for addr_lock_key.
