Is this issue still present in kernel 2.6.15? I can't reproduce on 2.6.15-1.1948_FC5 (Fedora build). Ran my test program and yanked a couple of USB keys, several times, and could not get the module to get stuck. Ok, closing then. |
Distribution: Fedora Rawhide Hardware Environment: Dual Xeon Dell N Series Intel 82801DB/DBL/DBM UHCI controler Software Environment: Console Problem Description: Programs that attempt to open a usb-storage device while it is being pulled out will hang in the open call even if O_NONBLOCK is set. This becomes a problem for user space programs that poll devices to see if the media has changed (such as USB floppies and CD-ROMS). If a poll happens when the device is yanked out the application doing the polling will freeze in the disk wait state while the kernel continues to wait for a responce from the non-existant USB device. A test program and steps to reproduce have been posted to RedHat's bugzilla at http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=136255 Here is the kernel backtrace of the test: test D 00000001 2916 13507 11606 (NOTLB) eda7dde8 00000082 00000000 00000001 f7f75670 00000003 f6fd132c f7f75670 00000000 c18166c0 c1815d60 00000001 0000067c f488414c 000001ae f7f75670 f2fe6920 f2fe6a88 00000000 eda7de54 eda7de58 eda7de54 eda7de04 eda7de3c Call Trace: [<c02bfb8f>] wait_for_completion+0x94/0xcb [<c011cb6b>] default_wake_function+0x0/0xc [<f8bec093>] scsi_request_fn+0x2fa/0x30e [scsi_mod] [<c011cb6b>] default_wake_function+0x0/0xc [<f8beb1b3>] scsi_wait_req+0x5e/0x8c [scsi_mod] [<f8beb103>] scsi_wait_done+0x0/0x52 [scsi_mod] [<f8b27dc8>] sd_spinup_disk+0x66/0x266 [sd_mod] [<c02bfe40>] __cond_resched+0x14/0x39 [<f8b28958>] sd_revalidate_disk+0xc5/0x126 [sd_mod] [<c015b3cc>] check_disk_change+0x3f/0x59 [<f8b275ff>] sd_open+0x7a/0xf6 [sd_mod] [<c015b532>] do_open+0xe1/0x3b8 [<c015b88b>] blkdev_open+0x1a/0x42 [<c0153f83>] dentry_open+0xcd/0x1a5 [<c0153eb0>] filp_open+0x36/0x3c [<c02bfe40>] __cond_resched+0x14/0x39 [<c01b5a92>] direct_strncpy_from_user+0x3e/0x5d [<c01541af>] sys_open+0x31/0x7d [<c02c182b>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb
