ipv6: addrconf: Fix recursive spin lock call
A rcu stall with the following backtrace was seen on a system with forwarding, optimistic_dad and use_optimistic set. To reproduce, set these flags and allow ipv6 autoconf. This occurs because the device write_lock is acquired while already holding the read_lock. Back trace below - INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU { 1} (t=2100 jiffies g=3992 c=3991 q=4471) <6> Task dump for CPU 1: <2> kworker/1:0 R running task 12168 15 2 0x00000002 <2> Workqueue: ipv6_addrconf addrconf_dad_work <6> Call trace: <2> [<ffffffc000084da8>] el1_irq+0x68/0xdc <2> [<ffffffc000cc4e0c>] _raw_write_lock_bh+0x20/0x30 <2> [<ffffffc000bc5dd8>] __ipv6_dev_ac_inc+0x64/0x1b4 <2> [<ffffffc000bcbd2c>] addrconf_join_anycast+0x9c/0xc4 <2> [<ffffffc000bcf9f0>] __ipv6_ifa_notify+0x160/0x29c <2> [<ffffffc000bcfb7c>] ipv6_ifa_notify+0x50/0x70 <2> [<ffffffc000bd035c>] addrconf_dad_work+0x314/0x334 <2> [<ffffffc0000b64c8>] process_one_work+0x244/0x3fc <2> [<ffffffc0000b7324>] worker_thread+0x2f8/0x418 <2> [<ffffffc0000bb40c>] kthread+0xe0/0xec v2: do addrconf_dad_kick inside read lock and then acquire write lock for ipv6_ifa_notify as suggested by Eric Fixes: 7fd2561e4ebdd ("net: ipv6: Add a sysctl to make optimistic addresses useful candidates") CRs-Fixed: 970640 Change-Id: I2d8ef58108e2ab29594bd0179af8523eaea6fff9 Cc: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Erik Kline <ek@google.com> Cc: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan <subashab@codeaurora.org> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
