drbd: Fixed a deadlock, probably only affected UP machines
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
After disconnect (most likely mdev->net_cnt == 0) and we are
still in an unstable state (!drbd_state_is_stable()). When we
get an IO request in drbd_get_max_buffers() (called from
__inc_ap_bio_cond(), called from inc_ap_bio()) we wake up
misc_wait. Misc_wait is also used in inc_ap_bio() to sleep
until the outcome of __inc_ap_bio_cond() changes. => Busy loop!

Solution: Have a dedicated wait queue for get_net_conf() and
put_net_conf().
