The pci_cfg_wait queue is used to prevent user-space config accesses to devices while they are recovering from reset. Previously we used these operations on pci_cfg_wait: __add_wait_queue(&pci_cfg_wait, ...) __remove_wait_queue(&pci_cfg_wait, ...) wake_up_all(&pci_cfg_wait) The wake_up acquires the wait queue lock, but the add and remove do not. Originally these were all protected by the pci_lock, butcdcb33f982("PCI: Avoid possible deadlock on pci_lock and p->pi_lock"), moved wake_up_all() outside pci_lock, so it could race with add/remove operations, which caused occasional kernel panics, e.g., during vfio-pci hotplug/unplug testing: Unable to handle kernel read from unreadable memory at virtual address ffff802dac469000 Resolve this by using wait_event() instead of __add_wait_queue() and __remove_wait_queue(). The wait queue lock is held by both wait_event() and wake_up_all(), so it provides mutual exclusion.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
