    Subject[PATCH 5.4 160/320] usb: gadget: f_fs: Use stream_open() for endpoint files
    Date
    From: Pavankumar Kondeti <quic_pkondeti@quicinc.com>

    [ Upstream commit c76ef96fc00eb398c8fc836b0eb2f82bcc619dc7 ]

    Function fs endpoint file operations are synchronized via an interruptible
    mutex wait. However we see threads that do ep file operations concurrently
    are getting blocked for the mutex lock in __fdget_pos(). This is an
    uninterruptible wait and we see hung task warnings and kernel panic
    if hung_task_panic systcl is enabled if host does not send/receive
    the data for long time.

    The reason for threads getting blocked in __fdget_pos() is due to
    the file position protection introduced by the commit 9c225f2655e3
    ("vfs: atomic f_pos accesses as per POSIX"). Since function fs
    endpoint files does not have the notion of the file position, switch
    to the stream mode. This will bypass the file position mutex and
    threads will be blocked in interruptible state for the function fs
    mutex.

    It should not affects user space as we are only changing the task state
    changes the task state from UNINTERRUPTIBLE to INTERRUPTIBLE while waiting
    for the USB transfers to be finished. However there is a slight change to
    the O_NONBLOCK behavior. Earlier threads that are using O_NONBLOCK are also
    getting blocked inside fdget_pos(). Now they reach to function fs and error
    code is returned. The non blocking behavior is actually honoured now.
