We have for each socket :

One spinlock (sk_slock.slock)
One rwlock (sk_callback_lock)

Possible scenarios are :

(A) (this is used in net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c)
read_lock(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock) (without blocking BH)
&lt;BH&gt;
spin_lock(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_slock.slock);
...
read_lock(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock);
...

(B)
write_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)
stuff
write_unlock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)

(C)
spin_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_slock)
...
write_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)
stuff
write_unlock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)
spin_unlock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_slock)

This (C) case conflicts with (A) :

CPU1 [A]                         CPU2 [C]
read_lock(callback_lock)
&lt;BH&gt;                             spin_lock_bh(slock)
&lt;wait to spin_lock(slock)&gt;
                                 &lt;wait to write_lock_bh(callback_lock)&gt;

We have one problematic (C) use case in inet_csk_listen_stop() :

local_bh_disable();
bh_lock_sock(child); // spin_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_slock)
WARN_ON(sock_owned_by_user(child));
...
sock_orphan(child); // write_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)

lockdep is not happy with this, as reported by Tetsuo Handa

It seems only way to deal with this is to use read_lock_bh(callbacklock)
everywhere.

Thanks to Jarek for pointing a bug in my first attempt and suggesting
this solution.

This code allows RDS to be tunneled over a TCP connection.

RDMA operations are disabled when using TCP transport,
but this frees RDS from the IB/RDMA stack dependency, and allows
it to be used with standard Ethernet adapters, or in a VM.
