Well, I was thinking get_current_buffer could race with reset_current_buffer, but these functions are doing plain readl() and writel() (i.e. not read-modify-write), so they are atomic operations. So never mind this either. >> } >> EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(ipu_idmac_get_current_buffer); >> >> @@ -569,10 +583,14 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(ipu_idmac_wait_busy); >> >> int ipu_wait_interrupt(struct ipu_soc *ipu, int irq, int ms) >> { >> - unsigned long timeout; >> + unsigned long flags, timeout; >> >> timeout = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(ms); >> + >> + spin_lock_irqsave(&ipu->lock, flags); >> ipu_cm_write(ipu, BIT(irq % 32), IPU_INT_STAT(irq / 32)); >> + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&ipu->lock, flags); >> + >> while (!(ipu_cm_read(ipu, IPU_INT_STAT(irq / 32) & BIT(irq % 32)))) { >> if (time_after(jiffies, timeout)) >> return -ETIMEDOUT; > This is a write to clear register, the only other place it is accessed > is by the regmap irq handler. Can you think of a scenario where this > lock would protect anything? In this case I do see potential problems. What if thread A calls ipu_wait_interrupt() while thread B is currently looping through irq status bits in ipu_irq_handle()? A has now cleared an irq status before B has had a chance to get to that status bit. Thus the irq status is missed and the irq not handled. That being said this patch will not fix the problem because ipu_wait_interrupt() and ipu_irq_handle() are under different locks. Maybe the solution is to verify ipu_wait_interrupt() is never called on enabled irqs so that it doesn't interfere with irq handling. But I don't know that that is true, is it?
