This patch adds the missing rwsem calls around it.I see the comment above snd_ctl_remove() that says you must hold the write lock. And given that, this seems correct to me. I understand why you want to take the lock just once, rather than each time snd_ctl_remove() is called. However I believe the acquisition and release of the lock belongs inside gbaudio_remove_controls(), not in its caller. If you disagree, can you please explain why?In general if the function returns an error and has a loop inside, taking a lock in the caller side avoids the forgotten unlock.
But taking the lock in the called function makes the caller not need to take the lock (which would be even more valuable if there were more than one caller). I prefer having the lock acquisition in the called function. Please send version 2, as I suggested. -Alex
TakashiOtherwise, will you please submit version two, taking the lock inside gbaudio_remove_controls()? Thanks. -AlexFixes: 510e340efe0c ("staging: greybus: audio: Add helper APIs for dynamic audio modules") Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/staging/greybus/audio_helper.c | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/greybus/audio_helper.c b/drivers/staging/greybus/audio_helper.c index 1ed4772d2771..843760675876 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/greybus/audio_helper.c +++ b/drivers/staging/greybus/audio_helper.c @@ -192,7 +192,11 @@ int gbaudio_remove_component_controls(struct snd_soc_component *component, unsigned int num_controls) { struct snd_card *card = component->card->snd_card; + int err; - return gbaudio_remove_controls(card, component->dev, controls, - num_controls, component->name_prefix); + down_write(&card->controls_rwsem); + err = gbaudio_remove_controls(card, component->dev, controls, + num_controls, component->name_prefix); + up_write(&card->controls_rwsem); + return err; }
