I do not understand why you put some operations under spin lock. Have you checked what each of these spin locks protects? Please check and try to lock as minimum as possible. > + bitmap_set_value(old, 64, state[0], width[0], 0); > + bitmap_set_value(old, 64, state[1], width[1], width[0]); > + bitmap_replace(new, old, bits, mask, gc->ngpio); > + > + bitmap_set_value(old, 64, state[0], 32, 0); > + bitmap_set_value(old, 64, state[1], 32, 32); > + state[0] = bitmap_get_value(new, 0, width[0]); > + state[1] = bitmap_get_value(new, width[0], width[1]); > + bitmap_set_value(new, 64, state[0], 32, 0); > + bitmap_set_value(new, 64, state[1], 32, 32); > + bitmap_xor(changed, old, new, 64); Original code and this is cryptic. Can you add a few comments explaining what is going on here? > + spin_unlock(&chip->gpio_lock[1]); > + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&chip->gpio_lock[0], flags); -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
