[PATCH v5 0/2] bus: mhi: host: Add lock to avoid race when ringing channel DB

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



1. We need a write lock in mhi_gen_tre otherwise there is race of the WP
used for ringing channel DB between mhi_queue and M0 transition.
2. We can not invoke local_bh_enable() when irqs are disabled, so move
read_lock_irqsave() under the mhi_gen_tre() since we add write_lock_bh() in
mhi_gen_tre().
3. Unlock xfer_cb to prevent potential lockup

v1 -> v2:
Added write_unlock_bh(&mhi_chan->lock) in mhi_gen_tre() before return
because of error process.

v2 -> v3:
1. split protecting WP and unlocking xfer_cb into two patches
2. Add a new patch to stop processing buffer and eventof a disabled or
stopped channel.

v3 -> v4:
1. Modify commit message
2. Add unlock operation before return error

v4 -> v5:
1. Squash "protecting WP" and "Take irqsave lock" into one patch
2. Drop patch 3/4 of patch v4
