[RFCv3] i2c: hold the core_lock for the whole execution of i2c_register_adapter()

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

 



From: Sławomir Stępień <slawomir.stepien@xxxxxxxxx>

There is a race condition between the i2c_get_adapter() and the
i2c_add_adapter() if this mutex isn't hold for the whole execution of
i2c_register_adapter().

If the mutex isn't locked, it is possible to find idr that points to
adapter that hasn't been registered yet (i.e. it's
kobj.state_initialized is still false), which will end up with warning
message:

"... is not initialized, yet kobject_get() is being called."

This patch will change how the locking is arranged around
i2c_register_adapter() call and will prevent such situations. The part
of the i2c_register_adapter() that do not need to be under the lock has
been moved to a new function i2c_process_adapter.

v1 -> v2:
* added return 0; just before out_reg label.
v2 -> v3
* email and server change, so it's not in base64 encoding.
