[PATCH 2/2] Fix possible race in destroy_and_reserve_irq()

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

 



Currently, destroy_and_reserve_irq() sets irq_status[irq] UNUSED using
clear_irq_vector() and sets irq_status[irq] RSVD using reserve_irq().
But there is a race window because vector_lock is once released between
them. This patch fixes this race window.
