[PATCH] ata: Fix racy link clearance

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

 



The ap->sff_pio_task_link gets cleared in a racy way in
ata_sff_flush_pio_task().  This may lead to BUG_ON() check in the
work, and screw up the whole system.

Along with it, replace BUG_ON() with WARN_ON() and let the work quit
gracefully.  It's no end of the world, after all.
