[patch] TTY/n_gsm: potential double lock

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

 



In gsm_dlci_data_kick() we call gsm_dlci_data_sweep() with the
"gsm->tx_lock" held so we can't lock it again inside
gsm_dlci_data_sweep().  I removed that lock from and added one to 
gsmld_write_wakeup() instead.  The sweep function is only called from
those two places.
