From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> If spin_lock_irqsave is called twice in a row with the same second argument, the interrupt state at the point of the second call overwrites the value saved by the first call. Indeed, the second call does not need to save the interrupt state, so it is changed to a simple spin_lock. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression lock1,lock2; expression flags; @@ *spin_lock_irqsave(lock1,flags) ... when != flags *spin_lock_irqsave(lock2,flags) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_bsg.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_bsg.c b/drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_bsg.c index f5d60b5..7260c3a 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_bsg.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_bsg.c @@ -3142,12 +3142,12 @@ lpfc_bsg_menlo_cmd_cmp(struct lpfc_hba *phba, job = menlo->set_job; job->dd_data = NULL; /* so timeout handler does not reply */ - spin_lock_irqsave(&phba->hbalock, flags); + spin_lock(&phba->hbalock); cmdiocbq->iocb_flag |= LPFC_IO_WAKE; if (cmdiocbq->context2 && rspiocbq) memcpy(&((struct lpfc_iocbq *)cmdiocbq->context2)->iocb, &rspiocbq->iocb, sizeof(IOCB_t)); - spin_unlock_irqrestore(&phba->hbalock, flags); + spin_unlock(&phba->hbalock); bmp = menlo->bmp; rspiocbq = menlo->rspiocbq; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
