[PATCH] dmaengine: coh901318: Fix a double lock bug in dma_tc_handle()

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

 



The caller is already holding the lock so this will deadlock.

Fixes: 0b58828c923e ("DMAENGINE: COH 901 318 remove irq counting")

This is the second double lock bug found using static analysis.  The
previous one was commit 627469e4445b ("dmaengine: coh901318: Fix a
double-lock bug").

The fact that this has been broken for ten years suggests that no one
has the hardware.
