Hi Rusty, Today's linux-next merge of the rr tree got a conflict in arch/um/drivers/hostaudio_kern.c between commit 90dc763fef4c869e60b2a7ad92e1a7dab68575ea ("sound: push BKL into open functions") from the sound tree and commit 6aad4054c113f2d8a8bbdee64e7167950dd06c92 ("param:lock-charp-simple") from the rr tree. Overlapping additions. I fixed it up (see below) and carry the fix as necessary. I was not sure if the kparam_(un)block_sysfs_write() calls needed to be surrounded by the (un)lock_kernel() calls or vice verse. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx diff --cc arch/um/drivers/hostaudio_kern.c index 68142df,162855c..0000000 --- a/arch/um/drivers/hostaudio_kern.c +++ b/arch/um/drivers/hostaudio_kern.c @@@ -199,10 -200,9 +201,12 @@@ static int hostaudio_open(struct inode if (file->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE) w = 1; + lock_kernel(); + kparam_block_sysfs_write(dsp); ret = os_open_file(dsp, of_set_rw(OPENFLAGS(), r, w), 0); + kparam_unblock_sysfs_write(dsp); + unlock_kernel(); + if (ret < 0) { kfree(state); return ret; @@@ -258,13 -258,15 +262,17 @@@ static int hostmixer_open_mixdev(struc if (file->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE) w = 1; + lock_kernel(); + kparam_block_sysfs_write(mixer); ret = os_open_file(mixer, of_set_rw(OPENFLAGS(), r, w), 0); + kparam_unblock_sysfs_write(mixer); + unlock_kernel(); if (ret < 0) { + kparam_block_sysfs_write(dsp); printk(KERN_ERR "hostaudio_open_mixdev failed to open '%s', " "err = %d\n", dsp, -ret); + kparam_unblock_sysfs_write(dsp); kfree(state); return ret; } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
