[PATCH v2] PCI: endpoint: Use blocking notifier instead of atomic

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

 



The use of atomic notifier causes sleeping in atomic context bug when
the EPC core functions are used in the notifier chain. This is due to the
use of epc->lock (mutex) in core functions protecting the concurrent use of
EPC.

So switch to blocking notifier for getting rid of the bug as it runs in
non-atomic context and allows sleeping in notifier chain.
