BUT > won't this race with pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() when its call gets added > to ravb_close()? I re-checked it and, yes, this is true. A sync runtime suspend would be better here. But, as of my current investigation, even with this ravb_get_stats() can still race with ravb_open()/ravb_close() as they are called though different locking scheme (ravb_open()/ravb_close() is called with rtnl locked while ravb_get_stats() can be called only with dev_base_lock rwlock locked for reading). A mutex in the driver should to help with this. Thank you, Claudiu Beznea > >> + return &ndev->stats; >> + >> nstats = &ndev->stats; >> stats0 = &priv->stats[RAVB_BE]; >> > [...] > > MBR, Sergey >
