[PATCH] scsi: ips: Fix potential deadlock on host->host_lock

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

 



Hard interrupt do_ipsintr() could introduce double locks on
host->host_lock.

<Deadlock #1>
ips_eh_abort()
--> spin_loc(host->host_lock)
<interrupt>
   --> do_ipsintr()
   --> spin_lock(host->host_lock)

This flaw was found by an experimental static analysis tool I am
developing for irq-related deadlock.

To prevent the potential deadlock, the patch use spin_lock_irqsave()
on host->host_lock.
