[PATCH] serial: ifx6x60: add_timer is not safe in the mrdy_assert function

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

 



This patch make use of mod_timer instead of add_timer in the mrdy_assert function.
Because the srdy interrupter can go high when we are running function mrdy_assert and mrdy_assert
can be called by multi-entry. In our medfield platform, spi stress test can encounter this
error logs triggered by the BUG_ON of add_timer function.This patch had been tested on
our medfield platform.

the scenario:
      CPU0							CPU1
mrdy_assert
set_bit(IFX_SPI_STATE_TIMER_PENDING)
								ifx_spi_handle_srdy
								...
								clear_bit(IFX_SPI_STATE_TIMER_PENDING)
								...
								mrdy_assert
								set_bit(IFX_SPI_STATE_TIMER_PENDING)
								...
								add_timer
...
add_timer
