Hi, when 8250 driver calls uart_write_wakeup(), the tty port lock is already taken. hci_ldisc.c's implementation of ->write_wakeup() calls tty->ops->write() to actually send the characters, but that call will try to acquire the same port lock again. Looking at other line disciplines that looks like a bug in hci_ldisc.c. Am I correct to assume that ->write_wakeup() is supposed to *just* wakeup the bottom half so we handle ->write() in another context ? Is it legal to call tty->ops->write() from within ->write_wakeup() ? cheers -- balbi
