[PATCH wireless-2.6] iwlegacy: fix channel switch locking

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

 



We use priv->mutex to avoid race conditions between chswitch_done()
and mac_channel_switch(), when marking channel switch in
progress. But chswitch_done() can be called in atomic context
from rx_csa() or with mutex already taken from commit_rxon().

To fix remove mutex from chswitch_done() and use atomic bitops
for marking channel switch pending.
