This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled uio: uio_dmem_genirq: Fix deadlock between irq config and handling to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: uio-uio_dmem_genirq-fix-deadlock-between-irq-config-.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 3ee68aea3d494ee573ffe2162689207a9e696e06 Author: Rafael Mendonca <rafaelmendsr@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Sep 30 19:40:58 2022 -0300 uio: uio_dmem_genirq: Fix deadlock between irq config and handling [ Upstream commit 118b918018175d9fcd8db667f905012e986cc2c9 ] This fixes a concurrency issue addressed in commit 34cb27528398 ("UIO: Fix concurrency issue"): "In a SMP case there was a race condition issue between Uio_pdrv_genirq_irqcontrol() running on one CPU and irq handler on another CPU. Fix it by spin_locking shared resources access inside irq handler." The implementation of "uio_dmem_genirq" was based on "uio_pdrv_genirq" and it is used in a similar manner to the "uio_pdrv_genirq" driver with respect to interrupt configuration and handling. At the time "uio_dmem_genirq" was merged, both had the same implementation of the 'uio_info' handlers irqcontrol() and handler(), thus, both had the same concurrency issue mentioned by the above commit. However, the above patch was only applied to the "uio_pdrv_genirq" driver. Split out from commit 34cb27528398 ("UIO: Fix concurrency issue").
